I tried a russian vodka a couple of years ago, I think the name is "Brilliant". Really good.. almost as good is "Standardt" and next in line is "Flagman". All russian.. Absolut doesn't even come close. Of course, I'm only talking about when drinking it straight, for mixing anything works...

I usually order thru my brother (who lives in Atlanta, Ga), but he's home (that is here, in Sweden) on vacation for another couple of weeks, and I don't want my sticks laying around in some post office until he can pick them up. I'll have to wait and see if someone is willing to help me out on...

If anyone is interested in splitting that I'd like to try a 5er.. (and would also like to split a Fusion MM-sampler, the "Rocky Patel Double Maduro Mega-Sampler", with someone) Can't order from CI internationally. :( Pm me! /Pac

No one? How about just receiving them and re-send the whole thing to Sweden then? (I would normally ask my brother who lives in Atlanta, but he's away on vacation for another month..) /Pac

This is one of the cigars on my wish list.. and as far as I know CI don't ship international. Anyone interested in a split? I'd like the rob's and torp's if someone wants to have the others, and repack and send me them.. Pm me! /Pac

Haven't tried that many but the Brazilia Piranha's are great, as are the Cariocas (but they were sold out everywhere when I tried to buy some more to bring home :/ ). The Criollo pampas before 2005 (I've only tried one) where great, and if I could find them I'd buy a box or two. The later...

Sounds very interesting, where do we sign up for the first sticks off the production line? :ss /Pac

I bought a couple SFO's and Exotic blends II which I took home with me on my latest trip to the US, have only tried a couple of the EBII yet but they're really great! I would say that they're almost comparable to RP vintage -92, at least on my palate. /Pac

I must really recommend any gorilla in the area to stop by Jim's place! Great selection, some hard to find sticks, and if you're lucky you'll get a deal on what you buy! Jim also tried to gift me a CS pin, but since I already had one (Thanks Mike!) I left it for the next gorilla to walk in...

I used to think that they were great, although a little pricey (you get what you pay for.. customer service costs, and I usually think it's worth a little more to have a knowledgeable sales staff and good service), and have ordered a lot from them. However, just a short while back I had a $100...

The calibration kit is basically just a fancy salt test, it works by the same principles but they use fancier materials and stuff. Just use the calibration kit and you'll be all set! (or at least your hygrometer will be.. :tu ) And it's a good idea to re-calibrate once in a while, my digital...

Do that, and listen to what Scoot tells you.. if he tells you to re-calibrate your hygro when you complain about the RH in your humi, you better re-calibrate your humi before going any further! (had a tad high RH in one of my humi's and it didn't want to change.. after salt testing and...

Another non-voter here, I've tried a couple of Habanos and a Cameroon, liked the taste of the Habanos but the Cam did nothing for me. I don't know if it's because I've heard about the 'theory' or if it really is real, but I thought they started out tasting good (or not at all, as was the case...

I have the same box, but bought it from cigar.com about a year ago. Think it originally was a microphone case, I just removed the foam and cut some thin foam to put between layers of sticks. I either put a humi-pillow in there or just go without (if it's just for a day or two). And I...

Same here, have had heartfelts beads for a year and am very satisfied, but recently purchased some 'soft sticks' from shilala and they seem to be doing their job brilliantly too! One important note though; no matter what you hear, don't pour water directly on the beads, they'll crack and you...

Tell me 'bout it.. dropped mine one night while working at a concert (couldn't leave my post) and since I didn't have any backup I just had to put it back together.. took a while but it's back in full working order. The first time one came apart it was because the screw undid itself, and that...

My fav is still the Habano (only tried the 460 so far), the Cameroon just lacked taste altoghether. Have a Conn to try some day too, but don't think it will be more flavor than the Habano. Wrapper issues on almost everyone, both from the sampler and the 460 Habano box. A few have made it...

Would it work for a dealer in Sweden too? (I assume it doesn't, but doesn't hurt to ask.. ;)) Maybe time to set something similar up in Europe, and do something to protect our rights too? There's hardly anywhere left here in Stockholm where one can smoke indoors during the long and harsh...

As has been said, some foam (http://www.cigaraccessories.cigarsolutions.com/travelhumidortrays.html , from a fellow gorillas online shop) and if you feel the need for humidification some humidity sheets from Heartfelt industries (I think Dave is a gorilla too, at least he's a true BOTL, great...

PM me your address and I'll get you some from this side of the big lake. /Pac
