Hi everyone, Recently, I got my friend into smoking cigars with me, and he has acquired some cigars from a friend. He claims his friend knows a thing or two about cigars and claims they are real. we all know that means absolutely nothing so ive come here for some insight. To me, they seem...

Lit this on Veterans, what a nice time it was... Appearance; a rough and veiny cigar, but that doesn't bother me. Taste was nice from first draw to last. Very nice and smooth. Top ten, for me Burn was a little off at first but it evened out about half an inch into the smoke. After that...

For those who are interested in this stick you can get these through Smokeinn.com. National launch was this past Saturday. Did review on stick last Friday. Really a nice mild maduro stick.

So, I decided to fire up the R&J Churchill tubo I had sitting in the humi for a couple years. It was alone, in the abandoned section just waiting for the right time. The cigar actually looked pretty good. Nice triple cap, good color, smelled OK. Slightly veiny, but fairly typical. The...

Hey guys. Hypothetically, say you come into a box with an old box sticker with a PVC S6.00 code: does this ring legit? Thanks, Lee

My buddy gave me these. He travels overseas regularly and normally gets stuff at reputable places. These were picked up in Poland at a hotel bar. The Cohiba seems fake to me, just looking at the C in Cuba, can someone confirm this? The R&J is much more difficult. It is exactly 7" long...

I was bringing some Cuban cigars back from Taiwan and got busted by Customs. Rather than take away the cigars, the agent opened each tube, took out the cigar and used his knife to cut it open lengthwise. He graciously left me some undamaged. I was wondering if I could get some ideas on how to...

Recently recieved a Romeo & Juliet as a gift. It had the R&J ring but also had a black line below the regular R&J. Price was $18.50 for the stick. Conneticut wrapper and churchill size. It had a special name but I can't remember (scotch was involved). Any ideas would be appreciated. JC

Anyone have thoughts on this cigar so far? Tried one last night and so-so impressed. Excellent construction as expected, and this EL has the similar failings as other new EL's have had on me- not much flavor. The power is there, and I think this will outdo the Cazadores with some age on it...

What an outstanding cigar. My first Clem, and I had set it aside to smoke upon the birth of my son. Unfortunately, things were so hectic around that time that I never got around to smoking it. I finally got a chance to do so on Thursday night while hanging out with Allan at his house in KC (a...

I've once again been inspired to go for my keyboard by this rustic golden beauty at 44 x 6 3/8. The box was May '05 and the moment I peeled open the foil wrapped bundle I was hit with an intoxicating aroma which was very unique. I ran the oily wrappers under my nose and took in strong pure...

Were R&J Churchills ever packaged in a metal tin/box? more clarifiation.... would they be packaged as 25 tubos in a metal tin/box?

So I dunno nuttin about ISOMs. I smoked one on a trip to Canada 25 years ago, and cannot remember what it tasted like. I enjoy a variety of the small republics northwest of the ISOM, but of course I have had a philosophical hankering for the real deal since I returned to burning leaves again a...

I had an R&J Churchill that I think I got from the LXXX Box pass thing that ComicBookFreak did a while back. I don't know how old it was, but either it is a notably different blend that what I have had previously or it had at least a few years on it. I don't always have the time it takes to do...

I picked this cigar up at my B&M as a part of my self-directed (but CS researched) "Expand Your Horizons" effort. This is also my first review, so here goes: Since purchasing it, this stick had rested in my humi at 65% for about two weeks. The construction was nice, although it seemed a...

First one of these I have tried so far. A short robusto sized beauty with a thin shiny (oily) colorado wrapper and perfect construcion. In your hand they feel heavy for the size, and rolling it between my fingers it feels dense and moist. It seems that the cigars I like most have this dense...

Let me start by saying that I am not a particular fan of the RyJ line. Somehow, of all the marque's I am the least experienced, and enthusiastic, of RyJ's. I do like the Churchill on occasion (when they are good) and I like the Celestial Finos. The one I had last night was from 96 and in my...

I had one of these last night and wanted to share some things with the jungle bunch and get some feedback. This isn't really a review since I am a noob. First off-it was a great smoke. I think it was a III, but it was my first time in a walk-in humidor at a cigar shop and next time I will...

What is the difference between the two? Both are the same gauge and length? http://www.intertabak.ch/f/20Ahabanos/20A1012romeo.shtml

this is a mature cigar. all hints of harshness and youth are gone. this stick lights up perfectly and burns even, probably a sign of good storage and plenty of age. starts off rather light, with a taste that is pure tobacco. about an inch in flavors start to be present. at times i'm tasting...
