    Rums with Less Vanilla

    Thanks guys. A lot of suggestions to look into. I know off hand there are a few suggested that I can pick up and might have to look around for others. I have the Goslings Black Seal. I very well could be mistaken on taste discription. I initially like it, but after taking a few drinks from...

    Jack Daniels Open Bottle

    Apparently there's a half bottle rule. This came up some time back and what I found was >= half full it'll stay good, though < half it turns for the worse. Don't worry though, I opened a bottle of my mother's homemade wine and took a nice big drink of vinegar. Still alive!

    Rums with Less Vanilla

    I damn near picked up Pusser's the last time at the store. You hit part of it, I am trying to get away from always picking a bottle of bourbon. So Pusser's and Zacapa to the list.

    Rums with Less Vanilla

    I trying my way around Rum though I am to much on the over powering vanilla I have gotten. I've drank a bottle of the CM Private Stock and working on a bottle of Goslings, but these seem to have too much of that vanilla than what I care for. I've had a bit of the Pyrat XO which did not seem to...

    Today's Joe/MC Afrique Uhuru - Size Difference?

    Well, http://www.joecigar.com/ shows it as 5 x 47 which looks correct. That's a good deal if you either like or what to try them. It's got me thinking of pulling the trigger.

    Smoking stogies and sinuses?

    This is the time of year for sinus issues. Many things can trigger it so a cigar here or there might be hard to blame for the problem. Though getting smoke into your sinuses can cause irritation. Leaving out a lot of details, my wife tried blaming cigars on my chronic sinus infections but it...

    Opinions of Nub Cigars

    Make sure to fully finish your sentences.:D I'm rarely afraid to try anything, except for crank, so I grabbed a Habano and smoked it while putting together a swing. It started out ok, but turned bad and got pretty hot. Just wasn't cutting it and I won't buy another. Now, there is a fan club...

    New here, Need humidor

    A wooden cigar box you can get from the local shop for either free or $2 would work just fine until you get the funds for something better. I'd offer to send something I used, but it wouldn't be much better than the cigar box and those are made with spanish cedar. If you do grab a box let me...

    What do you drink your whisk(e)y in?

    If I remember correctly the maker of Beam was in on the glass selection. They tasted bourbon out of numerous glasses until they found one that better allowed the bourbon to hit the back of your tongue just right. Personally I think they just wanted an excuse to drink all day. I do like the...

    Large Ring Guage

    While I've smoked 60'ish cigars and liked them they just aren't a staple in my humi. I prefer a robusto 50-52 overall and have grown to love lanceros. If you shun the thin RG because you do not feel it makes you look like the fat-cat in the eyes of on-lookers you are really missing out. Most...

    Ramon Allones Reserve Hermoso #2 maduro

    Nice review! And on a cigar that's off the beaten path. I've seen them and really wondered how they were.

    La Aroma DE Cuba

    I like this brand. Very good cigar with a fair price tag. I prefer the tube, Marguis. I actually about picked one up today while grabbing some things at the L-Barn. edited: I haven't even smoked one of these for some time so I need to fix that.

    IllinoisHoosier's Review Corner #1

    Great review, IH. This is a brand I have yet to try but with all the talk from many people I really need to give some of them a go. Unfortunately, or not, finding a morning smoke is somewhere 10-12yrs down the road. I don't know if you realized it, but there is a crazy-ass looking cat in the...
