Please bear with me as this is all from memory(and 3 tall Jack & Cokes:al) Far as I know, this smoke has a Nic. wrapper and Nic. filler, don't know about the binder. Pre-light scent light barnyard Pre-light draw reveals hints of spice(black pepper to me) and espresso Through the 1st third...

Just a few words on my first Twist. Actually, this is the first barber pole style cigar I have had. Started with very little spice(black pepper) but quickly smoothed out into a creamy delight!! Great, mild tabacco flavors. Humi time was only about 1 1/2-2wks. Burn was great, no touch ups, first...

I have a Tiger duel flame torch that I have been using for at least 3 yrs. now and I think that the ignition is finally going out in it. I got it for cheap,like $6 from some site that I can no longer recall. Anyway, I really like it and was wondering if someone here knew where I could get my...

Has anyone had this 6.25x60 monster? Can't find them in my hood. I'm a fan of the 2,3, and 5000. With all the gorillas(including myself)that love Padrons here I thought I would have seen a review by now.

Just picked up 2 5ct. boxes of the CAO Brazilia Chango Tubos for 10.00 a box at my local!!! Checked CI and they go for about 29.00 there. :blWHOO HOO!!!:bl Go me!!!:ss And to think, I almost talked myself out of going there today, got the last 2 boxes!! Mods please move if this is not in the...

Bastid!! I smoked the Padilla Obsidian you sent me in that bomb. I was all prepared to NOT like this smoke. I had some from the first release and didn't like those at all. I fired this stick up and it was like espresso,chocolate flavored cake:tu. So,now thanks to you, I have another great smoke...

Just finishing off one of these beautiful smokes. Creamy and nutty to the core, slow burning, med/full in strength and (for me) full in flavor, never gets to be overwhelming, med. to short finish. A little bit o'spice when exhaled through the nose. I think I'm a fan of the reddish-hued Viso...

Any one know of any good ones there? Gonna be in the area in the next couple of weeks for work. Thanks!

Was in the b&m today and found a new bundle cigar they started carrying. El Mejor Reserva. Got a yellow and brown band with reserva on it in stencile type lettering and it is madruo, no box press. For $1.49 for a roubsto i had to grab one. Anyone know anything bout these? I plan on smoking it...

Hoyo De Monterrey Dark Sumatra Expresso!! I have overlooked these cigars in my newbie ignorance(just started bout 3 yrs. ago), but after doing a little research and reading lots of reviews I deicided that these might fit my flavor profile, classic maddie flavors like expresso, dark choc. and...

I picked up a toro a few weeks ago. I was wondering if anyone has tried these yet? Just trying to get some opinions. Thanks.

Did anyone pull the trigger on the crazy Gurkha deal on C.I.?? http://www.cigarsinternational.com/html/spec_event.asp I was helpless to refuse... Just wondered how many other gorillas got their paws on it.

Just thought I would share some pics of an cigar box I found in a antiuqe store a couple of weeks ago. If you look close you can see the remains of the original seal. Does anyone know any history of the brand?

I was digging through the humi the other day and ran across some smokes that I forgot I had...3 Padilla Obseidians toros from Jan. 07. I remember that from the first 2 that I smoked they did not fit my flavor profile, so I was wondering if I could get some suggestions on what these would be...

You've had your eye on a new (insert brand here)cigar that is coming out soon. You find them. What factors influence which vitola you will try for that first impression of the smoke? Just thought this would be a fun thing to post since I just went through this Sunday when I found the CAO...

I got a five pack of these back in early May from the Devil. Let them rest for about 2 weeks and the first 2 I tried tasted like strong nicotine, yuck. So I forgot about them until tonight and I'm glad I did, I almost wrote these off as a lost, mann was I wrong.... I think the measurments are 5...

I posted a thread once about Gurkha Legends that I had aged for about a year being very bland and someone suggested that they may be in their sick period. Do n.c.'s really have a sick period? Does it depend on what type of tobbacco is used? Wrapper? etc..? If so do certain tobbaccos have longer...

I have some of these left over from June '06, fired on up the othe day and it was almost tastless. I know that they supposedly have been aged up to 8 years. I'm gonna try another one this weeked and see if it was just a fluke. I was just wondering if anyone else has experinced this? Or does it...

I sometimes have 2 cigars a night with a 10 to 15min break between smokes. But depending on what I'm smoking, I sometimes don't get the flavor of the second smoke very well until about half way through it. So, I was just wondering how long I should wait, and what do you guys use to cleanse the...
