Any Cigar smokers here?

I have a major soft spot for rum runners.....don't ask. I just really like the flavor.

Shit Freak....you make it down this way let me know.

Maybe you can be my "source" from now on! We'll devise secret codes and I'll place my order with you by sending you big bills wrapped in typing paper inside a priority envelope. Are you domestic or international? I need cheap prices so I'm hoping your int.! Don't worry I won't give your name out to anyone!

Hey huntmaster! I just reread your first post. Man, I hate to see a guy smoking Swishers! It just cheapens the whole cigar experience in my eyes. Some good cheap cigars that i found have been Royal Jamaica, Te Amo, and.............SHIT brain fart! Can't think of the last one, I'll remember it later.

Like many beginners, I started with and loved Macanudos. They are second to none in construction, but once my pallet developed I just stopped enjoying them. Not enough flavor.

The Opus X is easily the best cigar I've ever smoked. The depth and complexity was absolutely amazing. Plus I felt stoned when I was done. I enjoyed it more than any Cubans I've smoked.

You guys ever go into the cigar shops in places like cancun or puerto vallarta??? i would say they are 90% fakes. I mean, its just unbelievable. Once you know what to look for on the bands is so painfully obvious that they are fakes. I saw a Cuban Hoyo de Monterrey where the red verticle stripes on the band looked like the'd been drawn on with a crayon. www.cigarafficiando.com has a section on fakes that pretty interesting an informative. you can look at fake and real bands side-by-side.

I recently smoked a couple different versions of the C.A.O anniversary addition. I was VERY impressed. There was a box-pressed figurado with a conneticut wrapper that was probably the best cigar I've smoked in over a year. I believe they are from 1998. If you can find one I highly reccomend it.

Two of my favorite cigars are the Padron 1926 #1 Maduro and the Diamond Crown Maduro Pyramid.

Padron makes some killer cigars. I have many Padron maduros in the Annivesario, Millenium and 3 boxes of 1926 in my humidor. YUM YUM

Oh, and the punch Gran Crux maduros rock also....

Cohiba and Macanudo are both great. For a short smoke I enjoy Mini-Partagas. Longer smoke I prefer Arturo Fuente.

Mainly I use my pipe, nothing like some Irish cream flavored tobacco and a nice Guiness the two complement each other perfectly. Also the local smoke shop has a great hazelnut blend.

Cheers,

shit I forgot, you US people cant have access to Cuban cigars, it sucks......

Sure we can. We just have to go to Canada to enjoy them.

So far I'm pretty pleased with Montecristo. The last one I bought was a La Corona Whiff. Good flavor and very smooth. My favorite is still the Montecristo Serie V that I tried about 6 months back. I'm far from being a connoisseur mind you (one cigar a month, if that.)

i order my cigars from thompson cigar company.. they have a very nice, very wide selection and my cigars are always in top condition when i get em... i personally enjoy CAO Anniversary Cameroon's... Cohibas are lovely if u can handle the price tag... and since im in Iraq i do par-take in many of cuban cigars ... i use to be an A. Fuente man.... H. Upmanns are good too... and the simple thompson cigar co. brand are great smokes... . just find a tobacco store in your area that sells individuals ... thats a good way to get one you like or to try out
