    "When we have kids, would you stop smoking cigars?"

    As today is the big day congratulations to both of you. As for the question, I think part if it is also an indirect way of her asking you to quit without doing so, more like a guilty conscience kind of thing. I think many if not most non smoking wives/girlfriends would prefer us to quit but...

    What kind of strength level were you looking for?

    Back online, momentarily

    Rod, for all the hard work you do and everything you did to get back up and running....THANKS! You provide us with a place where we can chat about cigars, ask questions or just pass time without asking for any monetary compensation for your time. I just want to say that your efforts are very...

    What Cuban you will never buy again.

    The La Flor de Cano Predilecto (en tubos) was among the first cigars I ever tried but I couldn't find them anymore. It was great but I had only that lonely one. I thought I'd give other Flor de Canos a try so I picked up a few Selectos....man what a different experience. They were very hard...

    Bolivar Deathmatch!

    Something? I can say I learned a LOT about ISOMs (in general and spotting fakes) in that single post. THANK YOU!

    Forum Skin feedback

    I like the skin the way it is but I'm always up for change as well. Either way, can it be made so that when you float the mouse pointer over the thread title it displays the first 50 or so characters instead of the thread start time?

    Burn length guide

    I find that if I take one puff per minute, the cigar gets too cool and each puff has too little smoke. I find myself puffing a bit more than that and it keeps the cigar nicely lit with ample smoke but not a harsh taste.

    CP Launches CIGAR ACCESSORY STORE

    Very nice! Any chance beads would be coming in the future? (Just to combine orders and get multiple items)

    Beretta Xtrema2

    Wow! That guy's put in a lot of practice time at the range! As for Beretta products, I'm weary now, on the weekend I cracked the slide of my Elite 2 after only 3000-3500 rounds of low power loads. It's a weird crack too, just below the firing pin on the back where the hammer strikes not the...

    Even burn becoming very uneven

    I have noticed something that is kind of odd. I store my cigars at 70%RH so I don't think it's a factor though I don't know enough to rule it out. My lighting process is that I take a butane lighter, hold it under the foot so that the foot doesn't actually touch the flame and start rotating...

    Cigar Reviewing - Take 1

    Sometimes the strangest things happen. I would classify myself as a "non-taster", sometimes people in the same room will ask me if I smell "something" and I usually have to deny it (not because "who smelt it is who dealt it") but actually because I can't smell it at all. Then the strangest...

    Pick a size...

    I'd have to go with the Epi#1 as well unless time was tight. The smaller ring gauge seems to be easier to hold and smoke.

    Question on Aged Cigars

    Also if a tobacconist has 4 boxes of the same cigar that I want to pick up, should I pick the oldest box to get the most "on-site" aging? or it doesn't matter....the cigars don't age in the box anyways.

    Are there any good Cigarillos?

    I've tried the Romeo y Julieta club and they are also strong with minimal flavour. However, I have found that the draw is very easy so I have to smoke them slow and easy otherwise they burn really hot.

    OTB Hygrometer accuracy

    When you first got your hygrometer and did the salt calibration test how accurate was it Out-of-The-Box? I got a simple Radio Shack (Canadians now call it "The Source" - same crappy stuff, just a different name), I did mine and got a reading of 68%. I suspected that I had not added enough...

    LFdC Predilectos

    I'm new to the cigar world so my tastes are quite green but last night I picked up a single La Flor de Cano "Predilectos" in a tube. It's a nice mellow cigar that burned quite well, but now the problem is that I can't seem to acquire an entire box. The place I got it from was a cigar/book...
