    Today's Smoke II

    Nice Choices. I'm espcially liking the RASCC right now. I just finished a SLR Series A.

    Re-salt test time?

    I salt tested my digitals when I got them 2 years ago and haven't bothered to since. I look at them, but don't watch them all that closely. I use the 65% beads 3 seasons and CI Humicare Crystals in the winter. My cigars are smoking fine and I have never had a mold issue. If they hydrometers...

    la diligencia de M. y G. HABANA?

    Once again poooor puffer proves he's an outstanding BOTL after being attacked by the CigarPass community for no apparent reason that he can think of. Well done sir! I tip my hat to you!

    Romeo Y Julieta No. 3 A/T TEB NOV08

    These don't seem to get a lot of press. I'm about 1/2 way thru an 08 box and was thinking it may be time to reload with winter just around the corner. I agree with your assesment of herbal spice as the primary flavor profile. For the price these are tasty little numbers. Thanks for another...

    I thought Cubans were

    I didn't know UPS prohibits cigar shipments. They must look the other way since a lot of on line vendors use them for shipments. I can see a day when it's illegal to ship any tobacco of any kind. The taxes are a large cash cow that the government wants to milk. That and 3/4 of the adult...

    Buying new tires.

    They weren't bald when I took them off. Like I said I probably could have put another 5K -7.5K on them before they wouldn't be legal any more. Given the medicore performance when new I figured hydroplaning was going to become an issue soon. I found a good price with a rebate on replacements...

    Buying new tires.

    I don't know what kind of driving you do but highway miles tent to be easier on tires as well. Last time I checked on tirerack they wanted around $800 for a set of four Potenzas in my size. I agree when it comes to tires it doesn't pay to cheap out. That being said I'm usually not brand loyal...

    Buying new tires.

    You got 74K out of the Pontenza? My experience with these is the total opposite of yours. They came standard on my Outback. First winter I had the car I used these and even new they were horrible in the snow. Very long stopping distances and just marginal traction to take off. They made me...

    What RH do you prefer

    X2 on the 60-65% RH. I really don't watch it that close anymore and I don't get bent out of shape over small swings. I use the 65% beads for 3 seasons and a 4oz jar of CI humicare crystals in the winter in my humis. The beads soak up excess moisture better and the crystals give off more...

    Today's Smoke II

    I took advantage of the near perfect weather and made it Cuban day. Started with a Diplomaticos #2 and finished off with a RASCC.

    Rocky Patel Vintage 1999 Connecticut

    The regular Connecticut isn't bad for a knock around mild smoke if the price is right. Personally, I like the nutty flavors the Vintage 92 offers. The Decade is good, but I think I like the Edge a little better. I've had the toro and the torp and the toro comes out on top to me.

    Rub one out

    It depends on what I'm smoking, but I usually use one of the recipies on the virtual weber bullet site as a starting point and adjust it depending on my mood or what I have on hand at the time. For pork butts and brisket I usually substitute sugar in the raw for whatever sugar is called for...

    08 Sancho Panza Belicoso...Nooo salt!

    I made an amateur mistake today and smoked one of these from JAN 10. Needless to say it was in it's sick period. I got some of the salty taste with a heaping dose of ammonia. Even worse I could smell the ammonia before I torched it and smoked it anyways. Rookie mistake. On the plus side...

    Whats the best Petit Corona ?

    Just finished my first RASCC. It was 3 days OTT, but the box date was June 07. I should have let them stabilize more, but I just couldn't help myself. That is one good cigar. I'll have to sample a few more, but first impressions are very favorable. Just the right amount of spice with a...

    (Costco) Kingford Competition Charcoal

    I've never ventured away from the regular Kingsford. Seems to burn pretty consistantly from cook to cook and you can pick it up on sale at various times/places throughout the summer.
