I recently moved from Tampa. Don't waste your time going to Thompsons; it blows on ice. Metropolitan Cigars is still there (or was 6 months ago anyway) and I also thought it was a cool store (not sure about prices either). Just go to Ybor City and you can visit several cigar stores as well as...

I had the same problem with the Monte platinums I smoked...just too expensive. I would also agree with the Trinidad naturals being in the same category, though I think the maduro is *almost* worth the price.

So some guy takes an oven door our of a box, puts it on a table, and tries using his universal remote on it?

I've seen a lot more people in general smoking these cheapo cigars, including teens. The changes in marijuana use among teens does not account for the doubling in the sales of these cigars though, unless all of a sudden more kids are smoking blunts as opposed to joints or whatever. I would bet...

Thank God I take the El to work, because that is going to be a nightmare. I would be able to walk to work faster than driving if I took 90/94.

I'd go with good Crab Rangu, Hunan Chicken, or Wing Chong Poodle. The worst part about a lot of chinese food is that it is usually cooked in a sauce based on rendered lard, making it really unhealthy. Sure tastes good though.

Looks pretty nice overall. I would bet that it will hold about 150 random sized cigars with those dimensions. I have a 3 drawer 150 count that holds about 115 smokes that doesn't have the glass door in the front, and it has no problems maintaining 65%RH with beads.

I bought beads about 3 weeks ago and they are perfect. I have a 150 count humidor with 3 sawed-off 20oz soda bottles as containers. Before the beads were in it I had two hygrometers giving readings from 58-72% depending on a variety of circumstances. Since then, they have both been at exactly...

The hardest part to believe is that it will go for twice that on CBid.

If you want to imbue the flavor of liquor into a cigar, there is a better way. Just place a 1/2 shot or so into a cigar box and let a cigar sit with it for a few days or so. I've done this using Bacardi Rum and a Cusano 18 because I have ten left that I am bored with. The cigar tasted a lot...

The last serie R I had was a #7 maduro aged for around 8 months. I thought it was somewhat bland, but definitely full-bodied. I just picked up a #5 of the natural and maduro...maybe the smaller ones will be better or the aging mellowed out the #7 too much. The best luck I have had recently...

It doesn't let you know if you got them all right at the end.

A local B&M around here indicated that around father's day a lot of the more sought after Fuente stuff will be coming back, but not until then. I don't know if this is the case for everyone.

I did this contest thing a week ago and the hat & cigar already arrived. It's a pretty nice hat and the CX2 is a robusto. Score it!

Wait, where at the Rocky Patel Connecticut and 5 Vegas in the lineup? :laugh:

Looks pretty nice, but I bet 120 count capacity is a stretch. I have a supposed 125 count capacity humidor that is almost identical in terms of dimensions but only has three drawers. I'm pretty full at 100, and considering that those 5 drawers probably take up more volume than my three...

I think that is what it is supposed to mean as well. However, I ordered a $100 book not that long ago and it was "delivered" 3 days prior to when it showed up at my place. I called the post office the day D.C. said "delivered" and they also said that "delivered" means it was delivered to the...

I've never seen a DC number have no info on it. The DC# is probably incorrect. I have had situations where the DC# indicates delivered and it doesn't reach the person's door for a few days after.

Onyx Reserve, Sancho Panza double maduro, Trinidad Maduro. Trinidad Maduro's are awesome, much better than the natural and actually worth the price.
