Hey CP Feel odd posting in an introduction section as I actually became a member of CP over 4 years ago. After a couple brushes with the crazy life, a move and the all to common financial crisis I have slowly gotten back in to my old hobby of reading about, and enjoying cigars. So of...

Hello all, Below are some pictures of a cigar box/humidor that was given to me by a good friend of mine before he left town. I have only had it for a couple of weeks and just recently turned it into a humi. It nows holds the contents of a recent trade I did with a fellow BOTL here on the...

Today was a good day I opened my humi for a way to end it right and staring me in the face was a Feunte Feunte Opus X. I decided it was finally time to lay fire to this most hallowed of cigars. As I sat down outside to light it I started thinking technically about the cigar. I then decided...

These cigars combine two things I live for, the Torano family and CHeaply priced cigars. That Vueltabajo line is of course rolled by the Torana factory and comes in right around 2.50 - 3.00 per stick. At the moment a box runs about 50 bucks. The smokes are amazing every time and I am always...

Hey all So as it turns out I got a job interview for a call center down in Allentown PA this week. While there I HAD to stop off at Famous for a sniff around. Man what a great place that is. The guy working there was really great and walked around and talked shop with me. After...

Well a friend of mine came to work today with a Padron in tote for me. I have not been smoking cigars for too long and the Padron line was simply one I have not had the chance to try This cigar was awesome. So well built and constructed it was consistent the whole way through. I now can not...

OK so I took the 2.5 hour trip to Erie, PA today to visit Tobbaco Land. A shop in the Millcreek Mall and the nearest shop I can get to that does not get hit with NY state tax. While there the tobbacoist tells me I should try the newest cigar on the shelf the Don Lino Africa. Since he is a...

Well after a few well placed bids on Cigar bid and the generosity of a few of you BOLTs I now have what I like to call my Top shelf humidor. I thought I would post a pic :love: and show it off a bit. Special thanks to he who provided the three Opus X (check out the size on that belecoso!)...

Hola So I have this friend (no really this is not a story about an obscure rash so it really is a friend) who goes through the same process every time he gets cigars. Fridge for a day, freezer for 4, fridge for 2, into his 'dor. He swears by this method to destoy any beetle infestation...

Hey all, Just got done smoking this and it was great. however the draw was really hard. I do not have any more so I can not compair it to others so I thought I would ask if any of you had experienced the same thing. I really like the flavor and would like to buy more if this was just a fluke.

Hello guys happy 4th of July! Hope you all are enjoying some good smokes and a BBQ.

Hey everyone God it has been forever since I posted here. Lets see what has happened. I got married about 2 weeks ago, the month and a half prior to the wedding was sheer friggin chaos. She actually showed up though so everything went off without a hitch ;). I also started college again, in...

So I thought I would check ebay to see what they have going and came across this estate pipe. I was hoping someone could take a look at it and let m eknow if it would be a good first pipe buy. I like the style and looks of it and think it would be fine. The auction ends shortly so any quick...

Hey all I have always been intrigued with smoking pipe and I love the variety of choice. However I know nothing about it at all, how much is a good pipe and where should I go for one? Any info would be awesome really as I think I may pick some up.

Hey all Just a thank you to Steve who set me up with a great package from my wishlist plus a couple more to try that I am unfamiliar with. Most appreciated Steve, thank you. I must say this community has been great, if ther eis a better one on the net I certainly have never found it.

Got a small well wrapped package in the mail today. I suspected something was amiss but had no idea what I was in for. Carefully I unwraped the item upon looking at the box my heart sank. For wrapped inside was a box for an Adelphia HSI self install kit. My heart skipped a beat...I work for...

So my fiance gets a new puppy...a real pee machine if you know what I mean. The thing is cute as heck but I thought tonight I would put it in it bedtime crate while I enjoyed a Rare Corojo (great cigar). Anyway she got home from work and says "hey how long has the dog been locked up?" I in...
