Building off the above. Some people just can't smoke smaller gauge cigars and others refuse to. Some people just can's smoke larger gauge cigars and others refuse to. I would say the best Padron to me is one that is a higher ring gauge. I don't take too many puffs per hour but I sure can't...

Short story...not bad...

What a neat idea! How does it hold up if you accidentally drop the red not ash instead of standard ashes?

Yeah I can't really complain about the Mayorgas. Another cheap cigar I could add to this list, but I haven't tried is the Alec Bradley Supervisors. They are pretty huge and likely the next box I purchase. Could be a little strong for occasional smokers being 60X6"+ but at around $3 or less...

I don't know of any plants that will effectively keep up with the population and not require a whole farm planted. What I can tell you, and it has been unreal effective for me is to install outdoor post lamps or some wall sconce lighting against your house. Then hang some fly strips from them...

I badhangover is on the money. Some shops literally have you enter a heated sauna. Others, including some of the better small shops near me actually stick to a happy medium of around where we like to generally keep our personal humidors. I will never understand why high humidity is preferred...

I wish I worked for a cigar company :( If you look in detail you will see that I posted a HORRIBLE review of JR alternatives and will never purchase another JR house brand cigar (holts and famous have some house brands I can really appreciate). If your read in further detail you will note that...

I can't speak for the 2000 yet because its still cooking in the humidor but I can say positively that everyone would adore a Mayorga cigar. I've never seen a cigar with that more of my cigar-smoker and non-smoker friends love when I give them one. You could get a box of Toro sized cigars for...

Never again. That was 3 in a row that have failed failed failed. Can't stay lit, tastes like cardboard, no smoke then some smoke! The Holts Factory Special or something like that are delicious and amazing. The famous smokes are good as can be. I can say without fail that I will never...

I was working outside and I guess it was the glare.

Now that you explain it I can actually see it perfectly! Haha, I was so confused at first.

Did you smoke your shoe or something? The picture you posted doesn't seem to mean anything... :sign:

I've only had 2 JR Alternatives and they were beyond horrible. These were the JR Alternative Cuban Alternatives to Cohiba. They canoe'd, and had a ridiculously hot smoke (like there was coal in there!) and gave me a generally annoyed feeling. Both had the same characteristics. One was right...

Cool, I think the cigar shaped humidifiers are the best bet too. I just remembered those exist when you mentioned them. I'll get a couple choice pictures of my new humidor and my pyramid humidor up tonight.

Well I was at the JR store and wouldn't you know it they had a beautiful H.Upmann humidor I just had to own. So I got it. Just got done treating the interior (more on what I do later) and its seasoning for the next 24 hours at least. This will be my frequent use humidor allowing my other one...
