Alright Gorillas, I feel bad that my contributions to the site have been lacking lately. I haven't had much time for the internet, so I have become one of those despised lurkers-- only coming on to check the forums -- not much in the way of participation. This is going to be a thank you to...

Hey guys, Just took a new job with a much bigger company a few weeks back. Moved from the nicest office in the company to a spacious little cubicle... How many of you have humidors at your offices? Should I decorate my cube with one of the nice little Savoys I got from Holts? Do you think...

...just for me to smoke a handful of cigars. New company's policy says," A smoker is a person who has smoked ANY cigarettes, a pipe, or cigars in the last 12 months. Social and occassional smokers are included...." Now I'm going to have to fork over $15 more per pay on my health insurance...

Afternoon all, Olivia Serie G Robusto 4.5X50 I had one of these smokes last evening on my ride home from work. I bought this smoke after hearing such good things about it on here. I have to agree. This was definitely a good smoke. I didn't have my cutter with me, so I punched the head...

Some stocking stuffer porn from my wife :w I figured this would be a good way to sample a few different sticks I've never had before. As for the Saint Luis Reys, I just liked the packaging. Enjoy! Never tried these before, but got a heck of a deal on them....and after all the good...

I just ordered my first Cab, 2006 Boli PCs after hearing rave reviews of this year's crop. Anyone else treat themselves yet?

I was browsing through a few auctions on the devil's site this evening. I've never ordered from C-Bid before, but I've visited several times. Well, the temptaion became too much for me this evening, and with all the talk about the Rocky Patels on this site, I figured I might as well pick up a...

Well guys, Celebreated 25 glorious years of life on Sunday and the wife had plenty of surprises in store. FIrst of all, she gave me an early birthday present last week when she announced that she's pregnant with our first child. What a way to start the month :) For all of you that helped me...

Guys, I apologize for the lack of reviews recently. However, I have misplaced my camera and don't feel that a review without pictures is nearly as cool... I had the afternoon off yesterday and decided to go have a quick dinner with the wife at work. Of course I don't mind those trips because...

Morning all, I didn't have time to do my review after the smoke last evening, so I've saved it for this morning. I had a Joyo de Nicaragua last night, and was very excited about it, as I love full bodied maduro smokes. I probably could have let it sit for another week or two, but I got antsy...

Good afternoon all, I had an amazing smoke last evening. As usual, it was accompanied by my evening Vodka tonic. I chose the CAO Gold Robusto out of my humidor, and summoned my wife to the deck. She enjoyed a couple of glasses of C. Shaw Cabernet... Now for the cigar. Great looking smoke...

Another very good smoke from the same bomb. Once again had the vodka tonic complimenting this beautiful cigar. Never had one of these either and was really looking forward to it. Very nice appearance and the draw was phenominal. I like a loose draw. Nothing more frustrating to me than...

Afternoon all, Been a slow day at the office, but a busy few days at home. Trying to get a fly fishing trip with JPH and a few others together for lake run Brown Trout in New York tomorrow-Sunday. Probably won't be any herfing going on over the weekend, huh? Anyway, back to the smoke. I...

smoke a swisher sweet, backwoods, or a phillie blunt?????

Been saving this guy in my humi for about 6 months. Don't really know why I pickd this smoke up a while back. I'm not much for odd shapes, but I think it was suggested by a friend. Been sitting and 70 degrees and 68 humidity for 6 months. Cut it with my Xicar and the cut was miserable. The...

Hello all, Quick review here. First of all, I was gifted the first from JPH a couple weeks ago. He told me to let it rest for a couple weeks. Well, I couldn't take it anymore last evening: Beautiful cigar. Gorgeous color and very well constructed. The complimenting drink was a vodka...

Hello all, Any of you guys have any Cohiba bands you don't want/need? I'm going to be building myself a new fly rod within the next few months, and I'd kinda like this one to have a Cohiba theme. I'd like to inlay some bands in the grip of the rod, and possibly epoxy them onto the rod itself...

Hello, I've been reading through a bunch of reviews and they're all great. However, I have one suggestion for the "reveiw" category. Can we get a template or guideline to use for each and every review? Such as: Brand: Size (length/RG): Age: Box Code (if applicable): Cut: Appearance: Draw...

Guys, Had one of these in the car yesterday. Went in to see the wife at work and there happens to be a cigar shop nearby. Needless to say, I always make a quick stop... I'll admit it-- I'm a whore for cigars in tubes. Something about them, just can't put my finger on it. I think that's one...

just a quick opinions from everyone would be great. What is your favorite drink paired with mild/medium/full bodied cigars? What brings out the best in a great cigar in your opinion? John I had a Paulaner Hefeweizen with an Upmann corona the other day. I thought they went very well together.
