Just came back from the B&M - Opus Forbidden X gift boxes (4 sticks) $160. You have to be kidding me?

Have the day off! Just because a couple of great botls are celebrating their birthdays today, I fired up a space heater in my garage and started today with a PAM 64 principe. Smoked it down to the serial numbers.:D Going to follow-up with a Pad 3000 M now. Then it is off to Costco. Going...

Home early today: Started with a PAN 64 Principe, followed quickly by a Punch Gran Puro Santa Rita and then for kicks smoked a Padron 5000 Maddie. Oh yeah! Feeling pretty good right now. Have time to take a shower (to hide the smell) get my daughter from her volleyball game and then if all...

This one has been sitting in my humi for almost a month now. Came home early from work today and decided to light it. Smelled great. The cap cracked slightly when I punched it, but nothing serious and the draw is pretty good. Very soft feel to the first half of the stick, though the second...

I remember when I first joined up back in September of last year that someone ran a poll asking for members to input the number of cigars that they currently had in their humis/cabs. At the time I think that I had between 75-100 sticks, but now the count is well over 300. I'm curious if some...

Got home just before the UPS guy. Box of Henry Clay Grandes (6 X 50), a fiver of CAO Piranhas and a 4 pack of Monte Platinum #2 petite. I feel pretty good about now. Cbid order should come tomorrow. A couple of fivers in there. I'm really starting to enjoy my Vicksburg humi. Just open the...

:w Took a cigar into work today in order to have something to smoke on the during the hour long commute home. Weather was perfect, nearly 60 degrees when I left work. Lit that Padron 2000 in the parking lot and it didn't give me any trouble until I turned into our housing area about an hour...

Montecristo Platinum series #5: 4 x 45: Dominican: med-full: Picked this up from JR as part of a special, 4 tins of 4 or something like that. Smoked this last Friday when I needed a quick one before taking the family to see the latest Harry Potter film. Cut easily, lit easy, great draw and...

Montecristo Afrique Jambo Jambo: 6 X 50 parejo: Dominican: Med-full: Picked this five pack up from JR. Had less than 2 weeks in my humi. Smelled great before lighting. (still too much of a newbie to detect anything special) Lit easy and had a nice draw. Strong flavor and good buzz during...

I think that it was a 6 x 48 but maybe 6 1/2, I forget and I have had 2/3 bottle of wine. This was my second cigar of the night and by far the better. The first was a LGC Corona that burned my throat and I quit smoking after 45 minutes of ho hum. I am really glad that a colleague turned me on...

CAO Extreme Robusto: 5.00 X 50; $3.50 with shipping from JR, advertised as a medium-full strength. This was my second smoke tonight. I rushed it somewhat and the cigar came right out of the shipping package. It was a good all around smoke with excellent flavor throughout but could use some...

Smoked this one after a heavy dinner and a couple glasses of red wine. I just opened this five pack tonight, decided to smoke one so they will only get better with time which is saying a lot because I really enjoyed the smoke. 6.25 X 45 advertised as a medium strength cigar. I believe that I...

After a heavy dinner tonight, spaghetti and some red wine, I started out with a Sancho Panza Caballero, then followed up with a CAO Extreme Robusto. Needless to say, thanks to the dinner I enjoyed a couple of hours of smoking heaven. Normally this combo would have put me on my rear end. I...

While down in Honduras last week I picked up a box of: Puros Indios Cigars Maxima Reserva Especial Churchill No. 48 Has anyone ever tried these? I looked for them on JR but couldn't find them. If no one else has tried them, I guess I will have to post a review.

Just won my second auction of the day and am winning a third, plus I ordered 3 five packs...My wife is going to crush me when the package/bill arrives. I ended up with: H.Upmann Reserve No.1 Sancho Panza Glorioso 5 Pack of CAO Extreme Robusto; Sancho Panza Caballero; and Sancho Panza Double...

I know that a lot of apes don't appreciated JR, but I noticed that they have recently started up their own auction site. Probably a result of the popularity of cbid and ebay. I have put in a couple of bids on some cigars that I have never smoked more to see how their site works than anything...
