I like whisk(e)y of all regions, but as AVB said, it would be hard to find a bridge between bourbon and Scotch. They're just too different animals. Some even argue that we shouldn't even be calling them both whisk(e)y, since one's corn-based and the other malt-based, also differences in yeast...
That link Mike posted is a very good reference of all current, discontinued, and special release cigar from Cuba.
Welcome to CP...don't take any crap you get here personally. We can sometimes be a little rough with newbies, but its only because we've all seen plenty of scammers, con-men, and...
Raul really wants to cozy up to the US, and Obama might be open to the idea of repealing the embargo.
Personally, I believe if it weren't for the large portion of fiercely anti-Castro Cuban exiles in a certain key swing state, the embargo would've ended in the 70's.
I've long been of the...
None of my locals carry them, unfortunately. I had the pyramid size once and that it was an excellent cigar, especially for the price.
Anyone know who makes these?

I'll add to the pile and say that I've never had a problem travelling with smokes, and mine are usually in my carry-on luggage. Being a tech consultant, I travel frequently to places as diverse as NYC, Vermont, DC, and Atlanta.
Only thing I ever got taken from me was a butane torch lighter (it...

Montreal is an awesome city! I'm sure you'll love it.
IMHO, the best steakhouse in town has to be: Gibby's! (LINK) Unfortunately, can't smoke there, but trust me, you will not leave there hungry!
The LCDH and Stogies aren't too far from each other...the Montreal Museum of Fine Art is on...
