theredtamasrule Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 Last week I smoked a Cuban Cohiba that my wife snagged at an estate sale. It was my first ever Cuban cigar...just wonderful, smooth, cool, great all the way around. There were 2 of them and both were top notch. Tonight as a gift to myself I am trying a cigar that was made for a tobbaconist here in Louisville by a small shop in Miami, can't wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doubled_mystic Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 using the very nice weather today as an excuse to have a Rocky Patel R4 double corona, might as well enjoy a big cigar while it's not freezing out, and this one is excellent, highly recommend if you can find them.

doubled_mystic Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 been smoking a ton of the local shop's hand rolleds as of late, and loving every puff on those sumatra wrapped goodies. Also been smoking a lot of Rocky Patel Nordings, which I highly recommend to anyone who likes a full bodied, slightly spicy, power smoke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good,bad,andrush Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 Is there a difference in terms of how addicting smoking is when it comes to cigars and cigarettes? My grandpa smokes a cigar now and then but he used to be a heavy cigarette smoker. If smoked both before but just to try it. I am thinking of smoking cigars later but I really don't like cigarettes for some reason...is that unusual? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janie Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 This is something I've always wanted to do just... cuz. I want to experience it. The thing is, no other girlfriends are crazy about trying this and I feel weird lighting up alone. The husband flat out refuses. Would it be weird if I purchased just one cigar from a nice cigar shop? Can you purchase just one? I'm feeling like I want to do this, this weekend. To hell with everyone else.

Dobner has assumed control Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 I'll tell you what, one of the best smokes I've had was the Rocky Patel "The Edge". It is usually around $6.25 but man it smokes, and taste better than many of the $9 or $10 cigars I've smoke. It is definitely worth a try. Also if you like something a little different, NUB cigars, especially the 466 Habano, are pretty good. They seem like they wouldn't be worth the money because they are about 3.5 inches long but they burn for at least an hour. The habano is a little spicier but nothing over-powering.

Dobner has assumed control Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 QUOTE (doubled_mystic @ Jun 26 2009, 11:29 PM) just finished one of my all time favorites, Camacho Triple Maduro. A beautiful, oily maduro wrapper, hugging, you guessed it, lots and lots of maduro goodness inside. A very full bodied smoke, with ample spice from the pre-light draw all the way through the slow burn. A hint of cacao at the toasty conclusion, just an absolutely amazing cigar. I highly, highly recommend it to anyone that likes their cigars big and bold and full bodied. And it goes excellently with a good single malt or bourbon....... Thanks for the recommendation, so far the strongest cigar I've had was the Series O by Oliva (nice maduro wrapper). The cacao finish seems interesting and quite tasty. Is the strength of this cigar on par with say, triple ligero cigars? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dobner has assumed control Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 Two days ago I had a Prodomo 10th Anniversary Criollo, and it was pretty good cigar. Overall it was a more mild smoke, but at times there was a spice because of the Criollo. http://www.stogieboys.com/images/Perdomo_Reserve_10th_Anniversary_Criollo.__78185.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dobner has assumed control Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 QUOTE (PuppetKing2112 @ May 14 2008, 07:58 PM) I had my first experience with a cigar about a week and a half ago when I was in Washington DC. Don't remember the brand, but it was about $11 and I know it was Venezuelan and full-bodied and I bought it at Union Station. It's probably either an acquired taste or I wasn't doing it right, but I was kind of underwhelmed. It's probably because it was full-bodied, you probably should have started with something milder. I'd try one more cigar, a mild one, before you make your final judgement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
