Has anybody tried and sourced Philipine cigars? Please share your findings if you have. _____ RM

These are the most over rated cigars i have ever smoked. I just don't get it. In fact, i have yet to smoke one i found truely enjoyable. They are passable, barely. I find them bland to boarder line harsh. I've probably smoked around 30 - 40 of these, of various sizes, both Maduro and...

I thought it was getting a bit crowed in here: _____ rm

Well, yes, they WERE humidors at one time. Cluster Server _____ rm

Well kind of ... 25 cigars: 5 Cusano 10 Ltd. Edition 10th Anniversary 5 Bucanero Salsa 5 Series X Celebrity 5 Torano Exodus 1959 Torpedo 5 Vega Talanga Corojo Oscuro All for the low, low price of $82 -- where you may ask? Satan's Storehouse, in the land of many clicks, and lost bids. I am...

Below is an excerpt from a review here at CS. When I read this a while back I was not sure what to make of it. After a while it was still bothering me, so I PM’d a fellow magilla, whose knowledge I respect, and asked for their take on the matter. Well, they had about the same reaction I did...

I keep a list of prices for the cigars i regularly buy for easy reference when comparing vendors. I've been doing this for only the last year or so. I have noticed lately that i am seeing a 10 - 20% increase in some prices. I also received a message from a preferred vendor that their next...

Well i have said this a few times to folks asking for advice: "think of the biggest humidor you will possibly need and, at minimum, triple it." And just to illustrate my point i refer you to an elder's experience, Bruce5: Back in 2003 it seems Bruce had been incrementally increasing the size...

Series X: I picked up a sampler of these from Uncle Mikey a while back. Had them sitting in the conditioning box. It was Tuesday evening, and on schedule, once a month, the wife left me and the dog at home while she went to a board meeting. I usually take this opportunity to make it up to...

NOW WTF!!! I recently placed an order with JR;s. It seems they have changed their shipping policy to some states, they will no longer ship UPS. As JR does not have a handy information email I just let it slide and did not bother to call and find out why. Perhaps if someone know exactly why...

I admit it, I am a dedicated value smoker. Yeah that’s me you see rooting around on the bottom shelf of the tobacconist; pulling half a dozen cigars off the shelf, and leaving the shop lighter by only a saw buck and some change. Don’t get me wrong, I love some of those premium sticks, even...

Cuba - home of the cigar - bans smoking in public By David Usborne in New York 21 January 2005 The news from the Caribbean was distressing yesterday for die-hard smokers trying to hold back the tide of anti-tobacco laws. Cuba, which for decades has been associated with the rolling and...

Yep, they are after us on all fronts, and in all corners. Philadelphia -- the city of "brotherly love" and the home of the Liberty Bell Mayor John F. Street said, "[he has had] dinners ruined by cigar smoking patrons" "It's the wave of the future," Street said. Refering to the "banning of...

Well, it is probably only a matter of time. I have read the new Oregon statute (HB2368) designed to tax internet sales -- so far it is pretty much aimed at cigarettes. But if they are successful at getting compliance there they will probably move to cigars. Here is an article you may find...

These fine cigars have been reviewed before, here: http://www.clubstogie.com/vb/showpost.php?p=56986&postcount=1 and here: http://www.clubstogie.com/vb/showpost.php?p=39741&postcount=1 I generally agree with these reviews, this is an excellent cigar. Here is my take...

I reviewed the La Finca Black Robusto just a while back and gave it a favorable review. Also, I have supported the positive reviews of this cigar as they come up on the board. However ….. Well, I must have gotten a rotten box! The construction is terrible on 80% of these. They feel fine...

With the dizzying array of wrappers I only listed what i thought to be the most common. I happen to be particularily fond of the Maduro with it's creamy sweet and strong tobacco undertone flavor. However i also have found the Corojo (strong and spicey) and the Rosado (smoothly strong) to be...

Hey, i just got this email from http://www.smokeall.com/ I'm sure many of you did as well, but for those of you who may not have and are interested .... " [We] have several inquiries as of late about the Fuente Holiday items. It is very difficult for us to fairly distribute these products. We...

Just logged into http://www.smokeall.com/ and found the JdNA's on special. Just in case anybody was interested. :o) rm

I'm pretty sure i am not alone in having purchased a few, and in my case quite a few, boxes of cigars that are just plain terrible. Whatever the crazy reason was that prompted the purchase the burning fact is, there they sit -- taking up space. So, just what do you do with these? Just curious...
