hat - nice looking torpedo there.
Haven't smoked in awhile but used to be pretty heavy with my golf and poker buddies. Smoked many different and always ended up back at the same place.
Hoya de Monterrey, Excalibur #1. Smoothest smoke I have ever had. Smoked probably a 1000 of them and never a bad one.

I'm pretty much a Fuente head, and I prefer the short stories.
The Hemmingway's are fantastic. Those are what I handed out after my second was born. Yes, it was expensive.
It's about time a thread like this started! I really need to inventory my humi, but i know i've got a couple of R&J cubans, some Fuente's i give out to friends, and a bunch of Mantequillas :pepper:
I'll see if I can dig up some pics of my humi. Right now it's got some Monte #2's that I bought years ago that I believe are ISOM's, the dwindlings of whats left from a box of Mantequillas and Casa Blancas that I bought from JR.
Went to Vendome the other day and bought my very first Padron 64's and a Don Pepin. I've heard so much about them that when I saw them I had to try them.
If anyone's looking for a beast of a cigar, I recommend a La Flor Dominicana. I had a Chisel a few weeks ago (double ligero). Awesome. Might have to pick me up a box of 'em!
I know Vendome used to have a cigar special on Thursdays. It was either buy 1 get 1 free or 50% off. Do they still do that?Quote:

I don't really know. They used to have a deal like that on Tuesdays but I don't know if they still do that.Quote:

First I would make sure that there is no mold or worms, if it rattles, that's not good.Quote:

Good LUck :wavetowel

Now what I noticed about the ESG is that it started very peppery and mellowed by the 1/2 point. but regardless I nubbed it anyways! (thanks eyesk8r)
and my personal favorite cigar:

most peppery and bestest cigar thats not cuban! (until I find something better that is :) )
WTH, do you have a money tree in your backyard? I had the ESG earlier tonight and it was only peppery for the first half inch or so...I then had the Zino platinum and it was awesome.Quote:
