You need a trip to visit me again. Lord I have my work cut out for me…shotgunshooter3 wrote: ↑Sun Mar 09, 2025 3:59 am Once upon a time I would partake in a light cigar occasionally. However a few years ago in a place far away, a friend of mine gave me one. I nearly threw up after the first puff. I haven't touched tobacco since then.
This is my millennial showing up loud and clear, but I always preferred hookah anyway.
Love Acids and your Romeo y Julieta recommendation is spot on. Don’t know Tatiana, will add to the list of cigars to try!Justsomedude wrote: ↑Sat Mar 08, 2025 10:37 pm Cigars.
Romeo y Julietta 1875 Reserve.
Any of the ACID cigars.
Tatiana are amazing as well.
Arturo Fuentes were my go to cigar for a loooooooong time! I don’t think those guys can make a bad cigar. Their Hemingways are one of the easiest cigar choices for me. Don’t know Bobalu, yet another one to try. Davidoffs are spendthrift but worth it. It’s one of my “special occasion” cigars and always have a handful aging in the humidor.LMLarsen wrote: ↑Sun Mar 09, 2025 2:46 am My Dad smoked a pipe when I was a kid but gave it up for Lent one year and never picked it up again. My ‘son’ and I usually enjoy a couple of good cigars when we shoot sporting clays; Arturo Fuente and Bobalu are our favorites, although I did splurge for Christmas and got us a couple of Davidoffs…
You and your lovely lady got me hooked on Perdomos and they are now in rotation for both myself and my son. Opus-X is now resting on their laurels and name. They are very good, but I’ve had better at a lower price point. Olivia and Patron, like AF are always a good smoke and I love their maduro offerings.Diver43 wrote: ↑Sun Mar 09, 2025 5:44 am Cigars?
My go to, not too expensive is a well rested Perdomo Lot23. My favorite? Wanderlust by RoMa Craft. Only sold in Europe. Have a stock of Oliva, Perdron, a couple Opus X that some say can't be beat. I'm not one of them.
Another all time favorite is a Uncle Lee by Room 101.
Through trading, gifts and sales, I have a couple humidors, a cooler, and several Tupperware containers full with Boveda Packets to keep a level humidity.

I shared the Winderlusts you gave me with my son-in-law and we both agreed that if it was available locally it’d be in rotation for sure! Nice little smoke!
I’m probably going to be in Mexico sometime in April meeting my boss who’s from Munich. Maybe I can get him to smuggle some for us, if I can I’ll share with you
Go to Mexico or smuggle cigars? I have zero choice on the first, it's work related and I've brought back tons of cigars from Mexico before. Zero hassles, I just declare them.Gila wrote: ↑Mon Mar 10, 2025 12:17 amDon't do it...Wambli Ska wrote: ↑Sun Mar 09, 2025 7:44 pmYou and your lovely lady got me hooked on Perdomos and they are now in rotation for both myself and my son.

Smuggle cigars. If you declare them, you're golden, but if they are restricted or have duty on them, you'll need to deal with that. BTW I wouldn't go past a border town with things the way they are right now...Wambli Ska wrote: ↑Mon Mar 10, 2025 12:50 amGo to Mexico or smuggle cigars?

Oh I don’t drive there. Fly in, do business, have fun, fly home…. Nowhere near our border.Gila wrote: ↑Mon Mar 10, 2025 5:11 amSmuggle cigars.

That would make for some expensive cigars. Especially when you live near the border...Wambli Ska wrote: ↑Mon Mar 10, 2025 5:32 amOh I don’t drive there. Fly in, do business, have fun, fly home….
