    Been thinking about buying one of these. Anyone have one? Your thoughts on this humi? Thanks!

    Barbara is a wonderful lady. You just can't beat great customer service! Too bad so many companies don't offer it today. I will say that I've found great customer service from numerous cigar firms. I guess this is a happy industry! Makes sense.

    Here's the unfortunate way I discovered this was a short filler cigar. I clipped the head and the delicate wrapper immediately split. Since the double corona vitola is a massive 7.5 incher I was going to clip it again lower below the split wrapper and then --BANG-- cigar explosion of fine...

    Pmagus, could you let us know which of your selections are long leaf and which are short filler? I think the flavor of your mature dark #7 blend is very good, but I don't dig the short filler. Since your website didn't call these sticks short filler I assumed they were long filler. But who...

    I concur with the medium body. Not really leaning toward the full side of things for me. Too bad the construction isn't better and the stick isn't long filler. That would have pushed it over the top for me. I just find it hard to get too excited about short fillers. But you get what you...

    Just got mine in the mail yesterday. I ordered the Mature #7 dark blend double corona (huge 7.5 x 50 vitola). Construction is average. Some dead unfilled spots just below the wrapper, delicate wrapper has a split on the foot of many cigars, seems to be a short filler (small pieces not long...

    The wait is killing me! I'm anxious to find out if I've found something great here. :ss

    Gotta have one for that fresh off the truck taste (good or bad) but will reserve judgement and give the other 49 in my wheel a fair chance.

    They do need to work on their logistics. The shipping is very slow, but if they provide a good quality stick for 60 cents I'm certainly willing to wait. I'm going to fire one up the second it hits my doorstep.

    Let me know about those "This is not a short story" sticks when you have a chance to burn one. I almost ordered that as well, and want to know how good they are. Thanks!

    I'm anxiously awaiting my bundle as well. If these smokes are decent (I assume they are based on posts here) they could be an industry altering product. Kind of like what online brokers did to stock trading, and what discount Real Estate brokers like Assist2Sell did to home selling; if this...

    What's the WORST cigar you've ever had?

    Thompson house brands are repulsive. When I was new to cigars I ordered a cheap $20 bundle with free humidor. The humidor has served me quite well over the years, but the cheap sticks were disgusting. Never ordered from them again. They should be ashamed to put their company name on such an...

    What's the WORST cigar you've ever had?

    I'd say the most unsmokeable dog rocket I've ever had was cigars from a Quorum bundle I bought at the B&M. Just absolutely horrid! Avoid at all costs. This cigar may be cheap, but it sure as heck isn't a bargain! I wouldn't say that Te-Amo is unsmokable, but I've never had one I enjoyed...

    I ordered a wheel of the 1-year aged dark rosado double coronas. Unfortunately they were sold out of the torpedo vitola I most prefer. Can't wait to give these a try based on what you all have to say. I've been getting by with three small desktop wooden humi's thus far, but now I may be...
