    Choosing between cigars

    I just discovered this and it helps. Check out the cigars you like and rate them, 1, 2, 3 etc. Then see what the filler(s) tobacco is, the wrapper, and length can be an indicator, too! I have discovered that I like anything Nicaraguan...seems to fit my palate. So, now when I choose a cigar...

    Somehow, the Gurkha Grand Envoy was left off the list. For me, one of the best Gurkhas' ever! Great taste, great burn, great price. Dont miss this one! Ylo2na

    Anybody tried the Victor Sinclair...

    If you can buy a Victor Sinclair, buy it because it is worth the time for the price. Nice smoke. Especially like their tins for a short smoke. Again, they are worth it! Best, Ylo2na
