    What NC is most like an ISOM stick?

    I'd like to add the 1968 robusto to your suggestion. While it's not a CC, it has that "tang". I'm gonna have to find the lancero, thanks for the tip. AND BLUEFACE- That's a fantastic photo of Pepin. Thanks so much for posting it. It made my day! Question, is that what a Cuban Sandwich is?:D

    Cigar Roller for wedding? Any info appreciated

    From experience, I'd say get a couple of boxes of decent smokes and set them up somewhere so the guests can help themselves. They will quickly disappear as a lot of guests will do two things. The first is fire one up then leave it almost whole somewhere so when you see it you'll be a bit pissed...

    An observation about aged NCs

    Please tell me where this playground is. I've got a monkey on my back and he won't let go. (Or is that a gorilla?) Prehaps a quote is in order: "So long as the laws remain such as they are today, employ some discretion: loud opinion forces us to do so; but in privacy and silence let us...

    An observation about aged NCs

    Mr. Skibum, I have read his original post and you are correct that there is no "direct evidence" that our friend sells CC's. There does, however, appear to be something implied here. Just my opinion, prehaps I am mistaken. I was attempting to offer some friendly advice that it is a known fact...

    An observation about aged NCs

    So you are in the DC area and you've had no problem selling boxes of Cuban cigars for more than you paid for them? I think linking to your name and address at your "Society" is going to make it pretty easy for Customs to come knocking on your door. Maybe you need to brush up on CS policies...

    How ironic, today I sent cigars to Cuba

    It's a shame that there are no Cuban cigars in Gitmo. It's a crazy world. My nephew is in Iraq. I can't send him pork or images of naked women! That's insane, an Iraqi may be insulted if he eats a BLT while reading Playboy? At least I can send him stogies.:confused: Thank the Mrs. for her service!

    Do you smoke in your car?

    The cigar smell covers up the beer smell in my truck.:ss

    Are You a Fan of Graycliff Cigars?

    I enjoy all the lines of Graycliff, but the Espresso and Double Espresso are my favorites. One of the best cigars I've ever smoked was an Espresso Shaggy. Absolutely fabulous with strong coffee and chocolate flavors. Oh how I wish I had a box of those!:dr

    spent cigars

    Tobacco may not be a good fertilizer but it is an excellent "green" pesticide. Some tobacco companies sell powdered tobacco to spread in the garden to eliminate bugs. A friend of mine with a big garden takes cigar butts and soaks them in a bucket until a nice brown soup is made. He then sprays...

    What's this?

    No, I haven't smoked one. I've bought a few boxes cheap from C-Bid but ended giving them away as gifts to people. The box is more impressive than the cigar from what I've heard. Top25Cigar ratings are worth a look. Many enjoyed them.

    What is the 1666 story?

    I love this cigar. I had gotten 2 fivers and then sprung for a bundle. I go to grab one today and I see the Honduras gov't label. I couldn't believe it. The Columbian tobacco flavor is what I love. It reminds me of some of the Rico's cigars (Gran Habano). I gotta find out who really makes these...

    Once I cut a cigar crooked and smoked it anyway then next thing I knew I woke with a girl who looked like Carlos Fuente, but with a bigger moustache.:ss

    Cigars for wedding

    DO NOT SPEND TOO MUCH! Any real cigar smoker is going to bring his own. From personal experience the guests will waste them or "take it home for later". 5 Vegas Gold or Leon Jimenes will be well recieved by "real" cigar smokers. I always bring a box of cigars to weddings and have learned that a...

    Funny Taste in my Cigars

    DonnieW, Thats a great post, thank you. Tobacco does leach metals from the soil. The soils in Cuba are rich in Lithium and absorb some. There's a theory around that proposes that is the reason Cuban cigars can be so soothing. I've had that metallic taste in cigars before. It's not good. I've...

    Montecristo Platinum Offer-Not!

    Dude, you got hosed! Consider it a $5.95 lesson and save those smokes for the in-laws. A little polite inquiry via e-mail may yield some results. A mention of your membership in THE on-line cigar community may not hurt. When I was little kid my grandmother wrote to Bazooka because I didn't get a...

    Don't you just hate it?

    That's just too funny. The first thing I did this morning was check a post I made last night to make sure it wasn't a drunken rant. Thank you for starting my day with a smile.:al
