    Padilla - So what are they like now?

    Okay, so I've been reading a lot about how Pepin isn't rolling for Padilla anymore and then the whole Holt's unpleasantness. My question is, does anyone have any information on the fresh Padilla's? I just ordered some 68's and I'm curious if they are going to be the same old delicious 68's...

    Palio Cutter Problem

    I have loved my Palio from the first cut I made with it. Unfortunately, yesterday I noticed that the blade is starting to come away from the plastic part. It still cuts, but my worry is that as time goes on, the blade will continue to come away from the plastic causing an imperfect cut. Not...

    San Cristobal - HELP!?!?!

    Can anyone point me to a good deal on San Cristobals? I smoked one for the first time and fell in love. However, they are a bit pricey at my local B&M. I'd like to get a box. I found them at HOLTS but I wasn't sure if maybe there was a better deal out there somewhere that maybe someone could...

    Wedding Cigar

    I'm getting married on Saturday and then leaving for Africa the following day. Any suggestions on what to smoke on my wedding night and the following day? I'll be in Amsterdam with just enough time to purchase and smoke a nice CC, so the sky is the limit on what to try. I'm not familiar with...

    A one-two punch that left me realing....

    Last night after work I stopped at a local brewery near my home to have a smoke. They've just brewed a new porter that I'd been meaning to try. I had a 5 Vegas 'A' with me that I got in a PIF that I had been meaning to smoke, because I really enjoy those and hadn't had one in awhile. WOW...

    Coolidor/Beads question

    I've been using the search function and looking at a lot of different pictures here on CS to determine how I should keep my beads in my coolidor and how much beads I should use. I'm coming up short. Currently, I have about 3/4 of a pound of beads in a woman's nylon stocking at the bottom of my...

    Ruined Humi and Cigars!!! ARG!!!!

    For those of you with a weak stomach, please do not read any further. I get a call from the finacé while I'm at the gym yesterday. She says I need to come home because there is water in the basement and she doesn't know what happened or what to do. I said okay, I'll be home as soon as I can...

    Heater Suggestions

    Okay, as I alluded to in one of my previous threads, my current living conditions make it difficult to smoke alone. The reason for this being that I can't smoke at home because my finacé won't let me smoke in the house and it's entirely too cold outside to smoke. I've come to the conclusion...

    Smoke alone?

    I am a person who almost always smokes with someone else. While I love cigars, it's more about the experience for me than the cigar, and standing outside in the snow by myself isn't that great of a time for me. Get a buddy involved, and just having someone to talk to makes it much more worth...

    My new purchase...sliding fast now!!

    Well, when I started smoking cigars a short short time ago, I started out with a 50 count humidor. Little did I know that 50 count meant only around 25-30 cigar capacity. Therefore, in a short time, I ran out of room. I purchased this 200 count humi a week or so ago. I'm very pleased with...

    Camacho 1962

    Alright, who has smoked one of these? I've searched and searched and can't find a review. I was gifted a few of these (not sure if it should be called a 'gift' at this point) and I'm curious what to expect. Right now I have them chilling in my humi awaiting there demise. HELP!!!

    Rocky Patel Vintage Euro 92

    I've read what I could find on here about this cigar (which was very little, but much on the 90), and I was wondering what people thought about this cigar. I received ten torpedoes from a friend, and I haven't sparked one up just yet as I thought I'd let them sit a bit and get some info on them...
