I only recently became involved with cigars (I'm only eighteen). At first my parents were not very supportive of my new hobby, but fortunately they have started to come around and now do not mind me smoking the occasional cigar as long as this doesnt become an everyday thing. So I'm curious at...

Hey everybody, I am a 19 year old kid from Connecticut just starting to get into the cigar world. My goal for using this site is to raise my knowledge in different cigars and maybe meet a few cool people along away. I am trying to try out different kinds so any recomendations will be great...

I have been in a cigar slump recently. I've sampled a ton of domestics and keep going back to Padron 1926 naturals and a few others. Perhaps I have narrow tastes. Of course, as excellent as these cigars are they still do become tiring on the palate after a while. I decided to take the plunge...

Now that the FDA has been granted god-like powers to regulate cigarettes and to require graphic warning labels which will occupy a significant portion of the pack, I thought it might be fun to jump into my old time machine and look at what's in store for us next... Brought these images back...

Good day gents of the leaf, just want to pick your brains for a second. Last week I pulled out a Romeo cedros deluxe out of my coolidor(c.oasis operated) and when I pulled the cedar sleeve I noticed a couple of mold splotches toward the center of the cigar. I then dusted the mold off and...

...has there ever been a RASS without construction/burn issues? I've only had a half dozen or so. I'd love to love these cause the price is so right.

here it is after 6-weeks of homework, and several up in smoke, i'm still trying to maintain, on this slippery slope, educating my palette, day by day, many more yet to come my way!

My life is a virtual monument to procrastination, but I'm the first to admit it sometimes backfires on me. This would be one of those times. For years, I've been dumping my grass clippings in a big pile by the back fence, under the assumption that there would be at least some natural...

I bought this one at a very low price as a part of one of the online auction sites. I enjoy cameroon wrappers and had heard this one is tough to b... Read the full review here: Gurkha Regent Torpedo Cigar Review - Pleasing in the beginning.....

Went to go make groceries today. I had got paid a few days prior so I had a little extra to blow. I saw these babybacks laying in the cooler calling my name..... Got them home and dazzled around with some seasonings. Ended up with some Mortons Seasonal Salt, Sugar, Brown Sugar, and springled...

Well even though I have over 1,000 posts I feel like a newbie here. I was a poster on cigarlive and despite being active for less then a year it felt like home. After talking to Doogie last night at the quad state herf I decided to give it a shot... See you in the forums!

Today is a day of celebration. I have been offered a field service job for a very respectable company today. For me, it's more than just another job offer. It's an offer that I have earned through a lot of sacrifice; or so that is how it feels to me. I am feeling a great sense of...

I am super stoked. My target had one vinotemp left in stock and as posted on here in another thread I got it at a steal 149.99. Now I've just got to begin stocking teh darn thing :hn

Not sure how it happened, but these damn noobs got me. I guess somehow I deserved all this for the trash talk. But I am sure by the end it will be way more than I anticipated. Thanks for considering me a worthy target, I know I don't deserve it, but I appreciate it. :tu Here is the damage from...

I'm going to be in Myrtle Beach first full week in August. Anyone interested in getting together for a cigar? Met up with Madurolover last time, but lost his number and he hasn't posted in awhile....

I'm tired of my newbie status.... I'm ready to graduate into something a little more feared. DC# 0103 8555 7494 0319 2743 DC# 0103 8555 7494 2416 4262 The first of many folks... No fancy pictures... just carnage. From here on out, they won't be announced. :mn

I was in the lounge yesterday and was told by the manager that cigarette companies are looking to purchase cigar manufacturing operations. After tasting what the miller beer corporation has done to Leinenkugels, and Rolling Rock beer (these used to be two of my favorites), I'm afraid of what...
