May 28th 2012 - Room 101 Namakubi

Today brings us the Room 101 Namkubi in a 4x48 Roxxo vitola. The Namakubi is a special limited release blend by Matt Booth. The Namakubi has an Ecuadorian Habano wrapper with a Honduran binder with Honduran and Dominican fillers. The Namakubi features notes of espresso, wood and leather throughout with a slightly sweet finish to round out it's balanced complexity. I chose this to be today's Memorial Day Cigar. Matt Booth is a veteran of the Marine Corps Infantry so I saw no better cigar for today. I hope everyone and their families have a great and safe holiday weekend. I ask that you all take a moment and remember why it is that we have Memorial Day. Many brave Americans have fought for our freedom and have paid the ultimate sacrifice by giving their lives for their country. You may be gone but you and your sacrifices will always be remembered! Thank you for all you did...
