Igloo 120qt!!!!!

Just ask yourself; If they were really pre-embargo, would they really be selling them on CI?

Thanks d00d!

Sorry to thread jack but I don't feel like starting my own thread for a quick question. Of the Tatuaje cigars, which would you guys consider to have the least amount of spice?

If it were me. For the smoke in 9 months I'd buy a box of Padron Londres. They come in boxes of 26 and can be easily found online for under $60. I'd buy a box of Cuban Monte #2 to set aside long term.

For something that's supposed to be so bad for you, there sure are a lot of old guys sitting around puffing on cigars. I figure just smoke in moderation and you'll be fine. If cigars give you cancer then you were going to get cancer anyway.

I spoke with the Padilla rep at West Coast Cigar's Padilla tasting regarding how the maduro's look a little blotchy. What he told me was that Padilla does not use any artificial methods to darken their Maduro leafs other then the natural fermentation. No steaming, cooking, or dyes. However...

I just turned 30 a couple of weeks ago. My two birthday smokes was an Opus X and a PAM 26.

My cooler is filled with little humidors. Works great.

The Cigar Factory Outlet (CFO) Kermit Candela Toro I've never had a Candela before. I was ordering a sampler pack of the Nub Alts at wwwthecigarfo.com and I saw they had 5 packs of Candela Toros. They're cheap, only $1.50 a stick, so I ordered a pack. Fast forward to about a month later, I...

Last week I had my first Series 68. Since then I've smoked four of the lanceros. Yesterday I ordered two boxes of the Torpedo. Yeah, I like them.

Adding moisture is easy. Just make sure your humidor seals up tight.
