THE cigar thread

[brianc636]

Since we have a bourbon thread, I figured I’d start a cigar thread since they kinda go together.

Today I had some Jefferson Ocean 17 cask strength and a Las Calaveras 2019 from crowned heads. Amazing!

And I washed the wife’s car and my truck. Boy is at bio-dads this week.

When I went to NYC in December I stopped in Nat Sherman for a cigar. Impressive place but I really like Holt’s in Philadelphia. I used to go there regularly when I was in college.

Right now I just have some assorted Padrons, Ashtons, Montecristos, and Fuentes aging since I don’t smoke that often.

I always save my cigar bands and place them in little clear boxes. I have three of these boxes filled up since I started smoking. One day I may make a collage of them.

A guy over on Brother of the Leaf forum did that then framed it. Looked pretty sweet.

I’ll see if I can find a picture of it.

I understand it was a pastime back in the 1800s

I just found the collage on BOTL. That was sweet!

Here is an example of a collage from the 1800s I saw one like this in a museum:

Love a good cigar. Enjoyed an Ashton VSG this morning.

I’m looking forward to having an Ashton VSG some time again.

Had a CAO Brazilia today. Was a bit on the stronger side of what I typically like but was very nice.

I like Cuban cigars. I feel like the godfather of a movie when I smoke them.

I wish we could get Cubans here.

Nice. The only time I was able to have a Cuban Cohiba was when I was overseas too.

You’re not trying hard enough. Lots of vendors will ship Cubans into the us and guarantee delivery or they’ll reship them to you.

I guess I have to find some website that does that. I almost never buy cigars online.

This is true. Also a lot of brick and mortar stores outside of the US will ship. I still order from one of the shops I visited in Ireland. But as of late I’ve really been enjoying the Padron 1964’s. Never, ever had a burn or draw issue.

The “poor man’s” Padrons are half decent too although I smoke more Fuentes than Padrons on the occasions that I do smoke.

My meditation locker

I to enjoy Fuente smokes.
