I am looking forward to celebrating July 4th with my friends and neighbors. We will do a little neighborhood crawl, go from house to house and get food and drink, finish off with watching Independence Day on Blu-ray on the big screen. Personally, I think I will smoke an aged RJ Churchill in...

Hi folks, in relation to my recent thread asking you for recommendations on good 4-5 dollar cigars here http://www.clubstogie.com/vb/showthread.php?t=140649 I thought I'd pay back and actually review the ones I bought and will smoke one after the other. Since I don't smoke a lot this will take...

Inspired by Scott (shilala) I took regular readings of my vino with kitty litter. To see the set-up and read more details refer to the "Extremely boring" thread, please. Below I will post the accumulated readings for all to peruse. Scott's interpretation is that the KL gives off humidity very...

For all you gadget freaks out there here is a review of my most used lighters. From left to right we have: -Monarch Pipe lighter -Lotus L1040 (?) Pipe lighter -Colibri Lift Top Single Torch -Windmill Single Torch -S.T. Dupont Ligne 2 Pink Gold normal flame I bought the...

This is my first cigar review here and I dedicate it to what has been basically my favorite smoke for the last ten years: The Davidoff Special T. T like Torpedo and T like Till. Actually, I kept a cigar diary for some time but have neglected this in the past years. Perhaps this will help...

I just sat down to configure my Pelican 1200 case yesterday. It is not quite complete. I want to order a cigar tray from one of our vendors to top it off. So just imagine that on top instead of the spiky foam. It took me some time to figure out how I wanted to set it up. It carries three pipes...

Since I am always looking for outstanding price/value relations what are your recommendations? (It is hard to use the stupid search engine for this kind of question, so I know this must have been answered a million times; links will do) I hear the Vegas Gold is a really nice mild smoke with...

I know worth and value are quite subjective, however, if you do have comparison with other top cigars at this price level, are the Padron 1926 worth it? I saw a Padron 1926 (size was at least Churchill perhaps Double Corona) for around $23 or 25 at a BM here in Austin (Havana House). That is...

I was looking for this really nice conversion chart someone posted (should have saved this thing) that indicated the corresponding values for 70%RH at 70F. I think the scale also showed the corresponding absolute humidity. So I have a couple of things that need clarification and I bet...

I am quite new to this great community (check out my newbie intro if you feel like it here http://www.clubstogie.com/vb/showthread.php?t=127675 ). And I have already learned a lot. Thanks everybody! In order to keep up with the BOTLs and SOTLs here and because Austin climate gets really hot in...

I think I found another great use for beads for those of us who also enjoy pipe smoking. I posted the thread in the General Pipe Forum but wanted to make sure that the cigar smokers saw it, too. Just a matter of pushing you down another slope.:ss Here is the link...

What are your experiences with Holt's cigars? Good service? Good conditions of cigars? I see they have interesting prices on Davidoff and I love Davidoff. Thanks for your input! Till

A lot of people in the pipe section have enjoyed reading an article on the unfortunate decline of smoking culture that I posted a link to. This link will take you to the thread: http://www.clubstogie.com/vb/showthread.php?t=131688 I just discovered a similar article on the philosophical side...

I know we shouldn't cross post, so here is just a link to a thread I made in the pipe forum. I would like to get the cigar smoker's input on whether they think pipe smoking might be more addictive than cigar smoking. http://www.clubstogie.com/vb/showthread.php?p=1428921#post1428921 Thanks for...

Prompted by our eternal quest for odor removal (do we stink, or what?) I thought I'd post this. Story first, as always. On a recent trip to Dallas/FW I stayed in microtel motel (a chain I quite like by the way). Well, usually in Motels one does not meet the most interesting people. However...

It is not the Connoisseur who is the ultimate tool but the instrument that allows him or her to enjoy all the culinary, liquid and smokable pleasures.:ss As far as I know this tool does not exist yet, but it could easily be made. I have quite a few ideas I am willing to share to see what you...

I have searched this forum and the net for it. Couldn't find any information. I know the Vector soft flame insert and the Z-Plus torch insert will just drop right into an ordinary Zippo. I also know they will not work with the slim line model. But what about the 1941 Replica model? I suppose it...
