Smoking the Padron Serie 1926 right now and it's fantastic...  No problems whatsoever.  Very tasty!!!

Padron Serie 1926 Natural...  Yummy yum yum!!!

LOL...  I am sure the people of Cuba would disagree...

Never smoked on in this box.  I had purchased a fiver pack first.  Decided I liked them and then purchased a box to let it age.  Haven't smoked one in close to a decade, so I wanted to ask if anyone had any recent reviews on them.  That is all.

Very true and I agree. I am just posting the contrapositive to what you and others experience. I am sure there is a lot of good the HRT can do. However, on the flip side of things, it can also do great harm to where the person eventually pays the ultimate price if not managed 100% correctly...

Not sure, just telling you what happened. The testosterone injections weakened his white blood cells to just six single cells. It basically destroyed his immune system. He was getting regular blood tests. However, from what I was told, then never checked his white blood cell count.

Smoked a few and then I age them.  I box many of the cigars I like and age them from time to time.  Foolish to some, maybe.  But the system works for me.

I know a good friend who just died due to Testosterone injections by a doctor. He was taking the injections since 2004 I believe. We just buried him. He was only 68. He also past a month before his only son's wedding. Be careful. It's not worth you life.

That sucks.  So you think the 1926 Serie is going to be unpleasant as well?  This is the first I've had a a cigar, which was aged, turn into a dog rocket...  Hope this is not the case...

Just opened up a box of AF Hemmingway Untold Story Circa 2006.  Never smoked one.  Mostly due to the time it takes to finish the cigar.  It's the same problem I have with the Partagas Salomon.  Amazing cigar, just takes like 3 hours to finish.  Has anyone tried one of these Hemmingway Untold...

If anyone has the room, I definately recommend aging some boxes of cigars.  In 2006, I put away three boxes of Opus X,Shark 77 Anejo, Tatuaje Corona 2003, a few boxes of Cubans, Padron Serie 1926, Padron Serie 1964 and a whole bunch of Hemmingway styles.  I also found a box of those Gurka...

It's hovering around 67F right now.  Changes slightly with the weather in the North East.

Not overly spongy, just slightly spongy.  I've adjusted my Cuban wineador to be a bit cooler at 66% to counter-act the over humidification in the new boxes as they arrived.  Hopefully they will be ready and set for the Spring. :)  Going to let them sleep for a while.  

I wasn't aware that CCs already use another countries tobacco. One would think, as the largest country in the area, they would not have an issue in raising more tobacco.. Anyone know which CCs use non-Cuban tobacco in them?

Any samplers available?  Already have a box of sharks.  Interested in the others.

So, a little birdie has been telling people in the know that the U.S. will, in time, easing up and then eventually removing the embargo against Cuban products.  When this happens, what will happen to cigars made in other countries now that they would have to compete with Cuba in the U.S.?  I am...

Been smoking for a couple decades now. When I first started, I too would buy fivers to try a few out. I also used to get new sticks try out at the shows many moons ago. I usually purchase by the box nowadays. I stick to the brands I know. For NCs, that would be Fuente, Davidoff and Padron...

Hopefully it will not take too long to correct the humidity issue in the cigars.

So I got a few new boxes of CCs in and tried two so far.  Partagas Shorts, Bolivar Petit Corona, Cohiba Magicos Maduro 5, and San Cristobal El Principe.  I've only tried a Partagas Shorts and Bolivar Petit Corona.  To be fair, they were stamped in 2013, so they are pretty new.  The tastes were...

Partagas Shorts..
