:0 No contest! The only Padron I would consider over any Quintero is the '26 at about 10x the price. 156765 Crap, I was trying to see if I could pick up a box at JRCigars... :laugh: Any opinion on the Quientero Y Hermano Nacionales?

I have actually had an Ebayer decline to sell to me because he hates the hassles of shipping things internationally...

I recently had a cigar shipment opened as well, while a subsequent one went unopened. I guess the Homland Security guys like cigars as much as the next guy.

I heard rumors of this "other guy" that smuggles them in stuffed up his "secret" spot "down south". Needless to say he charges a lot for them since he can only handle hiding so many. I believe it boils down to 3 churchills, or 4 coronas. He supposed takes on special orders, but limits ring...

Is it just me, or has Brooke Burke lost her youthful shine? I saw her recently on some informercial, and she didn't look too hot. Not a big deal normally, if it wasn't for the fact that she is famous only for her looks and bod. I think she was recently in Playboy too.

LOL, I know what you mean. Thankfully she is understanding enough to let me indulge in one of life's pleasures. Outdoors of course. :D

I am still trying to keep my wife from making the "I smell somthing stinky" face whenever I light one up, OUTSIDE, I may add. With the windows closed even. :rolleyes:

My budget smoke is the LGC gloria maduro. It's under 2.50 a piece when you get a box. Just had a Padron 4000 the other day, and while its smooth, I found the taste to be a little flat, or maybe just one dimensional. Consuegra #17, which I believe is a Punch Pita, is a good golfing cigar, at...

1/15 @ 1800. Thanks for the contest!

Man, too bad it wasn't video'd. Just thinking of that makes me laugh.

Yup, but you will learn to like it. Not sure if it's an acquired taste, like some other things I can think of...

Also, if your sticks were at a lower humidity for an extended amount of time, they will absorb moisture for a while, and coupled with the aforementioned dry heat and cold-air moisture saturation, you could be adding water for a while until they come up to an acceptable (to you) RH.

MMMMMM ISOM's. They do have a special twang to them don't they? :love:

I am not sure if these are the best, but for "legal" cigars, I use JRcigar for boxes, and recently have been buying singles from DukeCityCigars. They were nice enough to pack them into a wooden cigar box, rather than the normal cardboard ones. They also had a box of Hemingway's that was in...

I thought I was pretty tough until I smoked a LFD double ligero chisel to the nub. I was rolling round in bed with cold sweats and a spinning head a half hour after I pitched the roach into the bushes.

After living there for 13 years, I came to the conclusion that while they make damn good whisky, the national drink is Sake, or Shochu. Sake is made from rice, while shochu is made from a variety of things, from potato to buck wheat. The main difference is that shochu is distilled, while sake...

I love maduros also. The taste on your lips when you puff adds a lot to the experience.

I had similar issues with my shipments, even more since I had them shipped sans box and bands. I figure that if they sent counterfeits, they would not be around for very long.

Hey CC, my sister refers to the aroma as "donkey". I asked her why, and she said it reminds her of the time she rode a donkey at the zoo...at least she doesn't think it smelled like bull....

Gonna try a Hoyo DC tonight. It didn't get good reviews from CC, but hopefully my delightfully novice palate won't know any better :laugh: Have a safe New Year All! Kento
