How many of you smoke cigars?

Baccarat is my favorite. Also, romeo y juliet on occasion.

 

I average on or two every two weeks. 5 Vegas Gold, Occidental Reserve, Hoyo de Monterey Excalibur (Connecticut), La Flor de Ynclan, Cigar.com Cuban label, Sol Cubano Cuban Cabinet Robusto, Cusano 18 Double Connecticut.

 

i use to smoke cigars alot when i was younger. but after a while i noticed that after i smoked one, my mouth would feel funny and taste weird for 24 to 48 hours depending on the cigar. it felt like my tongue had been scraped and things didn't taste as good. do you guys just power through that or do you get use to it or what? i have recently started smoking a pipe, and enjoy that quite a bit. the smoke is much milder. plus you get to buy pipes and trinkets and stuff. and everyone knows that the more cool trinkets you get to buy, the cooler your hobby

 

Wow.. These are Faker than a $3 bill

 

hmm. i dont really have that problem. i hate it when i get the occasional piece of tobacco on my tongue or in the back of my throat. burns like hell

 

My tongue has been scorched a time or two when I have smoked a cigar too fast or down to the nub. I usually back off the cigars for a few days and everything returns to normal.

 

I hate you guys! lol

I like the Gurkha Grand Reserve cigars, and many others.

 

cohiba cubans. from habana and mine are always real

 

how the hell do you get them? pm me if you dont mind sharing

 

And why are you so sure they are real.. Just curious.. Because they are from Havana? no pm's needed, post it up here

 

And how do you know that? If you read Cigar Aficionado it says they are So many fakes it hard to get real ones. Even if you went to Cuba its self you can still be sold fakes because Cuba is a small island only so many can be made physically. and the market for fakes is so great that it out numbers the real deal. The last Article in there one of the Editors bought one at the Four Seasons in the Caribbean and he was sold a fake one. You have to smoke a lot of cigars to notice if what you have is the real deal and tastes the way it should.

 

Most Likely? lol.. Those are 1000% fake.. i woulnt soke them; god knows whats rolled up in there..

 

I was thinking the same thing. I just deleted that part because I didn't want to sound rude lol

 

its ok... theres no rudeness in the truth...

ive seen people smoke fake cubans that have had peices of plastic in them. bundles of hair.. dried up plant stems.. people will do anythign to turn a buck, and since they are usually selling them to tourists, they dont give a crap what happens

 

Yup. I have two SUPER fake ones I bought over spring just because how fake they were. lol I bought two different brands and they had the same exact font on them. I'll post a picture when I get out of the office. It was in a cigar shop in St. Thomas also. So it just shows how easy it is to get a fake.

 

BTW, incase anybody thinks im shooting from the hip, heres the latest picture of my stash.. Cigars are my #1 hobby, THEN Tacomas. hehe

 

If I ever move to NJ, I'm going to have to become your friend. lol Very nice collection.

 

Very Nice set up! No wonder why you know your stuff

 

haha.. actually i usually go over by you ( California ) once a year at least (late summe, early fall), to gather with some cigar friends.. Usually i stay in the newport Beach area.

 

i know who's house im going to if im ever out that way!
