The different colored which changes from day to day... What are they and what do they symbolize? I know religious talk is prohibited so if you could just give me a direction I can Google that would be much appreciatedGood morning from Athens-Greece, we have sun and 74 'F here.
The beads are kompoloi:

What Pipe or Pipe Tobacco Did You Smoke Today? [pics]
I've never eaten Goat. Is it any good? Wes H. I once worked with a guy who made goat tacos . I tried one, the meat was a weird texture, almost like a clear jelly marbling. Not for me.

Escobar robusto. Nicaraguan puro. Nicaraguan habano filler, binder and ecuadorian habano wrapper. Supposed to be medium-full strength but i'm gonna say flat medium. The flavours are quite complex. Theres a little earth, some subtle spice, a little chocolate/cocoa, a touch of vanilla, hay and what i can only describe as asian herbs/spices? Overall not a bad smoke. 7/10

Kompoloi now is a personal item, helps you relax and think calmly, gives information about your status and artistic talent.
You don't pray with the kompoloi, the monks use different style with the Cross on it.

Mine are ''custom'' which means i buy the beads-cord-tassel, do some work in lathe machine plus with hand tools, each one is ''unique'' because are made in my requirements, you can find a similar in the market but 100% would not be the same.
As for Religion it's not a secret, first of all we are Greeks and the rest you can see it in our National flag and specifically in our Infantry flag.

First time smoking a special edition line cigar. Gurkha year of the snake (oscar valladares) honduran version. Nice smoke, not too big on gurkhas but this tastes just like a camacho tbh. Was £55 but the women in the cigar shop gave me a crazy discount and i got it for £20. Can't complain!

Dug into the very back and bottom of my humidor and found this lonely cuban deep in the deep dark depths. Trinidad coloniales. Its been a while since i smoked a decent cuban that was well constructed. Very nice smoke lasted about 1hr. As with all cubans It could've done with a few years of age. I believe it had been in the humidor for around 1 year. I will have to empty the humidor out and re-organize it soon, just to see what other suprises are waiting for me in there!

Tatuaje Havana VI Verocú Blue No. 2. Said to be a Nicaraguan-grown Corojo 99 rosado wrapper around Nicaraguan fillers. Nice medium profile. A bit pepperier than I usually like, but the overall balance was nice and a welcome change from the usual Tatuaje fare of full flavored everything.
