Your picks reminded me that I do want to try these. I always liked the crafty looking packaging.

I had my regular AF Exquisito today.

Yesterday I got a box of La Reloba Seleccion Sumatra Torpedo.
Nice cigars with rich taste.

Yesterday was a smoking kinda day here in AZ. Wet and cool.

started off the day with a diamond crown Figardo 6x64. When I say that this is a mild smooth cigar I mean if my eyes were closed I would be hard pressed to say if it were lit! easily over powered by a strong cup of coffee, yet it is a very refined cigar. The flavors are there, but subtle. Lightly sweet and creamy. perfect construction and burn. Not a stick I would normaly smoke, but all in all a good smoke. Would I buy it? no, if i am spending $20 of my hard earned money I am buying somthing in my wheel house. That said it was a good smoke. I am sure alot of people out there would love that stick.

After lunch I had a comacho corojo robusto. May not be big, but it is big in flavor! damn I had forgotton how good corojo can be.... spice leather sweetness and rocket fuel! definately complex and strong, but not overwhelming. A good companion stick.

I smoked a bowel of tastemaster while closing the shop and a part of a bowel of captain cool while cleaning. Then we headed on over to our scottsdale location for our holiday party. Lots of food from Bucca di Beppo, beer and wine...After dinner the boss handed us each a Padron 1964 principe to enjoy. I decided to get the Maduro princip and what a great choice it was. Tons of flavor. Dark coco and fig play off earthy undertones. great ending to a pretty good day!

Oh and we just found out we are having another baby! sooooo time to plan what stick to give out on the big day

Never smoke because you have to...smoke because you love to.... enjoy gentlemen

Hi gents,

Im a complete novice to cigar smoking... in fact any kind of smoking. Ive had these two stored in my drawer for some time and im thinking about giving it a try.

These were given to me a few years ago by a customer who purchased them in Cuba. We got talking and he recommended giving them a try.

Ok totally just posted a very well written and intellegent reply which my computer deleted. If that one pops up again sorry for posting again.

basically your cigars are toast. you can try to revive them with propylene glycol solution on a humidification disc or a jar of xikar crystals in a bag with them until springy again, but they will never be a fresh cuban again.

Padron 2000.

Has the Government made it Legal in the U.S. to buy Cubian Cigars here now There is a New Cigar Store here and a Big sign say Fresh Cubian cigars haven't been able to get there so I decided to here.

not unless the tobacco is pre embargo. More than likely its a first generation Cuban seed tobacco. Several companies advertise like they are real Cubans, but most are not.
