I Had A Cigar: A Confession

[gray4lines]

I like to pay from $2 to $4 for most cigars, and I will go up to $5-$7 on a few if I'm picking out a couple at a B&M. It hurts for me to cross the $10 mark for one cigar.
While these aren't "bundle sticks" any of the 5 Vegas lines are very good and well priced. They can typically be had for $2-$4 each and I think are a great cigar (I especially like the 'A' series and Miami's). Also, Padron's can be very reasonable in some sizes (My favorite is the "londres" size maduro which is usually around $2.00 and change)
Padron's are cigar legends, and I think it's cool that you can get a $2 smoke all the way up to a $25+ smoke from them, all are fantastic.

i enjoy cigars myself. they do cost more, i have an oasis humidifier that keeps my cigars ready too smoke. plus the aging factor. my cigars are 10-14 years old. the top self has many loose cigars that can not be seen in the photo. the cabinet is lined with spanish ceder. i guess i have~ 100-200 cigars. i really like the pics here guys. i have cubans as well. the cheaper ones machine rolled. i have enjoyed cigars for many years. i still love my pipes though. i would like too see some more pics of members cigars.
take care.
mike.

Mike, that is awesome! I hope to have a cabinet one day. Right now I have 2 smaller humidors, with maybe 120 cigars stuffed in.
Never tried a Cuban (yet) but I have a few generously given to me that I will enjoy soon!

Glad to see I'm not the only Gurkha fan...

I always smoke cigars on the golf course because they are much less of a bother

during the game. A pipe is to distracting.

I have smoked Cubans - one of the advantages to living close to Canada. They are very good, but I am not sure they are worth the extra price.

I like a medium strength cigar, with an EMS wrapper. Although I started with heftier ring gauges, over time I have drifted to the classic corona size, a 42 ring or thereabouts. I like the way they burn. I tend to smoke coronas or, occasionally, a lonsdale or half-corona. If I am paying a higher price, the cigar is probably a Montecristo.

Haha! Yeah, I can enjoy some gurkha's. That was a Titan, one of my favorites. Of course, I never pay Gurkha price for them!

Most of the cigars in my humidors are Gurkha's.. Always pick them up on deals or with box discounts... Have only paid full retail a handfull of times...

Rocky Patels for me. the battalion, edge, or decade are great smokes if your wanting a full bodied cigar. for an "are" cigar or when im around non smokers i go with an acid or CAO.
