I guessed what kind of cat Quint has at the same time as someone else, and he was generous enough to send me some smokes as well as the winner!! He didn't have to send me anything, since our guesses were at the same time but mine was listed last, a true BOTL. Thanks Quint!! Check it out...

I thought I was alone in creating my own tasting sheet, or dossier some call them, but it turns out quite a few gorillas do the same thing. I would like people to post theirs in this thread, I'm sure I can learn from other peoples sheets and I encourage everyone to use mine however they want.

Today I'm sick, a mixture of congestion with a sore throat. No big deal, it doesn't affect me other than the fact that I cant taste my cigars when I'm sick, which totally ruins my day and I have nothing to look forward to. I drink a lot of Scotch when I have a sore throat, and that really...

Alright, it's time to start prepping for the October cigar of the month. I put up some suggestions in the Sept. thread and the cigar for October is... CAO Black. I guess it doesn't matter what size, but I will be reviewing the Gothic (torpedo) size. Everyone go out and get one, but don't...

For some reason I have not been liking NC's lately. I'm no snob, but I no longer get satisfaction from them. Oddly enough the one cigar that I still love to smoke is the Indian Tabac Super Fuerte robusto or double corona. The smoke is cool the whole way through, some depth, great tobacco and...

Contrary to what some people think, us members here at CS do know a good review. A while back Richard (RPB67) posted a Montecristo contest sponsored by Cigar Magazine, where you would submit a review for one of the Montecristo lines and the winners would receive a box of the reviewed cigar. I...

First Petit Corona tonight. Davidoff Millenium blend. also my first Davidoff. I was amazed at the flavor that was able to build up during such a small smoke. The burn, draw, and appeanance were excellent. Bountiful smoke from the draw, and I was more amazed with every puff. I usually shy...

Just wondering if anyone has ever seen an opusX band that looks like this: Just got this one and don't know if its real.

I notice some of you guys talking about taxes affecting the price of online orders... Are you supposed to pay taxes on onine orders from other states? Like if I live in Michigan and order something from New York, am I somehow supposed to pay Michigan taxes?

I would like members to "nominate" the cigar they think is the best cigar for the money. I nominate........ The fuente sungrown line. I have never smoked an Anejo or Opus X, but I doubt they would make this list anyway (because of price). In my opinion, of the many NC's I've smoked (although...

I don't know if any of you have this problem but... I smoke a cigar every night before I go to bed. Sometimes I have an extra 30 mins. or so because it was a robusto, or burned quick. What is a good NC that is around a 30 min smoke? Looking in the medium price range (3-5 a stick). I have...

I'm going to buy a didital Hygrom. to monitor some "real" cigars I just got in. I use the beads, and I'v heard you don't even need a hygro with beads, but I dont agree with that. I also need it for the temp during the summer. I'd like some people to post what DIGITAL hygro's they have and...

OK, I know this has been covered before but I have a little question with using the 65% or 70% beads. I recently ordered a half pound of the 70% beads, then I see DaKlugs gettin' 10 pounds of 65% beads in the NST! Did I make a mistake going for 70%? I know 65% is great for smoking, but I am a...

I have been using matches to light my cigars for about 2 years now. It sometimes sucks to try to get an even light, and has ruined a few good cigars. I just made my first major purchase of some ISOM's, (a box of Montecristo #2), and I want everything to be "perfect" when I smoke them. I dont...

Just picked up a few of these from January, 2005. Factory is EAR. Anyone have any experience with these, how long should I let them rest?
