    2007 Davidoff Limited Edition Puro Dominicano /pic

    To be honest, I have been wanting to smoke this cigar for a month or so, ever since a couple of them found their way into my Daiv-dor! I figured that I would give them some time to acclimate to 60/70 conditions prior to smoking. And what a long wait it was... For starters, this cigar is of a...

    Holts FINE CATCH - Cheap Smokes!

    "Man, that cigar smells like a FART!!!" This was the first thing I heard after torching a Holts Fine Catch. It didnt help that we were in the middle of a lake on a boat, where the smoke would have dissipated somewhat prior to reaching the other passengers. And for once, I was NOT farting...

    Holts SMOKIN' SANDWICH! - Cheap Smokes

    For those of us who get a Holts catalog - which is probably 90% of the BOTLs here - one may have noticed an ultra-cheap bundle called Smokin' Sandwich. Prices start at 15.95 for a bundle of 25, making them a very cheap 64 cents per smoke. However, like most, I usually passed them up. I am...

    Reasons why it makes sense to "stock up"

    When I first joined CS almost 10 months ago, I had been smoking cigars for over 10 years. I had one 75-100ct humidor, and thought that having it "half full" was enough for me. I wondered if some of the apes keeping large locker-style humidors or multiple coolers worth of cigars were insane...

    CAO Flavours Gold Honey - Corona

    I received this stogie as a sampler/freebie with an order a while ago, and I had left it resting for several months. I was looking for a yard 'gar today and happened to pull this one. Bear in mind, flavored cigars arent really my cup of tea, but I figured I would be as objective as possible...

    Paul Garmirian "pgcigars.com" P.G. No.1 /pic

    Paul Garmirian cigars are unique, to say the least. They are hard to find due to limited distribution and somewhat expensive when they are eventually located. They are rolled in the Davidoff factory in the Dominican Republic, but do not share the same tobaccos with the Davidoff line. The...

    Arturo Fuente Flor Fina Claro / Candela 8-5-8 - pics

    The candidate for this review is the unique Arturo Fuente Flor Fina 8-5-8 Candela. While the maduro and sungrown 8-5-8's are stealing the stage right now, the Candela waits patiently for a buyer in the hands of a few select merchants. I have liked the 8-5-8's in the past, and wonder whether...

    $300.00 range desktop humi?

    A friend of mine was looking for suggestions on a 300.00 range desktop humi, intended for use as a gift. Any recommendations in this price range? My first thoughts were Savoy, Daniel Marshall, and Diamond Crown. I dont have any of these, so I am not sure of quality or ability to hold...

    Anyone smoke a Dunhill Signed Range?

    This release caught my eye at a local B&M recently, but information about these cigars is pretty limited. There arent any reviews that I can find around these parts. Any of the BOTL's / SOTL's have an opinion on these? --- advertisments --- Dunhill`s new Signed Range of hand made cigars are a...

    Reas Havana Candela-Claro /pics

    One of our fellow BOTL's, dvickery, was able to help me identify the "long-lost" cigar based on this thread (thanks again Derrek): http://www.clubstogie.com/vb/showthread.php?t=32335 I decided I would try to get my hands on some of these again, if anything I can relive "14 year ago" island stick...

    OpusX Perfexcion #5 /pics

    I had an opportunity to smoke one of these on Saturday night. The Fuente Fuente OpusX Perfexcion #5 is the smallest of the OpusX series (excluding the thinner but hard-to-find Lancero). At 4.88"x40RG, this stogie falls into the Petite Corona vitola category, and makes an excellent introduction...

    Davidoff Ambassadrice /pics

    All right, I know I haven't posted a review in a while, so I will post at least 3 reviews (maybe more) this week of new and unique stogies that are not seen much on CS. I have some time off, and I can't wait to smoke at least once per day, if not more! The second candidate for review is the...

    Altadis donating cigars to the troops

    Its nice to see a large company like Altadis supporting the troops with some stogies - although I think they copied the idea from CS! :r ALTADIS U.S.A. TO DONATE CIGARS TO TROOPS IN IRAQ AND AFGHANISTAN Altadis U.S.A. has announced that it is donating nearly 20,000 premium cigars to the U.S...

    Fuente Humipak removal for storage

    So do you apes that age Fuente premium cigars (e.g. Don Carlos, Hemingway, OX, etc) keep the Fuente Humipak in the cigar box during coolerdor aging/storage, or do you remove the humipak and rely on the beads/humidification in the coolerdor? I want to insure that my AF's arent over humidified...

    "White Mold" that looks like plume

    In a different thread, Moki had mentioned that there are pure-white strains of mold that look a lot like plume. I checked into this, and this is indeed correct - and the naked eye cant really tell the difference, other than by checking the distribution of the material - plume should be somewhat...
