Opposite coast? I'm in the middle at the bottom.
I figure we had about 100 people total at the herf, and at one point 70 in there at once. It was tremendous fun with the guy playing the guitar and singing, with the rest of us singing along. Much Buffet, Hank Jr., David Alan Coe, Georgia...
Yes sir, that's the Quesada 35th Anniversary. It isn't overpowering nail-you-to-the-wall strong. But it's not mild by any stretch. Manuel Quesada (of MATASA) allowed his daughters, mostly Raquel, do the blend. "The Young Ones" the new generation have done a great job with this cigar. And not...
I love coffee so many ways, but all of it is dependent upon time.
As a snob, to a certain extent, most "grocery store" or pre-ground coffee is stale from the moment you open the bag. If you've ever had fresh roast, you can immediately smell the difference.
I've roasted my own for about five...
Hi guys.
What's the rumpus?
I've been smoking a number of new cigars that I picked up at the International Premium Cigar and Pipe Retailers' Association (IPCPR) trade show last month. In that time I've had a Maxx, a couple Tempus and the SCR from Alec Bradley, all good.
Davidoff 702...
Like it all.
I find Dominicans to feel, "powdery" and somtimes metallic. Don't know why it is, if it's something in the air, or what. I like quite a few brands of Dominican cigar, but still notice this quality with some.
You have to try and get your hands on a Cuban Crafters Cubano Claro.
See CW First Look
Alberto Noguera, from Cuban Crafters, sent me a box for an event we had at my home earlier this month. He sent the Churchills, and they're smooth, easy to smoke, enjoyable. THEN it gets to the band, and...
Sadly, out of doors. I, too, don't want my furniture to soak up the stale odors.
I can not tell you how many times people have commented, positively, how the smell of my cigar releases a flood of fond memories of grandfathers, fathers, uncles and close family friends. It always ends with a...
That Don Ramon in Maduro was actually pretty good. It's a big'n, now, 5x60 or thereabouts. It's a jawbreaker. Lots of smoke, and an ash that held on like a rock.
Cigar Weekly has a few members in your area, good guys. They're trying to reestablish a monthly smoker, called a herf, in SA, again. I'm pretty sure they've been to CH sites, but I think they're shooting for Chango's as their primary venue.
I had a quick, Cuba Aliados Anniversary Short on Saturday. Hope to get something in, tonight. I'm going to try a Don Ramon maduro. This is a brand new brand from New Jersey wholesaler H. J. Bailey.
For about that price, I can get a pound of nice, green beans, and roast them to my liking. I don't have that kind of scratch, as much as I love good coffee, to blow the price of a pound of coffee on one cup.
Thursday night, decided I needed a cigar, one buddy called he wanted to smoke, so we called the other two guys. Brought out a laptop and watched A Righteous Kill under my carport and had our cigars. Enjoyed a La Aurora 1495 series.
Sunday afternoon, working in the garden and tooling around, I...
Belly Tank, you're golden.
KittyT, you too.
I will offer this nugget....keep some of your freshly ground coffee a few days, then compare it to grocery-store coffee. They'll smell the same. I'm sorry to say, that the freshest of pre-ground coffee is stale before you ever cut into the...
Wow. Att-i-TUDE.
Oh, you're SO right. You TOLD us, now didn't you?
I'm going to throw all of my cigars away as soon as I finish typing this post.:eek: since you were so nice to me and you don't appreciate it.
The WHO and the EPA studies on ETS (Environmental Tobacco Smoke) that you, and so...
