    Tatuaje Noella (march 2006 box)

    I bought 10 of these from a member here and have been smoking them occasionally to see how good they can get. I have one more left after this one and I will be sad to see it go. This cigar is strong and very smooth and has aged well. Age some of these if you can. ONE WORD REVIEW: TASTY scottie

    The Best part of Smoking Cigars

    Is the people you meet and the times talking while enjoying a fine cigar. I have been lucky enough to meet a few BoTLs from CS during my travels (I travel for a living if you did not know) and it always amazes me at the genuine friendships that are sparked by folks with similar interests such...

    Mini Reviews on Avalon Blind Mississippi - JFR Maduro - Oliva Serie V

    Been a while since I did any reviews so don't expect too much. First off is a pre-production Avalon Blind Mississippi compliments of Pathman Construction was good if not a little underfilled and pre-light draw and flavor were both spot on for this churchill. This is a great full-bodied cigar...

    I just had a Padron 4000 Natural that had been in my humi for the better part of a year and the review is very easy..... Just plain old smooth and tasty with a perfect burn and draw or just FLAWLESS. It made me want to buy a box and put them up for a year or 2. scottie

    Getting Involved at CS

    Earlier today I posted about 4 wonderful cigars I had while driving to and from Raleigh, NC yesterday and it got me thinking. Being INVOLVED at CS has allowed me to enjoy this hobby/obsession (hobsession) even more than I could have ever done on my own with yesterday being a great example. Out...

    I found some Camacho Face-Off cigars by Litto Gomez

    I found some of these cigars (one full box and 11 singles) and tried one but they were just medium-bodied so I am not very interested in buying them. They were very good and complex, just not my personal cup of tea. These came out in November of 2003 so they have some age on them and if you...

    TampaSweetheart #380 Maduro

    These are maduro panatelas (I think) at 5x38 and in the regular Fuente line, they are called Petite Coronas. I got my first bundle in today after seeing all of the wonderful reviews and I could not be happier. Short Review but here it goes: Appearance/Construction: a little rough and veiny...

    LGC Serie R Limitada 2005 Natural

    I searched for a review on this cigar and could not find one here which has prompted me to ask my question. Has anyone had these? If so, how were they? I know they are supposed to be aged before you get them so I was wondering if they had that good aged taste or if they still tasted young...

    Tatuaje Havana VI Hermosos (corona gorda)

    Okay, I did a review on the Tat Series P Corona Gorda a few days ago so this is the follow up to that. I purchased a few of each of the Havana VI Hermosos and P1s a few weeks ago and have been letting them chill out in the humi. I waited until after I smoked the P1 so I did not get...

    LGC Serie R #5 Maduro

    Every once in a while I decide to take something with me out of town that I have not had in a while and this week the LGC made the cut. I lit it up tonight not giving much thought to the fact that this cigar had been in my humi for about 6 months. As Steve (palm55) says there is no substitute...
