I decided since my long road to become a Mason had finally started to take a turn towards my ultimate goal (being a Master Mason), that I needed a special cigar to commemorate such an occasion. Thankfully I have quite a few friends who are vintage cigar collectors, or snobs if you want to be a dick about it.
I consulted a good friend who never smokes anything younger than about 20 years. We talked on the phone for about an hour before I decided on what I wanted to purchase for the celebratory smoke when I am raised to Master Mason. I decided on an 80′s Dunhill Mojito. MRN reports that Dunhill was a rather short lived brand, only available from the late 80′s to 91 and imported into Hong Kong via Davidoff stores.
I decided on this particular Dunhill not only because a friend recommended it, but because I’ve read a lot of good reviews on it. Some have said it to be spicy and floral with hints of cedar, always maintaining vintage tobacco flavor and impeccable construction. This has been a “Holy Grail” cigar for me for sometime and I’m glad to finally have it, the Sunday I return from being raised a Master Mason — I will enjoy this fine cigar and if Max is nice, I might let him have a few pulls as well.
You can expect a review of this on the blog after it’s smoked and I return from Columbia.
