    Casa Torano Maduro Toro Fiver

    I posted I'd give these away free to the first PM in the Poll thread, but noone has replied in an hour and 20 minutes due to its apparent death. Anyone want to try these out? I still have this fiver for someone, anyone with an address! Narbs

    Thompson Cigar wtf?

    I ordered the Sopranos Gift Set + free CAO Cubist ashtray the other day and have now received 4 phone calls from "quality control". Anyone else have these calls coming to them? I talked to them yesterday and the guy tried to have me sign up for some sort of deal, so I told him no thanks and hung...

    Tatuaje Black Label, Ruined?

    Last night I lit up a tatuaje black and found it to be fairly harsh tasting, nothing like what has been described by many others. I've let them sit in my Vino for at least a month to get some rest too. When these sticks were delivered to my house the mail carrier decided to put them in my...

    Stinky or CAO Cubist?

    I'm going to pick up the JoeCigar deal of the day so I'll have free shipping on the cubist ashtray right? So I'm thinking its a great time to pick one up, but I've always liked the way the stinky looks and how big it is. What do you guys think? Currently I don't even own an ashtray, I just use...

    Xikars are great, just don't drop them!

    It was looking like a great night until I just went outside to the deck to enjoy an Oliva Serie V Belicoso and dropped my cutter 3 feet to the deck below. To my horror, I looked down to see it had practically exploded. I can only assume there are pieces inside of it because it won't close to...

    Great Place, 100 (101 truly) posts, thanks!

    Just wanted to give a quick thanks to everyone who has been so informative in the 6 months I've lurked and posted (now and again :tu). This place is incredibly giving and helpful with many aspects of cigar smoking and life in general. Also wanted to give my first RG bump out to Catfish who...

    The Balvenie 12 Year, DoubleWood

    I just picked up a bottle from my local liquor store and am looking forward to trying a dram or two tonight. What are your guys thoughts? Also, I had originally intended on picking up a bottle of Lagavulin 16 year due to the great reviews of it here, but it was priced at $82.95! Is that...

    Crisis Barely Averted!

    I was enjoying an Oliva Serie V Torpedo in one of the only rain free days here in Oregon with my dogs when it began to get windy. I turned around to see that my cigar had fallen off the deck railing and into the grass. Horror struck as I noticed one of my dogs running at my stogie wanting to...

    Coolidor = Best buy yet!

    It's unbelievable, I've had it two weeks now and its had absolutely zero problems. Thanks everyone for the write ups and great suggestions on how to make one of these things work! It's sitting at 70 degrees and 68% humidity in my closet, my tunneling, split wrapper, and space problems are all...

    Preferred Lighter $50-$60?

    Right now I use a Jeep lighter I purchased from my local B&M 6 months ago and am completely fed up with it. I've tried Colibri's and a couple others, but it seems like every lighter I buy is finicky and lights when it chooses to. I'm willing to spend some money to get a quality product, but...

    Showin off the new coolidor!

    I've been here a short time at Club Stogie, but have learned one thing very quickly. The slop is VERY STEEP! I heeded your guys advice and now that my humi is full I decided to go with a cooler! I found a 120 qt. Igloo at Walmart and did the usual pound of beads, oust fan, and digital hygro. Is...

    Cigars seem charred while burning?

    I've smoked a few of my sticks in the past couple weeks and each time they don't seem quite right. They seem to tunnel a bit while I smoke, I can see a bulge right before foot of the cigar throughout most of my smoke. When I ash it seems to be very dark gray or black and at times will break off...

    Vinotemp Sales?

    I read through some old threads to try and find the answer to this, but didn't have any luck - Do Vinotemps go on sale often at stores such as Target? I know some of you BOTL's keep very good track of sales and letting forum members in on great deals. I remember seeing the 28 bottle on sale at...

    In aid of a newbie!

    I've learned a lot here at Club Stogie in the short time that I've been a member and its time to give out a big thanks to everyone. With that I'd like to especially thank Catfish who sent me a package after reading about my failure of picking up an Opus in Las Vegas. It's rare to find a...

    Vegas

    I'm very new here, but I figured this would be the place for this. My wife and I just returned from Vegas to see her best friend get married. The only goal I had was to hit Casa Fuente and enjoy my very first Opus. It was only when we were in the airport on our way back home, that my wife asked...
