My favorite rum is Tommy Bahama Golden Sun. It is no longer to be distributed thruout the states , it will only be sold at their resturants. So the past summer I've been driving around to all my local liquor stores and purchasing what I can. Well lately I've come up dry and I've drank most of...

Today I went on one of my last visits to the lcdh in nuremburg. Smoked a Monte EL 2003. It was by far one of the best smokes ive EVER had. I just wanted to show some pics and share with you guys the awesome time rocker06(dustin) and I had. Here is us with our favorite employee at the casa. If...

I must be the odd man out. I've been experimenting with different humidity levels for my cigars. It appears the consensus on Puff is that 65% relative humidity makes for a better burning, more tasteful smoke. I've had a different experience: A cigar with burn issues at 70% still has issues at...

Hello all, just throwing a line out there. I'm interested in trying a Pot shaped pipe, and I really like some of the poker/sitter type Pots GBD made years ago. I'm also interested in some of the non-classic shaped GBD's in general. Second, I'm looking for a straight, squat bulldog. I'd love...

After much anticipation, I finally got my Peterson Shannon #80 bent Bulldog.. I've smoked a few bowls through it, and have noticed on every bowl after a few puffs I'm getting a weird gurgle. I say weird because it isn't coming from the hole in the bottom of the bowl. It's coming from the...

im no english major, but in school we were told that if a word starts with a consinent, you put an A before it. i.e. "i want a pickle" if it starts with a vowel, you use AN, i.e. "im eating an apple" as i remember it, we were never told that this was a rule of thumb, it was told to us that...

lI get emails from Cheaphumidors sometimes. The latest one was "Top 10 Cigar Tips." The first tip was.... "1. To make sure your cigar cutter stays sharp and clean, keep the wrapper on your cigar before cutting." I had never heard this before. Does anyone else cut their cigar with the...

Alright, so what happened here? I've had a 5 Vegas AAA in the humi for a few weeks now. I've tried several 5 Vegas sticks and found most all quite nice, so I was really looking forward to this. Upon lighting there was an all-out assault on my taste buds, that was not at all unpleasant...

Diesel Diesel Unholy Cocktail Cigar Review - Diesel Unholy Cocktail - Odd Name/Good Ciga I had my 1st Unholy Cocktail recently and I was impressed. This cigar is better than some that have seen for 2x's or 3x's more expensive. The cig... Read the full review here: Diesel Diesel Unholy...

This weekend I smoked a Padron 64 45 Years Maddy in celebration of my brother-in-law's newborn son. About midway through the smoke I started getting a very odd aftertaste. The draw in tasted like a lot of bitter coffee and chocolate and the smoke was very chewy, but the aftertaste had a chewy...

I have not smoked a RP 90 or 92 in 3 years. For some reason today; I have a feeling to smoke one. Yes or No?

I recently built a walkin humidor. I followed all steps to make sure it is built "correctly". I have a large humidifer that keeps the room at 65-70% relative humidity and a small a/c unit that keeps it at about 68 degrees. Feels right in there. There is an odd film that in on my boxes of...

I'm a complete cigar newb so I'm hoping that this makes sense. I had a Perdomo Lot 23 a couple days back and while I enjoyed it, it seemed like it was passing burning ash through it, except that it wasn't. What I mean is that after a few puffs I started getting a bit of a burning sensation in...

I saw this Ronny Thuner pipe listed as an estate on smokingpipes, and I thought it looked familiar. Sure enough, I had seen it before. Frenchy sold it (new) on his site for $375: Ronny Thuner #82 Hand Made In Sweden As an estate graded Condition: 4.9/5 Mint, it sold for the low low price of...

Here's my odd question of the day for a relative noob to the pipe world: After looking at pipe bags at my local shop, and realizing they want just too darn much for them (sorry Jeremy if you are watching), I went out in search of something cheaper. I currently carry all my "stuff" in a cigar...

So a while ago I was given a lot of estate pipes that was purchased at the local flea market. I cleaned them up, salt treated them and all but one seem good to go. The one in particular was a Royal Duke Dr.Grabow. it has a blue spade, I don't know if that means anything. So I salt treated it a...

Got this email from cheaphumidors.com today and found it pretty interesting and funny. Well it is official, the tax on cigars has started. So what does that mean for you? It depends really. Some manufacturers are eating the price increase. Some are passing them on to the customers. We are...

I already know that I'm weird, so I won't bother asking THAT question. Ever tried a good cameroon paired with a Drambuie on the rocks, followed by a good micro-brewed root-beer? You'd be amazed. Theres something in a good (cane sugar) root beer that plays off the spices in the Drambuie and...
