Some of you might remember that I reviewed a couple of CI's "unsmokeables" line about a year ago. Here's my original review thread: http://www.cigarforums.net/forums/vb/non-habanos-reviews/275812-cis-unsmokeables-they-cant-bad.html Another BOTL who read that thread actually PM'ed me and asked...

After a few months of humidor time, this cigar really blossomed. The leather went from front to back and the spices developed. I could taste some... Read the full review here: Padilla Habano Robusto Cigar Review - Revisited

Hello MarkC, PROGRESS!! Awhile back, I was asking about HotW and you suggested spreading the contents of the tin out on some paper, putting it back, and letting it sit in the tin for awhile. I did exactly that, and fired up a bowl again last night in a pre-trans Barling billiard and the...

I used to tune in from time to time to catch an episode while it was on TV but recently, after seeing it on Netflix, I have been burning through the first season and am about ready to hit Season 2. This show is really funny and they are now getting to the point where the main characters each...

As a Child I was utterly fascinated by literature, in particular the likes of Edgar Allan Poe, Howard Phillips Lovecraft, and of course, the pipemaster himself, Tolkein. I speak specifically of his masterpiece, The Hobbit. I could go on and on about how much I love this story, and how...

As noted in my previous review, I had another sample to try, so here goes... Pre-light, stick #2 of 2 promised to a repeat performance. Post-lig... Read the full review here: 5 Vegas Limitada 2008 Belicoso Cigar Review - Revisited

Hello to all: Well in a few short months, I know have everything I think I need to enjoy and preserve my cigars, except still for a darned travel humidor. Which I will keep in my truck, and refill as necessary. I think I am swinging towards the cigar caddy 15. I have searched and...

Dug one out tonight with a few years of age on it and a nice spotty, streaky plume showing on the wrapper and was blown away! In the few years I ha... Read the full review here: Montecristo (Cuba) Edmundo Cigar Review - Revisited and delighted

Ive had two of these in the humi for like 2 years now....leftovers from a box I went through really quick. WOW! age does wonders for these. I mean they were always good but now they are just really really smooth and not one hint of anything harsh or tangy. I was so blown away I decided to buy a...

I did a review on these back on April 2, 2007: >>While they are not as full or maybe even as complex as some of Pepin's other blends, for the price these are excellent. During the final third I tasted a ginger bread sweetness to it, and I found the draw loosened up during the second half. Not a...

Well, im not going to make this very formal. Because i'm here to report back about the brand that is Taboo. The Backstory: I recently smoked a less-than-average Taboo and i wrote a review about it. After a huge response about "you need to try another" because i got a bad lemon. I tried...

i have the worst luck with lighters bought a firebird torch at my b&m and it crapped out already i know nick>>> get a ronson< but i couldnt find any

This evening when I got home from work I was craving a cigar something kinda bad. I headed to the humi and started digging around and I noticed this box hidding in the back. I moved some junk out of the way and pulled it out to do an inspection to make sure everything was going alright. When I...

I wrote a review on 3/18/08 on this same cigar in which I had issues with the wrapper swelling & cracking. I lit up a fresh Oliva "O" Natural torpedo that I purchased this morning from the local Tinder Box B&H. The salesman is a super guy who fixed my lighter for free, so I wanted to at least...

I really can't get enough of this epic movie. Sci-Fi and many technical errors aside, I loved this movie. This was actually the longest I have ever waited in line to see a movie on opening day (3 hours!), but well worth the cinematic experience. And who can argue with an excellent cigar smoking...

I posted a review on 2/1/08 for "My first Strong Cigar". I enjoyed this smoke immensely, but I had serious burn issues and was able to smoke only 2/3 of the stick. On the advice of all the more experienced gorillas, I rested the remainder of my "5-pack" at 65RH in a new, but "seasoned" humi...

Since I have been a member of CS I have been trying a lot of new cigars because of trades, bombs and "read about and have to try." So I dipped into my humidor and pulled out my old favorite, LGC Wavell maduro, which I have forgotten how it tasted. Whoa, no wonder I have not been impressed by a...

For Christmas, my wife purchased me a turntable that has a USB output, so I can convert some of my old LPs to MP3s. Software included, a little quirky, but getting better as I get to know the program. As a result, I've been experiencing some of the great songs on LPs that never got airplay...

Watched about 1/2 before pausing to watch some football. It has been quite a while since I've seen this, and I used to get a different moral of the story than I do now. Now, I see the movie as how, even a Superman, can get charmed into doing something STUPID (becoming mortal) despite what he...

I was thinking about posting this question today because I lit up an Indian Tabac that I use to love but haven't had in several months. It was good but it wasn't as thrilling as I remember. It could be that I simply have a new favorite NC cigar, that being the Padron x000 series. That's my...
