    Orange Slice in your area?

    Oh man, I used to love me some Orange Slice back in the day. The only thing better was Adirondack brand orange soda... that stuff was crack in a bottle.

    Favorite Famous Cigar Smoker

    I'm gonna have to go with Bill Clinton. His cigars always have a unique aroma I find oddly appealing.

    Cigars I am smoking on vacation

    I was staring at the beer bottle behind your cigar in the photo above... I'd never heard of "Outer Banks" beer, was getting all excited to try it next time I go down there. Then I realized... wait, that's just a koozie. :hn

    Cigars I am smoking on vacation

    Nice - I just got back from the OBX a couple of weeks ago. We were right near you, in Duck. I had a Torano one night too. :D

    Uh oh?

    Thanks for the info folks. I'll give them a call today but it's good to know that they're legit.

    Uh oh?

    Based on a review I read in a thread here, I bought some cigars from here: www.thecigarfo.com That was over two weeks ago... still no cigars, but they did charge my credit card. Should I be worried?

    Beer questions

    A tip for a budding beer aficionado - fresh from the tap is always better than bottled. Find a bar near you that has an assortment of microbrews on tap, and make sure it's a beer bar - when you look down the bar, you should see lots of people drinking pints, not a bunch of weenies with martinis...

    Are cutters worth it?

    I've tried just about every cutting method there is, spent way too much money on cutters (most of which I've managed to lose), and have finally settled on biting as my method of choice. "Biting" is really the wrong word for what I do, though... it's more like nibbling. I try to catch the edge of...

    Admit it

    About a year ago, CI had a one-day deal on Old Havana-brand cigars... I believe it was 40 cigars for $20, various sizes, some torpedos, etc. What made these cigars especially trashy was the bright red wrapper - the gimmick about them was that the wrapper had been cured in red wine, sort of like...

    Carlos Torano 1916 Cameroon Robusto

    I'm going to guess that you got it from Joe Cigar, as did I. Great deal, I thought ($25 for ten). I smoked one as soon as the package came on Saturday. I'm partial to Cameroons and this one was tasty. Now I'm wishing I'd doubled up on that deal; the only thing holding me back was that I'd only...

    CAO Italia

    Glad to hear I'm not crazy. After perusing the reviews in this section a bit more, I realized I left some info out of mine, so I'll include that here: Humi: 3 months @ 65% Size: 5 x 56 (Ciao) Drink: Labatt Blue Light, then an Ithaca Pale Ale once I realized I'd need to look elsewhere for...

    CAO Italia

    It was absolutely gorgeous outside yesterday, nicest day we've had so far this spring up here in Western NY. A bit brisk but sunny. I decided to throw a couple of logs in my chimenea and enjoy the first nice-weather smoke of the season (I've already hurriedly choked down a couple of small cigars...

    Cigars make me smarter

    Nice. I actually plowed through most of that book in one long day by the pool during my Florida vacation a few months back. Had a couple cigars in the process, of course. Hadn't read it since high school, great book. Attention scientists: where the #@$% is our soma?!
