Got my Palio today. Thank you very much on a great price and super easy transaction.

Nubbed a freshie PSD4 on the back deck. I know a lot say that they need a few years nap, but I'm not sure I can hold out that long as it was fantastic.

Tonight I had a 2 yr old Opus Robusto - great flavor, although I was briefly interrupted as I am on-call this week and had to relight it. Fortunately it picked up right where it left off. This past Sat I had an Untold Story. While it wasn't bad, it was way too big for me. Having a spare two...

I just made and drank one.....Very easy and takes about two minutes after simple syrup. First, to make simple syrup, 1 cup of water, boil it and then add 1 cup of sugar. When it dissolves, let it cool. You'll have plenty of it left over so put it in a cup and save it in the fridge. Once you...

With a buddy of mine at work, we each split a box of HDM Petit Robustos and PSD #4.

Had a Casa Fuente Corona Gorda and '06 Anejo #46 (more importantly, no tar from this one) over the w/e. Neither sucked.

Had a Padron Maduro 1926 #9 and a few mojitos while listening to SportsCenter/Celtics pregame. Hopefully the C's play as well as my smoke/drink, because it was a great combo for me tonight. Bob

I too understand that most of you may not have this issue and I am not trying to hijack KayakinBoy's thread. That said I am very fortunate to have my humi constantly filled with ~150 various sized Opus, Anejo, Padron 1926, Casa Fuentes and Hemingway Maduros. The only sticks that I have ever...

The past few months I've been smoked about 8 #46's from '06 and I'd say easily 5 of them have had a tar issue, albeit not as bad as your shark. I have also smoked two sharks within the past few months and yes, tar on both of them. Fortunately for every stick where I have experienced this, it...

After dealing with my 9 yr old's b-day party with 12 pre-teen girls at my house, I needed something good this evening. So I had myself a 6 mo. old WOAM and needless to say, it didn't disappoint.

While at a local wine festival last week, along with a half dozen bottles of wine, I also picked up 23 Opus X #5. Smoked one there fresh, and while it was fresh, it still tasted great. Not a bad afternoon. -Bob

Thank goodness everyone involved was ok, albeit some minor bumps and bruises. I will most certainly be emailing my wife this link as she, and about half the US population it seems, need this type of reminder. Our vehicles are not our offices, backyard decks nor any other social gathering spot...

Found out I am flying to Augusta tomorrow afternoon for a few days. Anyone know the smoking policy in a bar, or for that matter, any good cigar shops there? Thx Bob

All, Thanks for the info - I do appreciate it. Actually my wife and I are getting a few goodies together and UPS it to Disney. A few evening cocktails/cigars at the room while the kids wind down should do us good. Bob

My wife and I are taking our two girls to Disney 1 week from today. We are staying at the Polynesian inside Disney. We've already booked a 'Parent's Night Out' and will be going to Pleasure Island. From a few previous posts, it looks like I'll need to stop into Sosa Cigar. While I certainly...

With yesterday being my birthday, I had a lot of great smokes the past couple of days. Thursday - La Aurora 100 Anos Corona Friday - Padron 1926 Maduro #9 Saturday - FFOX perfecxion #5 Yesterday - Don Carlos 30th Anniversary Robusto From start to finish, the Padron was the best in the bunch...

Happy to walk into the local B&M today... 2 Opus X Robustos 1 Padron '29 #9 Maduro -Bob

Like the previous posters, preference plays an important decision. Just because a cigar is expensive doesn't mean that it needs to be nubbed, hopefuly just enjoyed for time period x. I will also add that since I smoke outdoors, temperature, present company and ambiance (I have outdoor...

Like a lot of others I too, am a huge Padron fan. I lit up a 40th Anni last night and I cannot see how you will be disappointed. It is a phenominal smoke. So, you need to get better and light one of the two up. --Bob

This thread has made me a bit paranoid.....I have 4 sharks, 2 of them from '06. One of those has a little bit of mold on the foot. I have resisted smoking it for a while. After the dreaded mold issue arising once again and the weather being tolerable yesterday, I decided to light that one up...
