I have smoked 5 cigars(all premium, mostly well known and recommended brazilian brands here) and 5 cigarillos so far, but in every one of them the only thing I could taste was the same aftertaste. While the smoke is in my mouth I don't taste anything. I already tried retrohaling, licking the...

Am I the only one who has loved a cigar one day and hated it the next? I smoked a Boli RC last Saturday night after a steak dinner, with a well diluted bourbon, and it tasted like heaven—the quintessential CC. It became my new favorite cigar. The next afternoon after a decent lunch and cup of...

Habanos says 65-70 rh is good for Cuban cigars. But a lot of people on this forum says 60-65 rh is good for summer days. I cannot underdtand why Habanos says 65-70 rh and %95 of this forum users say 60-65 rh. Can you tell me difference for burn and taste?

Ok so first of all I'm a newbie to cigars. I've always enjoyed cigars but never smoked them regularly until more recently. My question however relates to the flavor profiles of certain cigars. I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong or if cigars made by the same company that are the same...

You guys might think I'm nuts here, but does anyone else taste notes of malt in their smokes? My (very unrefined) palate frequently picks up malted notes, as in malted barley. This usually happens with maduros; not "naturals." Maybe it's just oak / woodiness, which seems to be a very common...

Greetings puffers and pipers alike, As a bit of a newbie to the pipe life, I could use some assistance in finding a good tobacco for me. I started with cigars, and now as a a pipe smoker as well, what I've tried is just miles behind in satisfaction levels for me. I've got quite a few cob and...

Hello Puff users. I've been lurking for some time now, and I've finally decided to join the forum. But, you see, I'm having an issue. An issue that is absolutely plaguing me. I recently got some pipes from Missouri meerschaum. 4, to be precise. Country Gentleman, Diplomat, Eaton, and Ozark...

As a fairly new aficionado, I have a couple of questions. The question that concerns me is since I am not allowed to smoke in my house, where can I enjoy my cigars during the winter months? Because I want to keep my palate developing . I've read some threads where some were saying to smoke at...

I've smoked a few different Gurkhas and i've found them to my liking, specifically the black dragon fury nublizer, and the widowmaker maduro churchill, yet every site i go to there's always someone who flames (interesting choice of a word) the Gurkha brand. I'm interested in peoples'...

I have been through countless threads talking about 65 vs 70% (including aging vs pre smoke dry boxing), different humidification methods etc. What I haven't seen is any good information about how tastes may change given differing storage conditions. I brought a 10 pack of Padilla 1932...

I have been an Ashton VSG smoker for years. This cigar rates as just as good if not better. The draw is magnificent. Read the full review here: La Riqueza La Riqueza No. 1 Cigar Review - Excellent Taste

I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem with the Olivas. I purchased 1 box of V's and 2 G's (Naturals) in July. The G's had an impossible draw and just tasted wet the V's were harsh. I've let them rest and figured this weekend I try them to see if any improvement. The G's loosened up...

I was just smoking a cigar and was contemplating lots of things. I began thinking about how people recommend "that" cigar. Then I realized I was smoking something that wasn't a popular cigar by any means, but it is damn satisfying at the moment. So I began to question, "I wonder if Puff'ers...

I'm sure it has, but yesterday I smoked a cigar from the Old Cuban Cigar Factory, they make their own cigars there. They are really good, before I only thought they where okay, but then I was craving one for some weird reason... So i bought a Churchill yesterday, it was a Connecticut shade...

So you know when you were a kid and had to eat something you didn't want to, you would close off your nose, eat it, and drink it down ASAP. Well, you can cut off your nose from your mouth without squishing your nose-- but rather just by raising the back of your tongue to meet with the roof of...

Had my first My Father not too long ago and absolutely loved it. However with my budget I can not afford to smoke them regularly. Any suggestions on good cigars that are similar in taste but won't break the bank? Thanks in advance!
