    My local cigar bar

    WOW, Lots of action on this post. The reason this guy band cigarette smoke was this cigar bar is really for men only. The owner does not want women coming in and smoking cigarettes all night taking up bar space (its a small bar). The liquor selection is very high end. Its one of the truley top...

    My local cigar bar

    So my new local cigar bar has been open now for a couple of months. The owner has made a new rule "no cigarette smoking" I thought that was a very bold move.

    Need suggestions

    My 2nd son was born about 3 weeks ago. I bought a box of Partagas Lusitanias that I am going to smoke one on his b-day every year. If your a casual cigar smoker this might be a tough one. I do not think you could go wrong with the Padron 26th ann.

    Padron advice requested

    I consider Padron to be a one dimension line (this is not a bad thing) Padron 5000 & 6000 are in my regular rotation. You might want to try more complex cigars. Torano Exodus 1959 is a bit more complex Oliva Serie V is much more complex. Both of these are well priced smokes :2

    First Time w. San Cristobal

    Thanks for the Review I picked up a box of these a couple of months ago. I am very happy with them. The San Cristobal is a straight forward smoke that is very smooth. So If one is coming from smoking complex smokes and then trys one of these it can seem a bit uneventful. After my 3rd one I...

    Rocky Patel Vintage 1992 Churchill

    Great smoke & good review This cigar was a huge seller just a few years ago maybe it still is? I still think this is the best cigar out of Rocky's line up. My question is how does he not run out of tobacco from 1990 & 1992?

    Click & Mortars

    C&M makes a lot of sense to me. Online has changed a lot of business models. I think you either change with the times or lose revenues.

    Cigars for my wedding

    Fuente 8-5-8 will go over very well. If you go the CC route I would go with SLR series A. I broke out a box of these from 06 for my holiday party and everyone really really liked them.

    What's the highest/lowest you've paid..?

    I paid like $34 for Padron ann 80th Most inflated was Opus X fuente for $24....I don't go to that B&M anymore Lowest would have to cbid where I scored a 5 pack of Predomo Cuban something or nother for $4. They were the 60 gage cigars.

    Brother, You are not alone. I am currently going through my stock to see what I can get rid of. I think I have about 100 lose sticks that are going to have to go bye bye so I can buy a box of something special.
