I had picked up a random Padron maduro to try out and crap hit me hard but it wasn't a bad smoke. I don't recall what line of Padron it was.

My wife loves La Fontana cause they are really smooth with a nice taste on the wrapper that she can taste on her lips as she takes a hit. I've grown very fond of them and they are dirt cheap; $50 for a box of 20 at jrcigars.

Padron 2000

Being in NY I enjoy any smoke in the warmer months. Sucks smoking outside in cold (I have kids so I don't smoke indoors).

Childhood nickname that stuck.

When I first started smoking I would experiment by flicking the ash off often, then keeping it on as long as I can just to see why others tend to keep the ash long. I found that the ash being on does give a smoother draw while my personal findings is that once the ash falls off, which is...

La Fontana's are GREAT beginner stogies. My wife started smoking with me and she found a lot of what we were trying to be too strong and at the suggestion of my local smoke shop we got a La Fontana and she loves them. They are very smooth and the wrapper leaves a nice taste on your lips with...

I got a La Fontana last week and smoked it this weekend and it was a really good smoke. My buddy said it was very entry level but damn it was pretty good. Anyone know of suggestions of other brands that smoke like it; mild yet tasty? I liked how it left a taste on my lips with each draw.

I need a smoke!

I guess I'll find out soon. I've intentionally been leaving one stick in the humidor for the past month to see if something happens (RH is holding steady at 65%). I have about 5 other new sticks that are only about a week old. Since it does get warm in the house when I'm not home I've only...

Curious, how long would the sticks have to be exposed to higher temps to run into problems? I'd do a search but since you brought up temperature figured I'd ask. My sticks are in the coolest room of my house (we don't have a basement) but we don't keep the a/c on all day while at work. So my...

That advanced search is the way to go cause the regular search is useless. I've found posts that even say the regular search is useless.

I'll try that suggestion. Since my wife & I are newbs we keep only about 8-10 in our humidor at anytime and it's holding at 65% humidity with our Drymistat tube inside.

I searched but couldn't find an answer but, obviously I'm a newbie. My question is how do I get an even burn rate on my cigars? I've been experimenting with different brands with a few Arturo Fuentes being my first batch of smokes and those burned nicely. Since that first batch I've had Romeo &...

I'm a newbie myself so I'm not entirely sure I have "taste" down packed but I am experimenting with different brands to try and differentiate between the tastes. For my first humidor I was going to go the tupperware route but found a humi on craigslist for $20 (used of course). Since my home...

I work right on Lexington Avenue and guys from my office frequent the perfect pint often. If guys are getting together next month I'm sure I can stop in to hang.
