I've gone through an entire box of these that I bought from them earlier this year and just finished my last one today. I really enjoy them as a kind of everyday go to smoke - an earthy slightly spicy taste with a touch of sweetness. Each one has tasted the same. I did have an inconsistent burn...

Yeah but I think it's because shifting is a little trickier with a cigar in hand :p Besides, if I drive too spirited, I wind up crushing the cigar in my hand between the steering wheel. I love having a smoke in the car on the way home. Makes me forget about the work day.

Yep, nice deal. Thanks Ian, just sent my order in! Looking forward to trying my first 40th.

Just in time as I ran out this weekend. Thanks Jerry!

Passed around a few '64 Padron Exclusivo Maduros with friends at the US Open practice round yesterday. This setting made me enjoy them even more.

Great review! Do you know what kind of age it had on it?

Yep. Not sure what your diet is during the day but make sure you are consuming enough so you are not too hungry at night. If you are looking to gain mass enough carbs is as important as protien intake. I drink protien shakes at night as a snack when I'm hungry. Or, some low fat cottage cheese...

Funny, I seem to spend every day this year realizing since I'll be hitting 40 at the end of the year. So, if you don't mind me asking which is harder, 40 or 50 or at a certain point does it not matter any more? :laugh:

All this rain has got me yearning for a smoke outside now that the summer weather is approaching. It was making me reflect on my favorite setting for smoking. Of course there are lots, but here is one of my favs: - Any decent cigar - Wife is out of the house - Kids sleeping - Sitting outside on...

Chateau Fuente SG and while the flavor was good, the burn was terrible from the beginning. It was like one side of the entire length of the cigar was much harder and it burned with a black ash while the rest was a dark gray.

Yes, I have noticed the number of comments and being one who has raised an issue about potentially fake cohibas, seeing these made me more comfortable in sharing my own story and has helped me learn more about cigars. Of course, I'm coming from the newbie side as it realtes to ISOMs and as long...

I wish I had a pic of the cigars but the length of the cigar is 6 7/8. Does that even seem right if it was a Cohiba pyramid.

Thanks but the good thing is I didn't have to pay anything for them. I still have to tell my friends they are fake.

Didn't the old band design have COHIBA in black lettering? Like the picture here: http://www.habanos.com/habanos.asp

Okay, I don't have pics of the cigar, but here is the label (on the top) compared to another Cohiba which I got from another friend (below) over the summer. Seems like all my friends are giving me fake Cohibas. :angry: In the top band the words are centered vertically. I thought they were...

Hmm, got home and took a closer look. There are only 2 rows of dots above the work Cohiba and the cigar measures 7 inches.

Ah, yes it does look like the cigar from that set. Has anyone tried these? Looking forward to smoking it. This won't get me addicted to ISOMs, will it :p Thanks for the help and sorry if it was obvious.

I really don't much expereince with Cohibas but a friend of mine gave me a couple of Cohibas this weekend and I was trying to find some info on them but couldn't. They are a pyramid shape with only the old Cohiba logo and the coloring of the cigar is light, not dark like the EL versions. I...

Hard to tell as it was dark out but it seemed solid gray and held on really well.

My first noob cigar review: Shape: Figurado Size: 4 7/8 x 60 Country: Dominican Republic Strength: Medium My Rating: 91 Do you ever have an obsessive thought throughtout the day (or maybe everyday) you can't get rid of. Got home last night to my first package of Killer Beans coffee (btw it's...
