    Suggestions to age 9mos?

    I haven't been around much the last couple months, money's tight, I was laid off a few weeks, so I haven't really been buying or keeping up with cigars trying to save some cash. Now we're entering the slowest sales season of the year, so my commission checks will be even lower. As SOP, the...

    Sosa Natural piramides - shorty review

    Not much of a review here, but I wanted to share this stick with the club. I had this last night, after a week or two in the humi. Paid $6.50 locally, attracted by the band, which was beautiful. When i pulled it out of the wrapper the cigar itself was beautiful too, even color, a few veins...

    Cigars International Red Label

    Saw MCS's review, so I grabbed one of these tonite too, had them for a week or so. I love Perdomos, so i've been looking forward to this for quite some time. Construction and pre-light: Like most Perdomo's, this torpedo was a beaut. Somewhat blotchy, as usual for maduros, but the wrapper was...

    Shower Review - Pontalba Robusto

    I originally got this idea from another thread, and in the wake of our new anti-smoking laws (Illinois), I decided to give this a try, as an alternative. With restaurants banning smoking, this is my only refuge in winter now. I chose a small cigar from my stash, a Pontalba slightly shorter...

    Gurkha G^3

    I recently received this stick as part of the Book and Stogie pass, and being halfway through the book, decided to light it up. I have had these before, and always loved them, so I was looking forward to this stick. The cigar came wrapped in a cedar band w/black ribbon, just like the fuente...

    CAO America - Potomac

    I grabbed this for my walk last night, after letting it sit a few days at 65%, I was really looking forward to it. Appearance - Not bad, the wrapper looked a bit rough actually, the pin-striping was a bit uneven. I suspect because of the difficulty in doing the double wrapper. The cap was...

    Fuente Cubanito

    I bought a tin of these a few months back, and frankly hated them. So I started passing them out, but since I don't know 9 people I hate enough to give these, I was stuck with about 3. So they sat in the humi 6 months or so. Last night, for kicks, I decided to smoke one, and was very...

    Favorite short-filler fuente?

    So I now have a decent stable of big and medium ring gauge stogies aging in my Vicksburg, but i've recently (with the cold weather) found myself needing a shorter smoke. I'd also like something less expensive, because I don't always have the time to really enjoy them, and so I won't feel bad if...
