Heya CheapSkate, I managed to rustle up a Signature Collection and post a review. I trade him an Onyx Reserve Toro (one of my current go to cigars) to see what he thinks of those. So two purposes were served in this review. :) My Review

Details Size: 5.75" x 54 Wrapper: Criollo '99 Nicaraguan shade grown Binder: ? Filler: ? Prelight Very firm with a slight springiness. Feels like it should be constructed quite well. Aroma is a pretty straight forward tobacco smell with a slight sweetness. Pretty much smells like a cigar...

Yeah that is a fair assessment of my current thoughts on them. My B&M quite likely has them, but I seldom venture to that side of the humidor. (It's too far from the Fuente side of the humidor :p) I have a friend that got a whole box around October, or was it November, the one I smoked was...

I have had a couple of the Signature Collection. While it's not my favorite smoke, it is certainly not terrible in my book. I found them to have great construction and burn well, I think perfectly but nothing majorly wrong for sure. The flavor I can't quite remember the details of, yet I...

Haven't tried any yet, but with all the positive comments I had to place an order. :D I dig the 5 pound bag option. I seem to burn though 1 pound bag of the junk from the grocery store too quickly. :laugh:

Had my first one last Wednesday. I thoug hit was a nice cigar overall. Even I could pick out the nutty flavor, and now that Bill Clinton points it out they have a leathery flavor as well. (So that's what a "leathery" flavor is... still new to picking out the differing flavor adjectives) If I...

My vote is for Rosemount Estates from Australia. I read somewhere that Australia has the perfect climate / soil for shiraz grapes. I would tend to agree as most Aussie shiraz have been nice. (maybe all of them I've tried can't remember for sure). I however, was not pleased with Rosemount's...

I watched both of them. Both were quality shows about the good stuff. :) I am a little upset they didn't cover brandy/Cognac, but I'll get over it. The show on distilling reminded me I'm running low on Gibson's Finest Rare and that I can always use another bottle of good tequila. Going to...

I would have continued if I could have found a way to not burn my fingers doing it. It still tasted good.... I was torn as to whether I should put it down or not. :cool:

I really like the Aston VSG I had a while ago. It was the robusto size and from light to pitch it held the same great flavor. The burn was flawless all the way down as well. I would say that they are certainly worth the money. I actually smoked that poor thing 'till it bit back. Have to pickup...

Great review on the Dark Sumatra Ginseng! Upon returning to cigar smoking this year, I purchased a sampler box of Dark Sumatras (and a box of Onxy Reserve toros for the curious). The sampler came with two of each size, and while I prefer the one two sizes up I smoked an Esspresso first. My...

For me it was an IBM 8088 with it's blazing fast 8 Mhz processor and 1 or 2 MB of memory (can't remember for sure) and two 5.25 inch floppy drives. A couple years later I got a 10 MB external hard drive. I thought that the 10 meg drive was so cool, becuase I could fit those two or three disk...

I'm actually smoking one right now. It's the Pimiento size (6.5 x 45) and I'm enjoying it. It's not everything I hoped it would be flavor-wise, but it is interesting. The draw is nice and the burn is very even. It's a tad spicy, but not the knock you on your posterior storng as the ads...

I use one once in a while. It does seem to at the very least mask the smell. I wouldn't say it kills the odor, but does make it smell a lot better. As recommended earlier burn it for an hour or two. That being said I will be getting an ionizer in the near future. That with the candle...
