This event has featured some of the best cigar makers, and has a someone different every month. I have smoked Rocky Patel, La Flor Dominicana...

    Dry Boxing?

    I have come across some burn issues as of late, and the more research I do around here, the more I hear the term "dry boxing". I can imagine this means letting a cigar sit in a box, at room temp/humidity, but I am not sure. Here are some questions I have: 1.) What is the process used to...

    Another 5 Vegas Series A, but w/pics.

    I did a search of reviews for the 5 Vegas Series "A", and I found several reviews. I realize I am not the first to write a review on this stick, but everyone has an opinion, and here is mine. I have to let the cat outta the bag at the beginning, and say that I loved this cigar. From the time...

    Another Illusione sucess story

    I met a couple of my good friends in town at one of my favorite B&M's for a good smoke and some conversation. I didn't bring a stick, on purpose, so I would buy one there, and I fully intended on trying something new. For whatever reason, I ended up in front of the Illusione display, again. I...

    Burl Wood Palio Cutter

    I have searched the cigar universe, both online and otherwise, far and wide for a burl wood Palio cutter. I have been unsuccessful in my endevors, and need the help of my fellow gorillas. Apparently eveyone is out of stock. Anyone know where I can find one of these? A website? A local B&M? Any...

    Ghurka Shaggy

    I read these reviews very often and I take alot from them. So, in an effort to give back any much as I take, here is my take on the Ghurka Shaggy. This stick was given to me by a good friend. I let it sit in my humi for some time, and I recently felt the urge to light 'er up. This is a...

    Vector Cutter

    This is a fairly new Vector cutter I purchased from a local B&M. I am very disappointed in the quality of this product. Before I permanantly lost the screws you see missing in the photo, there were several other times I found them and put them back on. It seemed as though I was always looking...

    Cigar bands

    I have been collecting the bands from every new cigar I smoked, without duplication, for a while now. I have some ideas for what to do with my collection, but find myself curious if anyone else does the same thing. What do you do with your bands? It'd be cool to see pics of the collections too!

    La Flor Dominicana Ligero

    La Flor Dominicana, or LFD, recently had a promotion at my local B&M, where I had this smoke. The build and construction were great. The beautiful color of the Sumatra wrapper and the nice looking band immediately caught my eye. Very good looking smoke. Since it was given to me by the promoter...

    Cabinet conversion.... ?

    My wife and I picked up this display cabinet really cheap some time ago. It never got used for the purpose she intended, so it sat in the garage. I pulled it out and thought to myself that this would make a really nice humdor if I could convert it. I am very motivated but not the most...

    Salt test help...

    I have fought the good fight. I took the noob advice to heart and tried to find it on my own without duplicating this question. However; I have performed multiple searches, and have come up empty each time. Either I am too stupid to correctly use the search engine, or didn't see the answer I was...
