    Can diet affect cigar taste? I beleive so

    In addition to my passion for cigars, I also enjoy working out and for the past couple of years I have been following a very strict nutrional plan. I either follow a bulk type diet where my nutrional macros include carbs, protiens and fats or a ketogenic diet which contains very limited amounts...

    The past year....

    has not been the most fun in terms of my professional life. The economy hit me hard but our business managed to survive and is now starting to profit again. I know money is not everything, but with a family to support, it took a huge toll. Well, all is much better now and I look forward to...

    Why is this 9 month old sealed box too wet?

    I opened my last box of Oliva V Maduro (no wrap on these boxes) and the cigars inside were pretty wet (spongy to touch) and I'm trying to figure out what could be the cause. This box was located at the bottom of my Aristocrat Mini and have been in there for 8-9 months. I had a couple of boxes on...

    Saw a B&M with red aromatic cedar on its walls

    I was visiting my dad in Franklin, Tennessee this weekend and we needed to stop for beer and I noticed the b&m also had cigars. I walked into the humidor and was immediatley struck with this strong scent of cedar - same as the smeel in ceadr chests. :0 I looked at the walls and saw the familiar...

    R&J 5 Short Churchills, look fake

    My neighbor (again) dropped off some "cuban" cigars in a box as he doesn't smoke and knew I enjoyed cigars. They are R&J Short Churchills (non-tubed) in a box labeld "5 Short Churchills." I don't know if they make them in a 5 pack but these cigars look very suspect to me. I'm no expert but...

    Early Xmas Gift - Patio Heater

    I've been wanting one of these for a while and one came up on sale at Home Depot for nearly half off. The wife said "there's your Christmas present." 40,000 BTU: Tried it out the other night when the outside temp was 32F. Tried to measure the temp with the heater on and sitting down a couple...

    Many Thanks Mr. Hawk

    Although I didn't win according to his challenge found here: Guessing Numbers Steve was very kind and sent me a great "consolation" prize for my guess; what an awesome surprise! Thanks man, but I knew it was coming :laugh:

    2 year old Anejo was fantastic, but

    Smoked another Shark from '05 and it was awesome. Compared to those having only 1 year of age, it mellowed out some more with less sweetness and a little less kick to it which seemed just right to me. I know it's subjective, but what are others' experiences with more age on them? Does it...

    My contest win from AVB has me thinking...

    Okay, I'm not drunk I swear but I wonder if anyone out there believes that you can predict or influence the outcome of an event. I beleive it is possible and the way it happens for me, in the case of the contest, is that a number just appears in my mind an it just feels right. Focusing the mind...

    A funny cigar quote from my son

    So, I happen to be looking at the latest cigar girl and didn't notice my 9 year old son looking over my shoulder. Didn't know what to say, so the first thing out of my mouth was "What do you think about girls smoking cigars" First he says it's gross because he thinks smoking is terrible but then...

    Padilla Signature 1932 Corona Gorda?

    I won a 5 pack of these from c-bid but I can't find any reference for this size. The cigars measure 5.6" x 46 ring. I've only had a lancero before so I was looking to try some others. Anyone know anything about this size? -Larry

    Do I need to fill aluminum humidifier when I first get it?

    Just received the Heartfelt Aluminum humidifier and was wondering if I need to fill with distilled water upon arrival? Instructions say it's preconditioned and ready to go but I wasn't sure if that meant it was filled already. Thanks, Larry
