I have NEVER ever liked smoking ciggar, until i found by accident the Monte No4 I smoked the No2 as well but I find it a bit to big.
This one never gives me any scratchy felling in my throat and I get a nice buzz :D

Monte Christo Especial N°1, Lusitanias by Patargas, I still like the Cohiba Lanceros and the Esplendido, Super Selection N°1 by Punch, Sir Winston by Upmann and I love Bolivar, specially the Immensas and the Gigantes. Also 8-9-8 by Partagas is great. The double corona by Ramon Allones is one of the best VFM cigar.

Do you usualy buy them single or in a box?
Title: Re: Cigar question???
Post by: RZA on June 19, 2008, 06:14:37 AM
Single, it's a bit safer to control the quality and it gives you the chance to experiment different cigars even if you don't have the room to stock a lot.

Do you order online RZA?  If so, who do you like?  Retail is too expensive in my area.

yeah me too, I usualy buy one when I go out hiking and stay out over night, it's real nice to have a cigar when you have
a good fire going in the woods under your hootchie.
Keeps the bogieman of your mind as well ;)

No, I don't as I need to "touch and smell" (not unlike with women). I've got an excellent shop not so far from my place, the guy who owns it is really passionate about it. I live in France though and prices (even though they have become more and more expensive) are still affordable, except Cohiba which is pretty much a rip off.

The only shop around is pretty expensive.  It keeps me from becoming a frequent smoker I suppose.  They've got a great selection

http://www.devlinscigars.com.au/shop.php?cat=1

but their markup and swank location overhead make for some outrageous prices, particularly on the sundries.  Scroll through the 8 pages of "cigar toys" for a good laugh at the amount of money you can waste.

Haven't had one in a while.

I don't have experience with them as some do. To be honest, a nice cigar to a novice like has always been about price and latin american heritage. The one's I had like Cohiba, H. Upmann were pretty unique because the tobacco is totally unlike anything I had before that. To me cigar smoking is glamourous thing.  ;D

The city and Long Island have tons of cigar shops, some where you can even sip an espresso and enjoy your favorite smoke. There's one around 57th street and close to Central park south where I bought a smoke from and where the staff is cool and you can even smoke inside the shop.

I like cigars. I really like the Pirate's Gold original blend from Rolando Reyes. The Indian Tabac Super Fuente Maduro's are awesome.

That's the best place in the world to get smokes. Ghurka's are my favorite.

Use to be addicted to cafe creme minis

It started to impact my breathing though and my throat started to bother me. I quit about four years ago and haven't smoked one since

Thankfully they don't. Just burgers, pizzas, sausages, the odd mars bar, englishmen.


Since they banned smoking in pubs here i haven't smoked so many. Still free to do so on the golf course thankfully.

Montecristo's have tended to be the best smokes i've experienced.

Most of the tobacco shops here sell the brands but the cigars are Dominican and Honduran.

I think you can get them in Canada fairly easily. I don't think Canada participates in the trade embargo. I bought some in Windsor, Ontario when I used to live in Michigan

When I went there it was before 9/11. I think they got more strict about passports since then. Probably isn't worth the risk. Why don't You have a passport?
