this is all... I return you to your regularly scheduled discussion about cigars

[vee]

I used to smoke a cigar from time to time back when we had a shop in town....BACCARATS (not sure of the spelling) are Excellent and my all time fav., and from what your saying you'd like in a cigar it may be right up your alley. And if ya don't like it you only lose out on like 4 or 5 bucks.

Anyone who wants cigars my Dad has been a tabacconist for 25 years, and he can easily beat places like holts.com prices

I've only had Monte Cristo and Romeo Y Julieta. They werer both pretty good.

I'll second that and toss another suggestion in. H Uppmans are really good, if you like a long slow smoke, if you go with a Monte Cristo, I suggest the platniums. Or for a sweeter smoke you may want to try the La Divas conac cured cigars, not overly powerful, but not too mild either. The ones I listed above are are anywhere from 6 to 8 per smoke. So if price may be a concern Flor De Olivia makes a very nice in expensive cigar for about 2 bucks a stick, and one of my personal inexpensive favorites is National. It's a Cuban seed tobacco with a Connecuit wrapper that really has a good flavor to it for about the same price that suprised me. It's also very smooth and consistent through out which is hard to find in a cigar for under $4.
Anyway welcome to the fine world cigars, and keep a few things in mind when smoking:
1) the hotter and faster you light the cigar the better it's going to smoke for your
2) use a high quality lighter and fluid so you don't get a nasty aftertaste
3) bigger the cut off the tip, the easier the draw
Most importantly
4) be considerate of others who may not appreciate the aroma of a good cigar.

I really don't want to sound like a jerk here, but python, why would your dad buy you cigars? I've always been told not to smoke and the same goes for all my friends. It's just weird to me to hear that someone's parents bought them cigars after graduation. Probably just different culters/traditions.

It's not that strange....In fact on my 21st birthday my parents took me to a bar - got drunk, then off to a casino - bought me birthday shots, few beers, then lost my money, then to another bar - got a few pitchers and ate some wings.

it was great

I like CUESTA REY Captivas and Aristocrats and these things I picked up in Mexico,Bolivar, they are made on some small island country just past the Fl. Keys. There are those Iguanas by the Thompson cigar co. they got a web site.

- bringing this back up
how much do that fuentes black labels run at?
I had a helix the other night and a macbeth green label something or other tonight.
Helix burns real long and pretty hot and its real strong.
the one i had tonight was great at the end.

.. i love those things

[edweird]

black ringed fuentes range in price depending on size shape and line. Oh and highly dependant on the store ya go though. But expect 4 to 8 a stick retail easy.

[TecnoRobo]

yah i figured that, not bad since i spent 6 on the macbeth stick tonight.
i hear a lot of good things about em.
