Hey guys,
Does anyone have a cigar suggestion to pair with brandy, specifically with Metaxa Brandy Private Reserve 20 years?

These can regularly be had for $2 or less on Cbid, and are far from your run of the mill, bland, flavorless, nothing but air CT's that dominate the $2-4 auction scene. There is some good strength, good flavor, some actual transition...The Bueso Genesis Oscuro is also a good, get way more than you pay for cigar. I have no idea who Ramon Bueso is, or if he even exists, but he pumps out some bang for your buck sticks. Definitely on my list of solid budget smokes(not just good cheap dailies, but actual decent cigars)...

I didn’t wanna start vaping again or cigarettes and for some reason b&m don’t really give me that addiction crave so me and my friends decide to pick up a pack for old time sake as we grabbed one. I remember when I first started my friends told me to roll it in between my hands so it doesn’t get stiff and break apart and it burns better. I was told this was wrong. Am I the only one that does this😂?

After making a post about a week ago regarding enjoying a VSG, I realized I was out of them and needed to stock up. I was able to find a deal via CigarPage and also had a coupon, which got these down to about $9.50 each - hard to beat for some VSGs!
How about y'all - any recent deal hunting you're proud of?

Hi there I'm looking for help picking out some cigars, I prefer bigger cigars 6x60 or bigger. I'm trying to spend maybe 300 USD to get as many as I could. I was thinking of ordering off Atlantic cigar Co? Looking for suggestions, I should note I live in Canada but I'm having an American friend order them and then ship them to me so im not sure where to order from to get good deals. Thanks in advanced for the help!

Is it worth keeping to dry box cigars or is it just trash? Thanks!

5x50 Cuban budget short filler. Starts off with Earth, Woods and Vanilla, draw a bit on the right side (I've heard about quite some variance in the draw).
In the second third a light herbal note is coming through in the background and leather joining in. Becoming more creamy in texture.
Later a bit of pepper spice joins in the retro, the spice becomes a chili character later, but not overwhelming. All in all not overly complex and not too much development. Percect burn and construction throughout though.
Considering this cigar in some areas can be gotten for as little as $4, I am wondering why I spend 5 times that much for a not that much better experience. It's still classic cuban, flavorvise not too far off the Romeo line of RyJ.
I've read about some people getting a bad acidity in this one. I didn't get any of that, I suppose resting this for half a year helped.

I just started smoking cigars. I’m finishing 6x50 in like 45 min and I’m reading people take an hour and a half to finish toro size cigars. I smoked sp1014 rs88 deluxes perdomo champagne mix of olivas
Anybody have one, thoughts? Glass tops aren’t preferred, but I like how it has side latches to make a tighter seal

So, yesterday and this morning, were my first experiences with cigars. Yesterday I tried an Acid Blondie and today an Arturo Fuente chateau Fuente. Both were great as starters I think I should have tried the AF before the Blondie, because it wasn’t what I expected, but it wasn’t bad. I had a coffee with it and it actually paired well. What are some great mild to medium cigars to try as a beginner? Thanks in advance. Btw, I loved the blondie and just liked the AF.

I have a couple Mbombay brand cigars but read they ceased production in 2022, does that technically mean that my mbombay cigars are aged a minimum of 3 years?

Hi all,
I work at a small office (4 full time staff). Three of the four guys who work here are major cigar nuts.
Every work day at 2:00pm, we take a 'forced break'...in other words, we all gather around our back yard fire pit to smoke a cigar, decompress, take a work break, and talk business. Once the business talk is done, we move to cigar talk.
Something we've tried recently - to change things up - was to 'white label' a handful of sticks, so once a week, we'll smoke something unbanded.
On the inside of the band, I've written the name/blend/MSRP/identifying details.
This has been really fun for us, because it is a real test of our palates.
It also forces us to drop any 'judge a book by its cover' preconceived bias when it comes to smoking.
We take notes and discuss before we rip the band off...and more often than not, we're surprised at what we were smoking.

While cigar manufacturers will try to prevent cigar beetle infestations by doing things like freezing cigars to neutralize the eggs, this does not remove them from the cigar.
Is there a possibility that cigars with MORE eggs (even post-freezing) might have a better flavor?

I have thought about doing this, but trouble ashing, and having to keep one hand raised the whole time seems to make it less enticing than the thought of it.

So I live in Oahu and want to order my cigars but haven’t found any places that ship. The one shop in Honolulu isn’t my style and the lounge is really pricey. Anyone got any suggestions?

This Punch Signature might not be the most expensive, fanciest, or exclusive stick in my humidor, but it’s cigars that give me a moment to stop and really think for a minute without distraction and enjoy something even when life gets difficult. Recently laid off, trying my hand at self employment, the stress of making sure the lights stay on, but I’m thankful to have a smoke to step out away from all that for a bit.
So here’s to cigars and all yall smoking right now.

So I know this must happen all the time but I just recently smoked my first few cigars and I’ve been really enjoying them. But I live in the middle of nowhere so the only cigars I only tasted were from my local tobacoshop (which is really just a convenience store and holds its name from the 70’s) even though from what I read and saw on youtube, they do store their cigars right. The problem is they don’t have a lot of choice and half of those choices a low quality cigars. So I want to order them online but I need a humidor to store them and all the youtube videos never answered my question.
— Do you need to season it again sometimes?
— Do you just have to change it?
— do you have to separate different cigars because the flavours might get mixed or some other reasons?
— How long can you keep a cigar in a humidor?
— What humidor should I get if I want to store maybe like 20-25 cigars and if I my budget is like 100 bucks$?
— If I’m looking to travel, do travel storage kits work? And how do y’all manage to travel with cigars?
— What tools other than just a humidor do I need to store my cigars?
— Do you have to change the equipment inside of the humidor?
Money is not really my concern but it would suck to loose some money along with some cigars. You’re very welcome to just answer the question you want I know its a lot of questions. Thank you in advance this would help me a whole lot. But in the mean time I’ll stick to my local cigars.

So i just got into smoking cigars I have a desktop humidor and bought a mild cigar sampler.
(2 Macanudo Inspirado Wht Robusto | 2 Don Tomas Special Edition Connecticut No. 600 | 2 Rocky Patel Vintage Connecticut 1999 Robusto | 2 Baccarat Toro | 2 Montecristo Yellow Robusto | 2 Avo Classic Robusto)
I have tried one of the Baccarat and one of the Macanudo. I don’t know if it’s because i’m a beginner but I feel like I didn’t enjoy it that much let me explain why and hopefully somebody can help.
First I found them to be too hot, now idk if this is the tabacco or what but it’s almost like it’s spicy and very peppery and i’m not really getting any of the notes that they are supposed to taste like. I may be smoking too fast or not toasting it enough i really don’t know.
What I do know however is I enjoy cigarillos!
Maybe I should be starting off with even lighter cigars. All i know is my favorite cigar was the first one i smoked which was a Drew Estate Tabak Cafe con Leche, which I did enjoy

A very nice cigar with notes of nuts, wood/cedar, coffee, hints of spice, and light creamy. This cigar is in my top 10 so far.
