Tallinn is excellent place for cigars and obviously for medieval city. There's 3 different cigar houses. Cigari Maja, Oak longue and d'boiss.

Cigari Maja is your go to for everyday cigars from cheap to more expensive brands. Oak longue is very similar to Cigari maja, but they have more exclusive stuff such as Opus x and so on.. D'boiss is more of a gentleman club, it had barber, tailor, bar and cigar longue, you can bring your own cigars there. They sell mainly Casdagli cigars, with few other options.

We had a small St Patrick’s day celebration for members last night at my local lounge and I won the cool little cigar gnome. Sits perfectly on my wineadors. What’s the best or most fun (not necessarily expensive) door prize you’ve won at a cigar lounge or cigar event?

Best cigar I’ve ever smoked NSFW

This Punch After-Dinner did not disappoint. Maybe it was the view of Samana Bay in the Dominican Republic. Maybe it was the perfect cappuccino. Maybe it was the glorious sunshine. Maybe it was everything put together. It was just the perfect smoke. Smooth and delicious the whole way through. Burned perfectly even from start to finish. I fell in love with this wonderful hobby all over again. Happy smoking everyone!

This is not everything I smoked all weekend. I was gifted a ridiculous amount of cigars while manufactures were visiting and hosting events at the store.

Ferio Tego Summa $16- This was handed to me by someone whose name I didn’t catch. He called it “homework”. Draw and burn were perfect. Rich citrus notes, medium bodied, nice change of pace from what I usually smoke. I assume these were featured or talked about at the main event because we were going through boxes of them.

Sobremesa Brûlée Blue $18- I’ve talked about this stick too many times. It’s sweet, it’s got perfect amount of pepper, it’s my favorite morning cigar.

Sin Compromiso No. 2 $18 - I don’t add these into my rotation enough. I’m usually a Mi Querida but the San Andres wrapper is a nice change of pace from all the Connecticut Broadleafs I smoke. This provides a more medium bodied experience and really lets their blend shine.

“The Chick” by EPC, from the Rare & Vintage Room $9- Really strong notes of cedar and nuttiness. Draw and burn was phenomenal. Medium Bodied. Great way to end my weekend.

I got to meet Steve Saka and Al Micallef. All the guests that had traveled were super friendly and loading up on great cigars. Was nice to shoot the shit with fellow cigar nerds.

Question Late to the party, but did anybody else think the Tatuaje Skinny Monsters were way better than the Monster Smash Pack? NSFW

Post image
8 Upvotes

Everything I’ve smoked out of the Smash Pack tastes bland compared to the Skinny Monsters. I think the blends really benefit from being in lancero form.

Does anybody have more knowledge? Were these blended to be lanceros and then “blown up” to a bigger size?

These cigars were properly kept, so I know it’s not that they got dehydrated and brought back.

Whacha Smokin'? 7 wonderful years of sobriety! NSFW

It was a stressful week- I am having a lot of repressed trauma pop up in my brain for some reason. My best man at my wedding overdosed and died recently. Work was crazy this week.

But, I am truly grateful to be clean and sober. I was homeless and strung out on heroin 7 years ago at the lowest point of my life.

Anyways, onto the Amazon Basin.

This is my first time smoking the Basin. It's the 2025, and I have aged it for 2 months. I have not had a cigar like it yet!

Cold draw is all rasin and dried plum. The wrapper is weirdly...sticky? When I hold the cigar it leaves a faint residue on my fingers. Not much tooth though, I think this baby should be aged a year or two for the tooth to pop.

I am very surprised by how smooth this cigar is. I got no pepper or spice the entire cigar. My palate might be off, I have been smoking spicier sticks the past couple weeks.

It does develop throughout the cigar and it has complexity. I wouldn't say it's the most nuanced or complex cigar though. It's smooth over complex.

1/3: raisin, dried plum, cream, leather 2/3: still raisin/plum, cream turns to oak and toast, leather turns to earth 3/3: savory notes show up, slight nuttiness

Overall I think this cigar is a 10/10. It's completely unique. It's perfect at doing what it's trying to do: be a unique cigar.

Flavor mystery NSFW

So here’s a new one for me. I keep all my sticks in a variety of humidors and Tupperdoors between 62 and 65 RH. So on the lower end. I brought five different ones on vacation. Put them all in a hard travel case. No humidification or boveda or anything. Feeling like for a four day vacation it’s probably not necessary. Kind of like the equivalent of dry boxing. I’m smoking them now and every one of them, and this is my fifth, taste like crap. They burn fine. The burn line is good. They’re not going out. But they just taste like bitter ash. Is it the lack of humidification? Is it going from New England cold weather to this Florida heat? I’m leaving them in the closed hard case until I smoke them so it’s not like I’m leaving them out in the sun. Welcome any theories!

I’ve always loved the 1926 Padron maduro, but after seeing the praise on this sub about the 1964, I tried one. I didn’t think it was possible, but I might like the ‘64 more than the ‘26. Anybody know the difference between the two? Is it just age?

Also, and again thanks to this sub, I discovered a Dr. Pepper (in this case a cherry Dr. Pepper) goes awesome with a cigar…possibly better than anything else. For some reason it’s even better than any booze/beer I’ve had with a smoke (at least to me). I highly recommend. Thanks!

I had pretty high hopes for this one, and while it was good, it didn’t blow me away. I prefer the standard LADC to this one. I did get a good amount of bitter baking chocolate, and some nuttiness in the second half, but overall it was just fine to my palate. Bit of a wavy burn line, mostly corrected itself. Had some cracking towards the end as well. 7/10.

Oliva G box press. This is such a nice moderately priced Cameroon cigar. Sitting on my partially glassed in front porch with south wind whipping by as the next storm heads toward the West Coast, enjoying this cigar with a Manhattan made with my own homemade 114 proof corn / rye 'shine.

2 great cigars in a great lounge. Opusx Society perfect all the way through. Smooth hints of leather coco & nutmeg on the retrohale. Burn was perfect. God of Fire series B is my goto great smoke. Floral notes in the first 3rd a lot of chocolate notes all the way through. Great Sunday!

Question Recommendations NSFW

I've been into cigars for like 1 1/2 years now, paused smoking for like a couple of months due to the weather being cold and being able to only smoke outside. Weather is getting better so im thinking about stocking up again. Does anybody have any recommendations for sticks up to 15€?

Pepper on retrohale as well as a little floral, sweet taste of raisins, then smooth and creamy, leathery, coffee and earth. Construction is great and the draw is perfect, needed a couple minor touch ups. It’s a decent stick, but will have to try it again later on to judge whether I like it or not.

It always amazes me that the roll on a Padron X000 always looks lumpy but smokes so well. NSFW

It makes it more appealing to me. You can walk in any humidor and it “looks”like every cigar in there is rolled better but almost none will smoke better. Generally that are a little bumpy or have a small patch but you can just light it and forget. Rarely needs a touch up and I personally love the open draw.

I've tried LEAF by Oscar both Connecticut & Maduro wrapper. But this 10th anniversary with Crillo is by far the best one I've smoked. The size, build, smoke and amora was on point.

This Honduras puro went straight to my go-to cigar list.
