This is why I've mostly skipped this thread... I'd be posting Tats every month.. just the different year Cojonus alone... Dan, did you ever get your hands on that new Bolivar?

That is interesting. I wonder if @Rod got to the part where the guy said he'd send out free samples. Because he definitely kept his word.. I had mine like 3 days later, and sounds like those who asked got them as well. Unless something bad happened behind the scenes with Rod, I wouldn't mind...

Yeah. I had one last night. I always smoke 2 for a review, and mine were close to ROTT as well. So I'm not gonna give a full review just yet. Gonna try again in 2 weeks at 65%. I will say, I didn't have the resistance issue you had. Was a tad loose, but not soda straw. Only other thing I'll...

You guys should already have, or be getting soon, the sticks from Illyrian Cigars. Ed started a thread about them, so can look there too. This has 72hrs at 65%. Gonna try the first of five.

Ditto. Got several a few days ago. Been resting. Pulled the first one out.. let's see..

That walk-in is just Phase 1.. and part of my patio/oasis remodel for the half year-plus of outdoor smoke time. The basement reno lounge with walk-in starts when I go to the D.R. end of Jan into Feb. Gonna be loud. Gonna have most of it done while gone. This is gonna look very different pretty...

How'd you like that Chad? Esteban's been slept on for too long if you ask me. Had my first in '16, a Covenant, and haven't looked back since. The Chupacabra 10th Anni and original are both great if you haven't yet. 👍

Yeah.. been playing with them.. I like your idea. And the plastic casing.. I'm not crazy about it. Took some more pics after dark... with main light on, then off, then off with just the camera flash, then one of the "blues". Idk. Too.. chintzy looking.. I think that's the word I'm looking for...

So, temp has been holding fairly steady (65°-70°F). Electrical is strong and steady (went with 20A).. with the 6 outlet surge protectors in, I have 12 outlets available to me. Need to finish the center island. Put up some random empty boxes to get a general sense before I start hauling...

Yeah, they're not for the faint of heart. Oliva only started making them in the NUB vitola past couple years... Oliva owns both Cain and NUB, so makes sense. Even just the robusto is one you want to have a full stomach first.. and definitely keep something sugary nearby if too powerful. Here's...

Speaking of Geico commercials of cigars... Gotta love the NFL and Geico getting on the premium cigar train.. along with Jeep. And just the NFL in general... 👍🏈💨💨💨

Try using steel shot or similar. I never have any luck with cousins. 😛

I use one with a thermostat that also can oscillate.. helps knowing it's not just blowing hot air in one place non-stop. Also has a pressure switch on the bottom. If it moves or gets knocked over, it cuts the power. You can also buy WiFi outlets that you can turn it on and off with your phone or...

It is a good selection.. they just don't change much from year to year. It does look however, that they used smaller vitolas this year compared to last year. Must be part of "shrinkflation". Last year's offering:

Apparently it's time for Medicare enrollment... If you haven't watched TV in the past month, you'd never know it. Good grief.. they're right up their with drug commercials and big election political ads. 🙄

The lumpiness is common with them and adds to their charm. In that regard, they're not much different than many people I know and love. Oh, and also my mother's mashed potatoes... as I was just reminded of yesterday!

Hi. Why don't you post an introduction of yourself in the new members area. This thread seems to attract a lot of spammers over the years.. and that couldn't possibly be you. Be sure and let us know what cigars you've been enjoying lately in addition to video games while you're there. Thanks.

Thanks to you for keeping it going. I know you've had opportunities to sell, but have kept it "in-house" and endured the expense and hassles at times. I know we are ALL thankful for that. 23 more years!! 👍🥳

¿¿ʎʅǝʇɐʅ uʍop ǝpᴉsdn ʻʅʅǝʍ ..ǝʅʇʇᴉʅ ɐ ɯǝǝs pʅɹoʍ ǝɥʇ sǝoᗡ Well, fear not my friends.. for today is Thanksgiving.. and truly a good time to remind ourselves what it is we're thankful for. Who would like to share one.. or more, things you're thankful for this year. I'll allow others to start...
