Happy Monday, folks!  

I just received my box of Lampert 1675 Edicion Azul and am beyond hyped. It’s got me curious how many other people look forward to releases by specific blenders or factories like I do. Is there something that you follow as well and have to try the latest and greatest from? 

Who Gets You Hyped?

Indiana Ortez first entered my circles with the PSyKo SEVEN Nicaragua blend, but she produced other blends like Father, Friends, & Fire that I've since tracked down and enjoyed as well. 

P7N is an incredible cigar, and an experience that I still seek out as often as possible. In fact, out of everything in my humidor I smoke more of the Patina Connecticut Churchill, Juarez OBS, and PSyKo SEVEN Nicaragua Robusto / Toro than anything else. These blends are my cigar versions of comfort food – always hitting the right spot at the right time. 

So, when I found out that she was behind the blending of this Edicion Azul by Lampert 1675, you bet your ass that I had to grab a box and see what it’s all about. This time I picked up the Robusto size, but I fully intend to grab a box of Toro as well. Just like P7N, I expect the minor changes between the two blends to be something that I will cherish over time. 

What about you? Have someone that you’re following these days and always want to see what they’re up to? We’d love to hear your thoughts whether it’s a blender, factory, brand, or region!
