I enjoyed a H.Upman "Reserve" paired with 2 fingers of Johnny Walker Green today. Have a great day gentlemen.
I probably enjoy too many different flavors. For a daily taste I like either CAO Gold or Nub 470. Way too many other flavors to mention depending on meal, scotch or bourbon, etc... Just relax and enjoy the moment. :gl:
Yeah, you gave me the bug to buy some... Searching for a decent price...

Foggy, dreary and damp day here. The garage however remains just fine to work on a razor or enjoy a cigar. Put the small propane heater on the tank, relax and watch the weather do whatever it is going to do. A friend stopped by and brought cigars. I had never tried a My Father Le Bijou 1922 but am certainly glad I got to try one. Not a cigar in my price range so it was a real treat.

My cigar smoking season is over...I've tried in the past to enjoy them in the winter however the dry cold air just wreaks absolute havoc on them in the northern part of AB.
This should explain why I haven't updated in quite the long time!
:(
Sad
It is however much nicer to smoke'm on the patio :)
Well, consider this a standing invitation
If you get down this way, get in touch and we'll sample a few :)

Ban on importing Cuban cigars into the US over????
OH wouldn't that be NICE!!!!!!!!!!
Mcbladescar - yardie... this doesn't bode well you you guys! With all the Yanks running to Cuba, the supply is going to dry up quick. If your guys can maintain their orders, great. But prices are going to skyrocket I would think.
No?
It might be bad for Cuban cigars on the whole. They'll increase production, lowering quality, only to be left high and dry with excess capacity when people look elsewhere after the glow is gone.
I could be wrong.
I think you're on the right track there, nicely aged tobacco will run out eventually based on initial demand. The allure of buying Cuban will certainly spike the demand, sales, pricing and inventory. But, Like Pixelfixed said, Dominicans are better anyways :)
That's the story I'm going to be telling in the future anyways :tu
Mike
Hilarious :).
You know - I got to tell you. The old days are gone. People don't expect a "taste" anymore. They experiment.
At one time Cubans was all there was - and that taste really is awesome. But lately everything is changing for me - and for others I believe as well. I know I am actually enjoying some cigars with Mexican tobacco! As the binder leaf anyway lol. I don't always want the same "taste" every cigar anymore.
I guess all said and done - in the end - it'll be good for the end-user.
Honestly I've been liking a lot of Nicaraguan cigars lately :)
Our local tobacconist has some nice custom rolled.

Are Cuban cigars great? Yes!
Are Dominican cigars great? Certainly!
Are Honduran cigars great? You betcha!
Are Nicaraguan cigars great? Most definitely!
Sooooo...Cuban cigars aren't the end all be all? Bingo.
Personally, I'd take DRs and Nicaraguans over Cubans.
As McBladescar said above, there will definitely be a glut of Cuban consumption in the states; and it will last for a while.
Then individuals will start to realize they really weren't missing out on anything. At all.
