So the whole Tatuaje sweet potato thread got me thinking, "I wonder what other strange flavors people have experienced." So far for me, it was with a CAO Brazilia. For a few draws there in the middle I swear I tasted marshmallow. It came right on the end of the finish, but I couldn't quite...

Like many here, I've amassed a nice collection of briar over the last decade or so. I have over 100 dunhills, Castellos, savinellis, ser jacopos, mastro's, Peterson's, etc that are usually enjoyed with a nice heavy english blend with at least some age on it. I, like many posters have no...

Hey everyone! I know, its been a good long while since I've been on here regularly, but stateside work likes to block the forums as it has to do with tobacco. weak. Anyway, a lot has been going on with me here lately. A lot of joy, a lot of stress and even a litle trouble in paradise. Just know...

Ok. So my favorite pairing with cigars tends to be either a nice glass of single malt scotch or Ron Zacapa 23yr. I found a strange pairing that worked for whatever reason tonight. I was drinking Gatorade G2 Glacier Freeze with Padron 3000. Probably not a recommended pairing, but I was...

Came across this and thought I would share. George Braunsdorf, left, 6 feet 4 inches and Joe Damone, 5 feet 1 inch, demonstrate a pipe called the "Double Ender" in New York, June 2, 1949. According to its manufacturer, the pipe was designed as a means of conserving tobacco by a couple of...

After having the opportunity to smoke several Opus X cigars I am becoming curious about some of the reviews I've read in the following days. Many of the reviewers mention prominent spice and a full-bodied experience. Honestly, I didn't get any spice - just a very smooth, almost subdued...

hey guys, after doing some reading on puff i decided to get some 65% RH beads to put in my new Xikar humi. but i've been having some serious problems trying to get the humidity to 65%.. my shortened saga is as follows :boohoo: bought a new Xikar 100 count humi and seasoned it as per Hurf's...

Well, for starters it should be said this is really 3 cigars wrapped around each other (tied together with string), so it's really not just one cig... Read the full review here: Natural Medusa Cigar Review - Strange but not bad

I know I have not been on here in ages, but this will explain why: ADVENTURES

Let me start by saying I am not much of a fan of Dominican tobacco. And in Canada, even moderately priced cigars are expensive. At almost $30 thi... Read the full review here: Gurkha Vintage Shaggy XO Cigar Review - Strange Shaggy XO

Just pulled the trigger on these..... Picked them up on the monster for right at 50.00 plus free shipping. I've wanted to try one ever since I saw these on a review here on Puff. This seemed like a good deal on them, and I'll have extras to put to bed for a while. But in general, I'm...

I would like someone's opinion on this, my wife and I are both sick at the moment. We both have the same head cold/cough/sore throat...not too surprising, pretty typical. Here's the weird part...we are both experiencing strange stomach muscle pain. It starts at the top of our abdominal...

Those who feel such a strong compulsion to write reviews on tobaccoreviews.com that they jump the gun and don't bother to smoke the tobacco first. I noticed two (specifics withheld) reviews recently where one reviewer wrote about how a very much straight virginia tobacco with "cavendish" in the...

Well, on Monday, I was suppose to go to my cousins Lacrosse game down the Cape with my grandma (about a half hour drive), had some work to do so I ended up not going with her. After the game she was driving back to my Aunt and Uncles house when a lady they knew came running out og her house in...

My dad sent me some pipes from when he smokes in the early 70s. Two of the stems are different that anythin I have encountered. One is a Dr. Grabow and the other a Whitehall. The Dr. Grabow screws on. They both have this metal tip that extends from the stem into the shank/bowl. Not sure...

Have you ever seen a cigar ash like this? I haven't. This was a 5 Vegas Cask Strength. A nice smoke that I enjoyed, but a lot stronger than I thought it would be. It burned nice and straight but the ash, as you can see split open for the first inch. Strange. Has this 5 Vegas Cask Strength line...

I went to a friend's college graduation last Saturday, and was surprised to find the following: If the Trinidad Reyes wasn't such a new vitola, I'd wonder about that kid's parents, and kinda want to meet them :D

After trying most everything I could figure out to get the oxidation off the bit and stem of my estate pipe, I tried using oxygenated shoe cleaner. Strangely enough, this worked really well. After soaking the bit for a while in the cleaner, you could see it turn brown and nasty. I guess if you...

I have to admit that I am getting back to cigars after a very long hiatus. After my son was born I never got two minutes to myself let alone time to relax for a cigar. The exceptions were the rare occasions out with the guys and golf outings but even in those instances I feel you arent able to...

Ok so as some will know I posted up a sale to rid myself of a bunch of NC stock that I had. One such mostly full box was a box of CAO Brazilia GOL now while I like this stick I was ruthless in clearing out my stock. Mike (Mike32312) PM'd me on the sticks and we are off to the races. Now I...
