    Anyone find they can determine draw by feel?

    No, I can tell how tightly the tobacco is packed, but that's about it. Have you tried you technique on habanos from 99-01?? I've smoked tightly packed cigars that had a loose draw and have smoked a loose feeling cigar with a plug in it. I always test the draw after clipping and before...

    Pre Embargo from CI?

    Those taste like dog s&!t. The pre-embargo tobaccoo is just a gimmic to get you to buy their crappy cigars. Most of these say that they contain some pre embargo tobacco wich translates to a couple shreads of floor sweepings that were found in a corner or under a rug somewhere. if the old...

    My first Tat Black

    Removing them from the foil will allow them to gas out faster but will not allow them to frement if they aren't kept in seald enviornment and close together. When tobacco is fermented at the factory before rolling it is kept in tight bundles and sometimes sealed in barrels so there is little or...

    New Orleans Cigar Factory

    NO Cigar Factory makes some good smokes! I visited their shop in NO last summer and watched them roll while having a smoke. In their humidor they run a dehumidifier since it is soo humid there. The guy who owns the shop is from San Diego where I was living at the time, so we had a lot to talk...

    My first Tat Black

    Don't give up on these yet or burn through your stock. Tat Blacks from the jar release aren't ready to smoke yet. "The Tatuaje Black Label cigars are wet packed in foil and aged about 60 days before released, and it is recommended that they are kept in said foil for 8 months or so to allow...

    Great review and pics! These will be great in a month or two when they dry out a bit. Hopefully these will be a regular release as part of the Cabaiguan maduro line.

    Of the Opus X

    I'm with him. I love Opus, but not fresh. I have smoked a few fresh and if that was my only exposure to these, I certainly wouldn't have any boxes of them in my humi. They need AT LEAST two years of age and they become great smokes.:tu So if any of you guys just bought your first, let them...

    Cabaiguan Belicoso Fino

    I'm with him. A good morning smoke with coffee. The maduro version is more to my liking since it is more in the medium range and ahs more complex flavors, kind of tough to find now tho.

    If you were to buy 1 box of cigars.... What do you suggest I buy for my 1st box?

    What ever you buy, don't buy a box just because it's on sale or seems to be a deal you can't pass up. Most really good cigars don't go on sale much or at all for a reason. Back when I was a new cigar smoker I bought a ton of smokes from cbid. While there are definately some good deals to be...
