Got this from a buddy that just opened the box of these he had in humidor for 2 years.

So nice and smooth

Special release

Our local lounge hosted the Romacraft guys and it was pretty fun. I'm enjoying their lines. They are out of Austin and make a pretty good stick.

Hope your new year is filled with good sticks.

Great deal

I've got a tuperdore to store my cigars. Do y'all store your cigars in or out of the cellophane wrap they come in?

In reply to 5StarShield Usually leave them in it, but doesn't hurt to take it off.

I've been smoking cigars for a few years now, but just stumbled upon this thread.

I've always seemed to gravitate to a Connecticut wrapper cigar and the Rocky Patel Connecticut Vintage 1999 was my go to for years. The Perdomo Champange and the Padron Damaso were up there as some favorites as well. The Padron always seemed to burn very quickly which was annoying for a $15 stick.

I always like drinking a little bourbon while enjoying a cigar and when Camacho released their Connecticut Distillery series, which paired really well with bourbon, I had thought I had found the only cigar I would ever need to smoke again......... and then they discontinued it. I think I have 4 sticks left and I they are special occasion only now.

Anyways, as of late, I have been smoking the Brickhouse Double Connecticut, usually a toro or robusto, and I have really found a liking to them.

I went through the last 13 pages of this thread and didn't see anyone recommend them, so I figured I would give a recommendation. It's a $6 stick, so very budget friendly, and typically burns straight and has a good draw/construction. My only complaint is the glue they use for the wrapper label sometimes pulls the leaf off a touch but that is minor in the grand scheme of things.

In reply to D-Dubya-09 Brickhouse Connecticuts are always solid.

A good go to for a mellow smoke. Enjoy the Oliva Connecticut Robusto with whiskey but especially coffee.

Not a big cigar guy but I'll smoke one occasionally with friends. Went looking for the new Blackened cigars today from Drew Estate & Metallica and my local shop was completely sold out already.

Just got my stogies from the above posted deal. Not bad for $20

Looks like the deal is still going so I ordered another pack. It limits to 1 per order but I guess it doesn't limit seperate orders.

20 bucks? Wow nice grab

In reply to Texaggie7nine Just ordered one myself.

In reply to Texaggie7nine That Olivia sampler is on cigarbid all the time. I bought one for 9 bucks the other day. Here's my recent purchase:

Oliva 5-Star #2 Sampler 5 cigars $9
Montecristo Lover's Assortment 5 cigars $15
La Aroma de Cuba Assortment Box 5 cigars $25.50
Buddy's Pick Boutique Bender Sampler 15 cigars $31.50
Sampler included:
5 each Hoyo La Amistad Gold Robusto
5 each Dias de Gloria by AJ Fernandez Robusto
5 each Diesel Whiskey Row Robusto

I bought 2 of the samplers cause a buddy wanted one. 45 smokes for $134 which included tax and shipping. Averages out to 3 bucks each. Great way to get a bunch of cigars to try on the cheap if you are looking for some variety.

I need a good torch lighter. I'm on my second Xikar and I can't keep it lit. I have gone through the troubleshooting several times. Is there one not prone to malfunctioning? Any tips?

I snagged a box of Montecristo's at the Rome airport a few years ago. I need to smoke them.

Montecristo Platinum. Pairs well with a dominating Cowboy win.

I am a big fan of Colibri from their lighters to their V-Cutters. They are a bit on the expensive side but they last. I would recommend the Colibri Slide. It's a very nice dual flame torch lighter.

In reply to Texaggie7nine I ordered a couple of packs myself. Got the first one today. Thanks for the heads up!

Tried out one of the Nubs from the pack to see how moist they were. Waw perfect with only a few days in humidor.

Happy Easter to all fellow cigar lovers.

Watching Masters outside with a padron from Christmas.

Bday round

Good for the price

In reply to Texaggie7nine Thanks for keeping the thread going. Not a bad end to the day here.

Got a sample pack of these Don Linos. So far have been very good for price.

My favorite stick

Great day. Pairing with four roses single barrel and some quail and pheasant poppers. Life is good!
