    Hello Again

    Hello everyone. Its been quite sometime since I've posted on here. Frankly speaking, I just got burnt out on a lot of the same old posts and I also felt like I didn't have much new to add. I've still been browsing the boards, but not posting. Since I've been away from posting, it looks like...

    Butane?

    What type of butane do you guys use to fill your torches and where do you get it? My Colibri just ran out of gas, (ON VACATION I MAY ADD), and I could go to my local tobacconist, but they will rape me on the cost. -Justin

    La Aroma de Cuba

    Has anyone tried this line? My tobacconist can't get any right now. JR's said they can get them soon, but don't have any in stock and will not be selling singles. I am at a loss. I'd like a description if someone could post a small brief review. A friend of mine across the pond tried one and...

    Finck Cigar Company

    Anyone ever heard of the Finck Cigar Company? Any comments? I was told about them from a friend who swears by them, although, judging by his taste, that could mean that they are El Dogo Turdos. Any comments would be greatly appreciated. -Justin

    Who here subscribes to CA?

    This may be a controversial question, but who here subscribes to Cigar Aficianado magazine, even though we all agree that their ratings are an abortion at best, their articles seem to be quite compelling. I don't currently subscribe, just a curiousity question. -Justin

    Partagas Series D Question

    Ok all you Partagas freaks out there, I need some answers.. I enjoyed a No. 4 this evening on my back porch. It had a wonderful aroma and burned pretty even. The only thing that has me curious is the consistency of the cigar. Mine seemed to burn and draw very very hot from the get go. In fact...

I have a Cigar Oasis humidifier and it will not come on, for some reason I guess it sees the RH as acceptable.. My hygrometer is reading 66% as usual, but the cigars are splitting at...

    Fuente Gran Reserva Double Corona

    I had this cigar gifted to me by a friend.. Like most Fuente cigars, the construction and the wrapper was perfect. It was eye candy wrapped in a cedar wrapper with a nice red ribbon tied around the cigar. Man, it was beautiful. The construction was definately a 9.0, the burn was a 10. The cigar...

    Rollers Choice (Fonseca)

    I was gifted one of these about 3 months ago from BJ and I had never heard of a Rollers Choice. But I was taken back by how consistent and spicy it was. I thought, oh no, this is a cigar without a band, I don't know how good its going to be. It turned out to be a great little cigar. Well, when...

Being true cigar lovers, we wanted to find a good cigar shop before we even began looking around at the city and...

    Hoyo de Monterrey Excalibur Sultan

    I had my first one of these about two months ago at a race with a buddy of mine. We stopped by the tobacconist on the way out of town and grabbed a few cigars. The 1st one was very nutty and mild, but the super high wind of the cars whizzing by and the crosswinds from the weather grabbed an edge...

    La Unica #500

    Once again, Fuente has pulled off the impossible. The La Unica line of Fuentes are just unreal for the money. It is one of the best bundled cigars I have ever had. I am not going to do a review step by step, but will say that the body of the smoke was mild from start to about 3/4 of the way down...
