Cigar Guys - Any Here?

2 weeks? At least 100!!!

 

Im down to 2 cigars in the humidor. I go thru about a box a year (xmas to xmas) but this year, I am smoking them more. So, right now I am smoking Padron's (4000s i think) i like a pretty good size ring gauge (52?) and at least 6 in. the 4000s are 54 x 6.5in

i used to smoke 'Cristos, but they were pricey and they just didnt burn good.. prob had a bad batch or something

can anyone convince me to buy otherwise (keep it under $135 for a box)

 

Thanks Darth for the reference.

awesome!! The fuertes are amazing!!

 

Too ****ing funny.............

 

you are burning a little unevenly. Torch the other side a little...

 

I had one earlier, but like DR.SL said, it's way to f'n hot to be smokin. I shall wait till it cools down to enjoy the rest. I will say these are the freshest cigars I've ever purchased.

 

and you call yourself committed....

I've smoked outside when it is 2 degrees. Get back out there and smoke that damn cigar!

 

haha!

 

Just had a Punch Asian Market. Damn good cigar.

 

Now that I am in LOS I am enjoying a NICE R&J Churchill!!!


Mmmmmmmm.........

 

HERE HERE, I SECOND THAT.....................



P.S.

****ing hilarious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You owe me one pair of boxers.

 

A little windy out here by the ocean.....How's that torrential downpour treatin' ya?

 

OK guys, I need some advice.

I just got back from a Euro trip where I enjoyed a fine Habana cigar almost daily. Now that I'm back in the states, I lit up one of my go to's (Montecristo White Churchill) and it tasted like a 7 eleven cigar. Am I ruined?? I was only able to bring back a handfull of the good stuff. What LEGAL cigars can I smoke that are somewhat up to par with the Cubans? I smoked Monte #2s, Cohiba Maduros, Partagas D, etc. while over the pond. I am going through withdrawal...

 

Yes. Now get down on your knees and thank God for that.

You're developing your palate and that's a good thing. No going back to the standard General Cigar line-up that has the complexity of rolled newspaper.

There are lots of great cigars to choose from out there. I suggest you sample as many as you can and discover what you like. For stuff you can get at your corner store I suggest giving a few Tatuaje cigars a try. I'm VERY partial to the brown label and the East/West. I think you'll find they make a wonderful smoke for the price. Also, Rocky Patel has done a very nice job with the Olde World Reserve line, my personal favorite is the natural torpedo.

You've discovered you have some taste(congrats, not everybody does!) now begins the life-long and very rewarding journey of discovering your favorite smokes. Good hunting.

 

Thanks for the insight Tyler. I have been smoking for years and thought I had tried just about everything but I guess not... Looks like I'll be hunting out some Tatuaje's very soon.

 

Swisher Sweets are pretty close! Don't let the cheap price throw you!

 

Also, I have been seeing some trumpeting the Lone Wolf cigars. Are these worth a try?

 

send me some cohiba maduros, and the underwear will be in the mail...

 

you are lucky to have found the cohiba maduros

 

YES!!

 

I leave for Alaska on thursday. I've got two boxes of all three..............trade ya............

 

what size underwear are you??

 

Try the La Gloria Cubano Serie R in both natural and maduro, the AVO Signature and Domain, Diamond Crown Maximus, Ashton VSG, various Padrons, and some of the different Camachos.

These are some of my favorites, I haven't found anything that can duplicate Cubans but I have found some cigars that are very good.

In trying new things you will find a lot of things you don't like. Today I had a Gurkha special Nicaraguan warlord and a Montecristo series C. I didn't like either one. They were both kind of bland with no flavors that I could detect. I like strong peppery cigars for the most part. I will smoke a milder one if it is flavorful I find the Ashton VSG fits in this category for me
