    The Cigar Factory Outlet (CFO) Kermit Candela Toro

    The Cigar Factory Outlet (CFO) Kermit Candela Toro I've never had a Candela before. I was ordering a sampler pack of the Nub Alts at wwwthecigarfo.com and I saw they had 5 packs of Candela Toros. They're cheap, only $1.50 a stick, so I ordered a pack. Fast forward to about a month later, I...

    Does anyone not like Padron?

    Out of all the cigar companies out there I think that Padron is the only one that everyone likes. Even talking cigars at the cigar shop, I can't recall one person every speaking out against Padron's. So seriously, does anyone not like Padron?

    Rocky Patel R4 (summary: it's a Dog Rocket)

    I picked up a bundle of Rocky Patel R4 maduro torpedoes awhile back as an impulse buy off of JoeCigar. Unfortunately I did not read the many bad reviews before making the purchase. I knew I was in trouble as I clipped the cap. It was so jam packed my cutter had trouble making it through the...

    Cigar smoke art.

    Here is a link to some picture of smoke art. Near the bottom there are a couple of cool cigar smoke pics. I find it funny that all the cigarette pictures are negative and the cigar pictures are really cool. http://www.darkroastedblend.com/2008/08/sublime-sensual-smoke-art.html

    I want canned cigars. How do we make this happen?

    I love the idea of vacuum packed cans of cigars rather then boxes. It makes so much sense from a storage point of view. And I know there are others here that will feel the same way as me. What I'm wondering is how could we do to get canned cigars back on the market? Should we start emailing...

    I think I'm maturing as a cigar smoker...

    My tastes have been undergoing a major change. When I started out with cigars after quitting smoking cigarettes I was all about the toro sized maduro box pressed. I've noticed that lately my truly epic smokes have been standard corona sized connecticut's. I find it's better to completely...

    La Invicta - a cheap cigar that is not worth your time or money.

    I picked up a fiver off the devil's site somewhere in the neighborhood of 6 months ago. I think I paid $3, but don't hold me to that. The cigar is hand rolled from Honduras leaf and features a simple green label. Construction was adequate, not great but not bad either. After moistening the...

    Are cigar butts litter?

    They are just rolled up leaves after all. Do you just throw the butts on the ground when not near an ashtray? Just wondering.

    Let's say I smoke a recently purchased cigar and it's just nasty with ammonia. I'm curious whose responsible for the now wasted cigar.

    Whats the most you've smoked in a day?

    Friday night I smoked 4 cigars. Ugh, that was a bit too much more me. I think I'll keep it under 3 from now on.

    Conversation with David Blanco regarding cigar construction..

    I just got home from a cigar tasting at West Coast Cigars in San Jose featuring David Blanco and his line of cigars sold under the name Los Blanco Cigars. The Blanco family owns the factories where many premium cigars are currently made, such as the Gurkha Ancient Warrior and RP Edge. One...

    Do not open until Jan 1st, 2010...

    I just finished putting together my first time capsule. Eventually I'd like to work up to the point where I have a stash of cigars aged 5 to 10 years for me to enjoy whenever I want. I'm still a long way from that dream. I like Gurkha's, can you tell? Most of these are from cbid 5 packs...

    What cigars are available only in the US?...

    There is lots of talk about the cigars not available in the US, but I'm wondering what we have that is either very rare or just not available in other countries? I'm going to France soon and I'm wondering what cigars I should bring that might make for some good trades or gifts. Thanks.

    Proof that people have different senses of smell...

    The article is about a study that shows your genes affect your sense of smell (and as a by product different senses of taste). This explains why a cigar taste can be different for different people. So always remember to take cigar reviews with a grain of salt. Smoke what tastes good to you...

    Looking for a GREEN torch lighter...

    I'm looking for a "carry around" lighter. My favorite color is green and I'd love to have a green lighter. The only one I've found so far is the Blazer CG-001 which is a little bigger then I'd prefer. Does anyone know of any other green lighters?

    How much do Gurkhas usually sell for on the Devil's site?

    I could have sworn they usually go for more then $3 a stick. I was on Cbid picking up more of the branded 20ct humidors (I got 5 more) and I thought I'd pick up some classier sticks for my cooler. I went down the list and auto bid $3 a stick on a bunch of Gurkhas assuming that out of all the...

    What should I buy at the local B&M?...

    When I go to a bar I always find it painful to pay $5 for a beer when I know I have the exact same beer sitting at home that I paid $1 for. On the flip side if it's a beer that I can't get anywhere else but at a bar I don't really mind paying the $5 and I'll slam pints all night long. For...

    How to tell when a cigar needs aging?

    If I smoke a cigar that I don't like, how can I identify if that cigar would be helped by aging or if it's just a dog rocket that should be trashed?
