    Gurkha 1950 Pre-Embargo

    I searched every forum, for every date, and only found these metioned in wishlists. Has anyone tried them? Are they worth the big $$$ they usually fetch on cbid? The description ( http://www.cigarbid.com/auction/lot.cfm?lotID=160580 ) has my mouth watering, but it's a big commitment to shell...

    What do you smoke. . .

    First off, with the Cold War over, I think the Embargo needs to go. It has outlived its usefulness. But, for as long as it remains. . . no I can’t find any contradiction in prohibiting Americans from purchasing Cuban goods everywhere except in Cuba. Seems perfectly logical. You go anywhere in...

    What do you smoke. . .

    Thanks for the good info, But. . . I did some additional research and learned a few things that I had not known before. Turns out, the embargo not only prohibits us Americans from bringing Cuban goods into the country, it also prohibits us from even purchacing them in another country (even if...

    Montecristo Afrique

    You really liked it that much!!?? I had one (and only one) of these. I know one cigar is not enough to condem or praise. But, I tried the Kilimangaro (SP?) I thought it was good. Beutiful constrructiuon, nice burn, perfectly easy draw, but it was just too darn one-dimensional. All I tasted was...

    What do you smoke. . .

    Let's say you're taking a trip overseas next month. Let's say the UK. What ISOM would you smoke, and what would be a reasonable price to pay for it. These suggestions have to be sticks that are good right off the shelf!!!!!! I'm not bringing a single one back with me to "age in the coolerdor", I...

    opinion on puros indios cigars

    Personally, I love PIs. Factoring price into my overall rating, they were my absolute favorite back when JR carried them (JR had them for less than half what anyplace else ever sold them for). But, once JR dropped them, I dropped them. They are terrific for $2-3 (I like every size), but for $5-6...

    Would you bitch. . .

    You have to be in my shoes before you answer this one. Got an order from cbid today. One item was billed as "all star sampler". It had a bunch of junk but 3 good sticks. PI Toro (hey, I like them, and I said you have to be in my shoes to answer this one, so for now you like PIs too!), Gurka...

    How big is your ash?

    Try this next time you want to draw stares at the cigar bar. Clip a straight piece of clothes hangar (or use any straight stiff wire) slide it right down the center of your cigar (don’t do it to a good one, this is just for laughs). Then light-up and watch the crowd gather to marvel at your 6...

    Spots on Cigars. . .

    Received box of Montecruz Negara Cubanas from JR yesterday. More than half have white spots on them. (No it's not bloom, the spots are way too concentrated and sporadically distributed). (No, I don’t think it’s mold. mold is usually “fuzzy” and a dull gray/white, whereas these are bright white)...

    Rumors of Castro's death sweep Miami-Dade

    I'm not certain, but I don't think we'll get our hands on "the good stuff" anytime soon. First the commie has to die, then the embargo has to be lifted, then the non-cuban labels will file trademark infringement suits to block importation of the similarly named cubans. Then there has to be 2 or...

    New to the Board

    No, No, No, let me explain. . . The registration form asked for a user name, and I couldn't think of anything better. I just started law school last fall and legal briefs are all I think about morning, noon, and. . . (well at night I think about cigars). So That's the best I could do as far as...

    Puros Indios Presidente Blowout

    OK, here's my question (probably a dumb one, but check out my intro in the lobby, I'm just a FNG). I've smoked the PI plenty (but haven't had any since JR and Mr. PI apparently had some kind of falling out and JR stopped carrying them). So I was thrilled when this deal appeared! I bought a box...

    New to the Board

    Hi, I'm brand new to the board and just thought I'd take a second to introduce myself. I've been reading annon for sometime and had to "work up the guts" to join. I mean, I've been smoking for 8yrs and in my circles I am the cigar expert. But, then I start reading this site, and talk about...
