In the past several months CS has grown by leaps and bounds. Some of the new members bring years of experience and some are just starting their cigar hobby. This is for the brand spankin' new guys. I'm a firm believer in bundles for stretching your cigar dollar. And for the new folks; it gives...

When txmatt talks about a product I tend to listen. The man has an uncanny ability to find a good product at a reasonable price. So it was on his recommendation that I bought the PB-207. I've had lighters by Solo, Nibo, Colibri, and countless others and none have performed the way that I wanted...

These have been discussed before, but I feel it bears repeating in light of all the threads I've been seeing concerning torch lighters. I've owned Colibri, Nibo, Solo, Z-plus inserts, and countless no name lighters and this is the only one that has worked flawlessly from day one and is still...

A lot of us here seem to be parting with our money over at cbid, some for the very first time. I was wondering what everyones ideas were when it comes to bidding against others from CS. The reason I ask this is because I found myself in a situaton last week where I ended up bidding on a lot...

I found this while digging throught my cooler tonight and decided to give it a try. I think I got this as part of a sampler a few months back. This isn't a bad looking stick at all. It was 6x60 pyramid with a nice medium brown wrapper. Construction wasn't bad either. Now this is where anything...

Was just wondering if anyone had tried these or had an opinion on these petite coronas from Famous. Thanks

We've all seen the pics of a loaded cigar, the foot exploding in all directions. Today a friend gave me a Black Pearl Rojo Robusto to smoke at lunch. It looked great, construction was good, lit easily, and smoked just fine. But as the ash kept getting longer, it started dividing into four...

Yesterday was the monthly pay the bills/go over the budget day in our household. A day my girlfriend and I look forward to and cherish each month. I like to think of it as our way of spending quality time together. And as always, I complain how upset and nervous I get with this monthly ritual...

I was introduced to this bundle by Toraño last fall by Uncle Mickey. In fact, I thought I had smoked them all, but I found one last night at the bottom of the humi. It was a torpedo(6.5x52) with a maduro wrapper. A bit of a veiny wrapper, but very small veins. Nice dark maduro. The pre light...

In the last couple of weeks I've gotten on this perfecto kick. I've only tried the AF Hemingways. Seems like I don't hear alot about this shape. Does anyone else smoke these and if so do you have any recommendations? I would really like to find some that are full bodied with a maduro wrapper...

Last night I decided to smoke a Padron 2000 maduro out of a box that had been in the humi about 6 months. I used my Xikar which I know is sharp. Never had a problem with a cigar before; one snip and that's it. This thing took two hands squeezing as hard as I could. I thought for a minute I might...

I've been eyeing these for some time now, but can't seem to make a decision. I did a search, but it didn't turn up much. Review database seems to give them a favorable rating. Is this an overlooked gem or am I just looking at another so-so smoke? Any help from anybody with firsthand experience...
