*****THE OFFICIAL CIGAR THREAD*****

About the only cigars I have ever tied into, other than a few Cuban Cohiba's before a few years ago, were nasty stock. I started flying to Belize every year on vacation and while I was there, I started trying several different varieties and was pleasantly surprised. At this point I have two humidors and several different selections. I still don't smoke that many, but I break one out on Friday nights, or when the boys are over for a beer. Are any of you guys into cigars?

Liga Privadas, especially #9 is VERY strong

3. Usually smoke at the house, on the golf course, or clubhouse.
Smoke mild stuff and thinner ring gauge on golf course. Heavier cigars can hit you and bigger ring gauges unravel with wind and conditions on course.
Heavier cigars after meals


4. Until I get a good feel for what I like, I'd like to stay on the cheaper side. Which I'm not really doing spending $20 a cigar. Lol
Plenty of GREAT cigars from $5-$12 range, mainly in samplers.
I don't buy cigars more than $15 a stick as a rule but from time to time I will buy a Padron that run $18-30. Never Davidoff's or other crazy sticks at $30+


5. I have a small humidor. Similiar to this one.
These can bleed humidity from the seal between glass and wood but good for a start. Buy yourself 70% Boveda packs to control humidity. Also use DISTILLED water if you have a sponge to soak.

Heavier, darker cigars with oily wrappers will hold more moisture and need to be relit often.


Here is a FANTASTIC deal for 5 Cigars of the Year - jump on this. $8 a stick is super.

Thanks for all the info scho. I'll pick up that sampler and give it a go!

The first cigar in the photo, the EP Carrillo Pledge Prequel is strong. Very peppery. 98 rated cigar, one of the highest ever.

Smoke it slow and on a full stomach.

Order of strength IMHO:
1. Oliva V Melanio (my favorite cigar-just ordered 10)
2. EP Carillo Encore, middle cigar (2nd favorite, just ordered 20)
3. Aging Room Quattro Nicragua Maestro (3rd favorite, just ordered 20)
4. Alec Bradley Prensado (just order 10)
5. EP Carrillo Pledge Prequel (have a couple left)

The last two you will likely need to relight multiple times.

Got that sampler ordered. Looking forward to giving them a try. Paid a little extra to have them next week so I can have something to relax with over the holiday weekend.

I bought a 2nd electric humidor exactly like my first NewAir and another 90 cigars. The humidor arrives tomorrow and I will need 2-3 days to condition it and my cigars will be here end of week.

I'll have about 310 cigars and want to have about 425 max on hand aging.
