    What Cigar Are You Smoking? 2025

    Apparently yeah, till it's gone which will be ?? that's ugly. I got my box for under $10 and I think under $9 per, but I suppose it was 2 years ago.. I thought this too. None of my (3) local retailers could tell me anything about it. But then they really didn't stock the x000 line except for...

    Opening A Tin? Show Us!

    Love the series, although #5 is the one I haven't tried That one's flavored a bit with something. I forget- maple? Please let us know how you like it, and how strong you find the flavoring *I like aging mine, too. Smoking some 6 year #2 right now

    Cigar Collection

    Thanks for expanding Maybe it's more complicated, I dunno. Sounds like you've enjoyed a few cigars though so maybe it's all worth it? 1: I don't think you need to 2: smart, you shouldn't trust 'em. Boveda makes a Calibration kit 3: short version- no, unless (artificially) flavored or fire cured

    Cigar Collection

    I have a lot of questions, but will limit to 1 for now- How were the cigars stored prior to your custody? Were they in operational (seasoned and humidified) wood humidors? *that counts as a single question :) Welcome to the fun, sometimes frustrating, much more expensive than pipe tobacco...

    What Cigar Are You Smoking? 2025

    Happy birthday! And welcome Just a little Exquisito for my ride home today Very good, unintentionally rested a year which smoothed them out real nice. Seriously tempted to get another 50-box but I might like those little Antaños more due to 1) strength 2) just a little smaller

    What Cigar Are You Smoking? 2025

    Just a little Hot Cake Half Corona for me on the ride home. 6 months and drop to 62rh has been kind to these. If the next few are as good I'll buy another box for next summer Thinking about a Fuente for tomorrow...

    Jorge Cigars - Question

    I'm not familiar with the Jorge brand, sorry Cigars can be frustrating. I heard it said once that with cigars a lot of choices have already been made for you (as compared to pipe). Sometimes stuff happens that can't be properly fixed. Curious where the unraveling is starting from... the head...
