    Recommendations for cigar smoker

    Thanks for all the advice I'm smoking the bulks for now and very happy. I don't smoke all that much so it is a real treat when I do. Looking forward to some better weather & a chance to get outside with my pipe. Cheers- Chris

    Well, here are my initial impressions-I seem to like everything I try. Have tried 1Q, RLP-6, BCA, Burley w/o Bite all from Lane, and Virginia Flake from Iwan Reis. I have a British Medium from Reis yet to try, as well as a cherry blend. I do like the pure tobacco taste of the Virginia &...

    I don't know anyplace out in Rosemont, but Iwan Reis is in the Loop on South Wabash, right under the L tracks. You could take the Blue(?)Line into the loop & back. Takes awhile, but you can smoke in the lounge at Reis. $15 and BYOB, have dinner delivered in, etc.

    Recommendations for cigar smoker

    Hello to all- Just bought my first couple corn cobs & looking for a suggestion on tobacco. I am a cigar smoker, mostly Dominican & Nicaraguan leaf / brands. Read somewhere that the mild aromatics would not be so good for me. True? Any suggestions would be appreciated. Cheers- Chris
