Just a few months ago, I was here asking for suggestions for a "first" smoke.
Now, I'm wondering how I could have been so stupid as to have bought so small of a humidor (100 ct). Last week alone, from that evil CB: Camacho Triple Maduro 11/18 - 5-Pack Camacho SLR Rothschild Maduro - 5-Pack Camacho 1962 Corona - 5-Pack CAO Gold Maduro Robusto - 5-Pack Macanudo Baron de Rothschilde Maduro - 5-Pack Monster Maduros IV Sampler - 20 Cigars This batch worked out to just under $3 a stick. Gonna need to throw together a coolidor to stash what's coming this week. 
Bastards & pushers... all of you!

How do you like those Nubs? Haven't tried any yet, myself. Hey JH, Well to start with I heard really good things about the nubs and I agree they are very nice. I am still really new to sticks so its hard for me to give descriptive flavors, but if pressed I would say peppery maybe a little spicy with a cream lol I hope that makes sense. Another reason I got them is I thought they would not last as long to smoke... LOL whatever it took me about an hour and a half to finish it. I don't have a smoking room just yet and I smoke in my shop witch is not heated (I should get a space heater) and here in Idaho about 5000ft its a little cold this time of year!! Some say the Habano Nub tastes like the Oliva Serie V, I don't know since I have not smoked one YET. I will buy more when mine runs out that is the true test if you will buy them again, I hope that helps. Take care and Merry Christmas. Josh |

This isn't "cigar buyers anonymous"...peddle your guilt elsewhere sir 
After falling in love with the Illusione, I was a little disappointed in the Cruzado 
It was ok, but too expensive to be just ok in my book. I'll give another a go at some point though in case the problem was me and not the smoke

Ha, I know, didn't give me credit. Nah, Walts a great guy and I could care less.
I really like the Cruzado more than the Illusiones, which seem a bit bland to me. |

Tody I bought the last 5 AF Anejo 48's left in Birmingham...Hell,the last Anejo's PERIOD left in B'ham.
This Anejo season, I ended up with a box of #77's (Sharks) and 10 #50's, 7 #55's and 15 #48's. These are all going to sit for at least 6 months. I am now poor, but I'll have some righteous smokes.

The Black Puro is another impressive, small-batch handmade in Gurkha’s highly enjoyable portfolio of super-premium handmades. Naturally, only the finest, most patiently aged tobaccos are chosen for this bold cigar. A robust blend of Cuban-seed long-fillers grown in the lush Ciboa Valley of the Dominican Republic. Perfectly balanced and masterfully blended, this choice recipe is topped off with a jet-black maduro leaf that’s oozing with natural oils. The result is nothing short of spectacular. Rich hints of coffee bean and toast tease the palate, while a satisfying peppery aftertaste escapes through the nose. Medium to full-bodied and super-slow burning, the Black Puro is a complex beauty layered with flavor that remain smooth down to the nub. Enjoy!
MSRP: $9 - $12 per cigar. Category: BOXES Cigar Size: 7.5" x 52 ring

Josh Thanks... For New Years Eve I smoked an Opus X super beli that I had aging for a couple of years and it was out of this world. That sucker lasted three hours.....pure bliss
I like them fresh too, but they are much better after a bit of aging IMO. |

Nice haul M-60 Josh I used to smoke them quite a bit, but they've fallen out of favor with me, I think my anti-Domincan bias.  IM me your addy and I'll send you a fiver.
I really like the X-Fuerte, it's my favorite of the Gurkhas. I broke down the last couple days. I've tried my hardest not to buy anything, don't go to cbid, try not to look, but someone posted up a link to the joecigar 10 pack of Man O Wars. I've only had one but really liked it and $30 shipped was too good to pass up. Then of course they had a similar deal on the DPG Cuban Classics. I am weak.
