It's from Townhall.com and is thus tainted a bit with conservative politics, but I think it still amusing regardless of one's political persuasion. "10 great cigars and why I smoked them" by Mike S. Adams June 13, 2005 For years, communism has been preventing me from enjoying a lot of...

Brand: Crown David Product line: Exquisito Shape: "Torpesito" ( Some call it a Torpedo) Country of Origin: Dominican Republic price: ~$5 It figures that if you start joking around with a few CSers about your frenetic gay stripper predilections , it catches on, and the next thing you know...

I'm wondering what people think is the best portable cigar case/humidor that can hold , say, a dozen cigars? I'd like to keep things relatively cheap, but not so cheap as to be unreliable. thanks

Padron 2000 -- Mocobird Edition It was a little past 7 p.m.. A Gran Marnier infused Padron Margarita sat before me and a lovely blonde sat to my right, sipping a Vox martini with a twist. She was busy trying to explain why she had applied a Repeated Measures Multi-Variate Analysis of...

The Rocky Patel Sungrown line features a wrapper of Ecuadorian Sumatra purportedly surrounding the same binder/filler combination of Nicauraguan and Dominican tobaccos found in the now highly regarded "Vintage" line of cigars. If you read a few of Rocky's comments on his own online forum...

As many of you already know, the 40th Anniversary Padron is a Torpedo banded as a serie 1926 with a secondary band denoting the 40th anniversary of the company's inception. They are sold out of a commemorative handpainted humidor at the tune of around $25 (that's the MSRP). Like the rest of the...

Has anyone found the time to smoke one of these ridiculously huge torpedos and can offer a review?

Thought I'd post Cigar Aficionado's top 25 cigars of 2004 for the sake of discussion. Personally, some of these choices (not to mention some conspicuous absences) have me scratching my head, but then, I suspect others will be scratching too. 1. Padron 1926 40th Anniversary 2. La Aurora 100...

Alright Chimps, Apes, Gorillas and other anthropological sex objects, this is it! With so many of you out there clamouring for your Montecristo Platinum Calendars, I thought it only proper to offer up my own personal copy to the highest bidder. Sure, others are giving em away without a fuss...

Whether you're looking to stick it to Fidel or are simply leary of ordering Cubans from one of the myriad mailorder houses around the world for fear of making "the list", chances are you're hoping and praying that a Dominican or Nicauraguan cigar will come along that makes you forget about that...

as some of you know, I received a Manassas humidor from Bargain humidors as a present for my 35th birthday. I've been running my cigar oasis plus unit ffor a few days now, sans cigars, just to get an idea of how things work before I get my replacement humidor (the dooron my current one is...

What's the story on the Pinar line of smokes using purportedly pre-embargo Cuban tobacco? Anyone have anything good to say about these smokes? Bad? thanks

I was reading the owners manual for my new Caliber III hygrometer that came with my new humidor and I came upon this little nugget: "WARNING: This is an electronic instrument. To maintain the warranty of this product and enjoy many years of error free operation, do not attemptt to perform the...

I just received a Manassas humidor from Bargain Humidors as an early birhday present. I was going to get started with the seasoning process but noticed that I'm missing the red caps that are used to cover the holes of the reservoir. Are these caps absolutely necessary or could I just use some...

La Gloria Cubana has always intrigued me, often enraptured me, and often left me wondering what went wrong. I've smoked Serie R #4s and #5s that have been simply fantastic and complex, with the sweet black tea undertones that attend the best Cubans I've had. Others have simply been strong...

At this point, I can only bring myself to stare at my specimen through the glass top Humi. Anyone here fired up one of these beauties?
