    Mini Cubanos

    Montecristo Joyitas / Rafael Gonzalez Cigarittos / Cohiba Panatelas are Laguito No. 3 (5 1/2 X 26) and come in nice boxes, but are long filler and not really value priced like chico's as they are better cigars.

    CAO sold to Henri Wintermans

    They acquired all assets of CAO also I would assume in addition to the name. Did CAO even have their own factories / fields? From my recollection, the majority of their cigars are made by Torano and Perdomo anyways, so I would imagine that it wouldn't change much. I am sure they will expand...

    Haiti

    The constant political and economic instability in haiti also makes it very unattractive for any capital investment. That's one scary nation with a lot emmigrating to the US in the last 20+ yrs to avoid said problems.

    Question about the bands

    That looks more like "354" than anything. If the vendor is reputable, no worries - wierd things sometimes show up in / on boxes of Habanos.

    La Floridita

    I like them - they are a good bundled cigar IMHO for the price. Famous has free shipping on them, so they come out to around $1.25 per cigar. They are on the heavier side of medium and have some sweet & earthy nicaraguan flavor. I really like the maduro & the natrual is also alright. I have...

    Cigar shops in Geneva, Switzerland

    I stopped in and visited Gestocigars & it's nice - however, there is a store just up the road in Nyon on the main drag that is unbelievable. They have an amazing selection of cigars & they guy who owns the store is also the authorized distributor for Opus & Anejo in Europe. When I was in there...

    Tatuaje White-Label (P2?)

    I have bought two boxes from Famous & enjoy them. I find that they closely resemble their full long filler brother, the Tatuaje VI & have a nice leather / graham cracker finish & have a nice sweet aroma. The cuban sandwich filler has never been an issue as they don't flake and the ash holds...

    CI Legends "Yellow Label" by Pepin Garcia

    I haven't liked a single pepin blend from CI as of yet (the obsidian and achilles were both bland and uneventful for a non-weekly special price). I dig 90% of his blends though, so I may be interested in giving one more a shot .

    Armagnac

    I am more of a single malt man in addition to belgian / trappist beers than anything else. But I don't drink single malts with cigars (strange I know). I find that the scotches I like have fine nuances that get drowned out with a good cigar. However, these notes that are harder to pick up I...

    Armagnac

    I enjoy Armangac after going to France also. I think I enjoy them more than Cognac since it has more notes akin to some of the upper region scotches I enjoy as it is not as "fruity". I have a bottle of 15 year old Vieil Armagnac that I am enjoying now that was purchased in Versailles last time...

    Whats Your Latest Puchase

    They have the same strong profile and a lot of the same nuances, but are unique. I like them a lot as they aren't as strong as the machito, but are great after a nap. My most recent purchase was a box of 1495 La Aurora's for $66 - gotta love bid sites. :thumbs:

    Beanie Goodness

    So damn easy to take & email with my q. When I read reviews, I always think crappy pics are better than none - I'm a visual guy (but with bad eyesight looking back at some of my old girlfriends).
