Hey all... I have been absent for quite awhile and wanted to see what was going on. I have been extremely distracted lately and have not had time to check in with the gorillas. Well I am back and will now go away and read all the latest of what has been going on here in the Jungle. Doug

Well to all of you SOTL's and BOTL's out there that have to suffer through the winter months, I have hit a bad time of the year to smoke. It was 115 + here in Phoenix yesterday and about as hot today. The humidity was about 16% only which equates to poor cigar smoking. It seems that the stick...

My local shop here knows I like the Camacho Line and when I was there Friday they came through with a real winner. They just received the new sizes of the Camacho SLR Maduro line and I picked up a Torpedo ($6 or so). This smoke was beautiful with a near black wrapper and the cut was clean...

Well now that I have smoked 1/2 dozen of these cigars from my last box, I have to give these a 8.5 out of 10. Construction: The entire box is close to perfect with medium to Dark Brown Wrapers and very smooth. The Robusto is my favorite size for the fact that it has all the flavor of the...

I have lately had several gars that have been extremley difficult to smoke. The problem has been what seems to be a plug I guess but this seems to have happened to many times and I am wondering if it is a bigger problem. The sticks seem to develope a knot while smoking. The center gets really...

:sb Ok, I have to first say that I really like these sticks! That being said... I picked up a couple of Camacho SLR Corojos today. The first went up in smoke on the way home (Friday Rush Hour) and it was fantastic. The second was to be a late evening with coffee smoke. The second I lit...

Well group, this makes my 400th post and as fate would have it I just bought a 50qt cooler and am preparing for a couple of boxes. I have read the CoolerDoor and Humidification Beads threads which were very helpful. The question I have is how do you store your boxes? Do you open the lids or...

Hey all, I have a chance to meet Pepin Garcia and maybe pick up a stick or two of his. I understand that he will possibly roll a requested blend. I have not had either of the 3 blends and was wondering if you all may have some suggestions? TIA (The event): THURDAY, MARCH 17TH (12 TO 7PM) -...

OK, I am not sure if I should be excited or not. I picked up a box of Indian Tabac Classic Chiefs at about 1.25/stick. I have not had one of these yet but was thinking at this price I hope it is better than the FDO bundle I bought. OK Goirillas, let me know what I am in for if you care...

I need a little Band "Aid" here. Was wondering who smokes their sticks with the Band on and who smokes their sticks naked. I like to remove the band right away to save it.

I am considering a box purchase at a Camacho event this coming Friday. Should be a pretty good deal on the sticks since Christian Eiroa, Owner of Camacho Cigars will be there. The problem I have only smoked one of these and it was over Christmas and was mixed in with a bunch of smokes at the...

Well, for my first post here I chose an LGC "Glorias" 5.5x43. (M) This little beauty looked and smelled great. The construction was consistant with the entire box, some small veigns and dark oily wrapper. The draw at first light was a bit tight but it seemed right for this little power house...

I stopped in at my local shop today. You see, they had said last Friday they received a shipment of the one cigar I have heard the most about and had not tried. I had to pick up 2 of the Robustos. The question is??????? What is your favorite drink to go with this infamous stick?

As mentioned in another thread (http://www.clubstogie.com/vb/showthread.php?t=8573), I attended a Torano event last night. There was a great group of folks and a bunch of good cigars were smoked. I thought I would post a couple of picks taken. Had the chance to watch them being rolled...

Thanks for the bumps as well...I learn something new every day... :)

My brother got me started on stoggies this past New Years (as I have said in the past) and he is a very casual smoker. He only smokes a couple of sticks a week at most and he will often Clip a lit cigar and then put it back in his humidor and re light it later in the week. Is this a common...

Ok, I was wondering (as I just finished a Partagas Blk Lable) what everyone is going to smoke on the day of the big game. Let's here from everyone. I will be smoking a Pinar Double Corona :cool: DsrtDog...

I have recently added 2 Toro Pinar P3000 and 2 Double Corona Pinar P3000's to my Humidor. Has anyone else had the pleasure of smooking these fine Maduros? I am going to have a tuff time letting these awsome sticks sit. There was a Pinar event at the Ye Olde Pipe and Tobacco shop in Phoenix...
