Finally, the Don Lino Africa's have arrived :rolleyes: ! Yes, this weekend, God willing, I will be enjoying a Tembo size Africa, while drinking a few cold ones. Jim PS My wife cannot understand how a grown man can get so exited about cigars.. not to mention why one would spend over couple...

Yes, I too watch reruns of series I enjoyed much more when I was younger. IMHO, I think we continue to subject ourselves to these “wacky” shows because of the nostalgic high we obtain-- yearning for the days when life was a bit more simple. Also, another factor that contributes this habit is...

Though I have not bought a humidor from overstock I have many times bought various items from them. You will not go wrong as they stand behind their products. Jim

Are you sure they have them in stock? I would call and check as I was told last week that they were all sold out. Again, the new shippment is a couple weeks at a min. out. Jim

The Africa is truly a good smoke! The reason why they are limited is because they only produced a limited number for the show this past spring. I too have been patiently waiting for the full production shipment of this line (as they are hard to find). I contacted Miami Cigar Co (the...

Fox!!!!!!

Thanks for your responses. For the record I was not suggesting that the Padron 1964 was a bad cigar. True, this was only one cigar and to make a judgment based on one cigar would be foolish. However, one must not fault a person for venting because of a cigar that did not deliver for the...

It was the maddie 7x50 (diplomatia). Jim

Well I had my first Padron 1964 over the weekend. IMHO, for the price, I don't think this cigar lives up to all the hype. Though the burn was excellent, the draw was too tight. The flavor was good but not something that stands out. Maybe down the road I will try the 1926 as I hear this is...

Not only that, but I'm sure like everything else that is a hit, the price would go up considerably, to get all the money they could from us Americans. Every bar around and upscale shop would carry the "new" legal Cubans, and would charge a hefty premium. It's easy enough to get them and...

No absolutely not! This summer serves as a monkey wrench on the global warming theory. Though fanatics will try to dismiss it, they are only fooling themselves. Just maybe in 10 or so years many will be saying we are heading for an ice age. Jim

60F! This is perfect cigar weather!!! Why would you not want to smoke outside :D I just smoked a Don Lino on my back patio yesterday with temperatures 55F. Yes I also enjoyed a nice cold beer. I guess when you lived in Wisconsin all your life these temperatures become normal :D Jim

It all depends on what one means by "stronger". I think the confusion is with defintions and classifications. Generally speaking maduro wrappers are always more flavourful and thus to some get classified as "stronger." Now if you would have asked "does maduro wrappers 99% of the time...

My dehumidifyer in my basement is set for 40% and my humidors (yes on the other side of the room) are reading and kept at 68-70%. Jim

My wife will try a puff of the ones I claim are the best..... Yet I get the same reaction everytime-- "Yuck!!! What do you see in these things!"

Too bad the liquor is made in France! :angry: You can have the liqour and I will keep the cigar :D

Good point! A couple of weeks ago a got a box from CBID and one was split and the rest felt very dry.

Buy them up because when they are gone they are gone! I have heard directly from the distributor that the Cupido line will be no longer. By the way... they are great smokes and well worth the money.

I never freeze them. I keep my ingloodor and humidors at about 68%-70% and never had a problem.

One of the creamiest (I too love the cream taste) I have had (I just came across them) is an Honduran Cream. These are bundles with a slightly sweet tip and some say they are medium fill while other say they are long fill. Nevertheless, they are sold as premiums and are, in my opinion, the...
