    How ironic, today I sent cigars to Cuba

    One of the guys deployed with my wife in GTMO, asked me to send him some cigars. He wanted me to buy him some Quarums and send them to him. I know he likes Acid's so I sent him some Kuba Kuba and an assortment from my stash. I just find it funny that here this poor guy is in "the promised land"...

    The Nub

    I got to try a new Nub, by Oliva, this week. I got to meet Ian, BengalMan, and he hooked me up with a Conn. wrapped nub. The cigar was about 4 1/2 X 60. I chose to punch this little monster. Let me just say, normally I am not a conn. wrapped cigar fan because they are normally too mild. The...

    Caution: LFD can hurt you bad!

    A good smoking buddy of mine almost killed himself a few weeks ago while smoking a DL700 maduro. He smokes them all the time, but this time was different. He works for SBC as a lineman and was smoking while driving. He had not eaten all day and was on rt.75 heading to Dearborn. About an hour...

    Let down by a "great"cigar

    Yesterday, Don, aka technodaddy stopped by and offered me a blind taste test. I am always up for such a challenge. The cigar in question had a great construction and maybe a toro? He watched as I smoked it. It was ok but never really did much for me. It tasted pretty medium but had a nice nic...

    Don Lino 1989 Maduro Robusto

    Just arrived today is this beautifully dark and silky slightly box-pressed cigar. I allowed a proper rest time (till it was at room temp). I chose to punch this robusto. The pre-light draw was very nice and tasted :dr. I used a cheap torch to set fire to it and it lit just fine. The draw was...

    San Cristobol Supremo

    I just finished smoking this 6X50 beauty gifted to me from the RTDA show. Just a little note, specific flavor ID's don't come easy to me(ie hints of bark, old shoes,etc.) The construction was perfect and the band is big and beautiful. I allowed this cigar to rest for 3 whole days and could not...

    Primos Maduro with pics

    The stick in question is the Primos Maduro from Los Blancos Cigars. It is a 3 year aged Habano, Criollo, maduro stick that is very rich but not too much so. It is about $3.00 retail and comes in a bundle, but this ain't your daddy's bundle. I am not one who usually smokes many bundled cigars...

    Coronado by La Flor Dominicana

    Yesterday while visiting my local B&M, I was enjoying a Brazilia Gol. A sales rep showed up from LFD. I was sitting and minding my own business when he asked the store owner if he could give me a stick. He said sure and the rep asked if I would like a full bodied smoke. I have always been a fan...
