I don't see how asking a question is rude? Sorry but I consider myself a very polite person and I feel as if you called me rude. I don't see how you making that statement was constructive to the topic. The overall question I had was what are standard practices at b&m's not your opinion on my...

LOL. I don't have any other choices besides the tinderbox, and that place is kind of a dump. Like I said, wasn't really upset, I just don't know what the "normal" is at most places. Also, I felt like a rookie when I was there; my cigar fell off the ashtray and fell on the floor and made a...

Can you point me to a retailer that has them in stock? The places I frequent online do not have them. Also, is there just a regular opus x, or is it just the subcategories of the brand. Basically, I don't know which one to start with.

No I don't buy most from them. This was actually my first time there. When I searched cigar shops in my area, they did not come up. I don't mind their practices, it is what it is, if I were the owner, which I am not, I would allow people to smoke outside stuff as long as you made some...

It's freezing here in Northern Illinois, so I decided to go to the local B&M to smoke. This is the first time I have done this as I prefer to smoke at home and I don't like talking politics, which always seems to be the topic of discussion in those sorts of settings. Anyway, I asked if I...

I have heard such great things about these cigars; however, they seem difficult to find. Is there just a regular Opus X or is all subcategories like lost city, colorado, etc... Where do you buy these? As a side note, I tried a regular Punch cigar at my B&M and was not impressed. Very one...

Famous smoke flyer

How do major makers, such as Padron, AF, and the like control consistency from one cigar roller to the next? When I go to pizza hut they measure and weigh the ingredients out so it's the same pizza no matter where you go. Do they say "use one of these tobacco leaves and two of these leaves"...

What's that all about?

Placed an order with Tampahumidor.com for 2 arturo fuente hemingway short stories and they were sold out so I said charge me twice as much for one cigar and send me a Padron 45. It came in the mail today, "it's a beut Clarke." I hope it's worth the price. If it's plugged, I might cry.

Thanks for the input. I bought an 858 arturo at the same time so i will give that a try. I use heartfelt beads and it's pretty consistent at 68 percent.

1. I tried to smoke a Macanudo Hyde Park Cafe yesterday and couldn't do it. The draw was so tight I couldn't keep the smoke lit and I could barely get any smoke. So then I cut way past the cap just to see what was going on, and it still was incredibly tight and wouldn't go. Anyone else have...

Wow. Pretty pricey

So I have only had a handful of cigars but have definitley developed a list of fyou tavorites. Let me know what you think. 1. La Herencia--these started out spicy but turned into a creamy smooth texture 2. La Herencia Oscuro Fuente 3. 5 Vegas Gold--Pleasently surprised by this CI brand...

It's about 1/3 full. It's a fairly big tupperware container. My humidity has been stable at 67%. Humidity outside has been up and down with the rain we have received the last couple of weeks.
