I like to smoke cigars before, after, and during dinner, especially when there’s cheese and charcuterie on the table.
I liked how this Don Rafa kept me company. Good smoke. Nice draw. Modest. It went perfectly well with the peated single malt whisky I was having.

Columbus cigars. How many of them have I smoked? I lost count a long time ago.
The Churchill vitola is probably my favorite from their Regular Line, but I had quite a few Perfectos, too. They go well with lager and pilsner and that makes them great cigars to smoke with friends. I also remember I smoked one with my coffee the morning after my wedding night. So, this stick will always have a special place in my heart.
Columbus cigars, as I have said before, are unpretentious cigars, and that’s why I like them. They are high-quality; they are dependable; and, most importantly, they are very affordable.
I don’t mind smoking one every now and then. I don’t mind that at all.

Every man needs to befriend solitude.
I know a lot of people who can’t stand being alone. And I don’t understand that. Sartre would say they are in bad company.
Being alone means being with yourself. Being alone means to have a conversation with yourself. It means being yourself.
When I meet new people, I ask, “What do you do when you’re alone.” If I don’t like their answer, I don’t become their friend. People who say they get bored when they’re alone are actually saying that they bore themselves.
I never bore myself, and I like being alone. In fact, the only time I am not bored is when I am alone.
It is sad that people bore me. Most of them, at least. And that’s why I am bored most of the time. And, when they’re around, I like to drink.
