r/cigars

A corona A. Fuente, with a Guatemalan Lager, found it to be a smooth pairing. Surprised how low the nicotine kickback was as I haven't had a cigar in years. Hubby baught some sticks for me from the cruise ship he went on in the carabian/south America. Do you think most cruise line big port citiy brick and mortar stores carry legit and/or cheaper cubans that the ships themselves? Thank you guys, have a nice one.

I’ve been on a lancero phase lately. What other lanceros should I try?

Celebratory cigar for me today. Officially a CCST and got hired on at a new job today!

Today’s cigar was a Diesel Whiskey Rabbit Hole Bourbon Barrel Aged. Nice consistent and mellow taste throughout the entire stick. No canoeing and burned well. Wrapper didn’t appear only but pretty good amount of tooth on the ash. Glad I got a five pack, definitely enjoyed this and looking forward to the next one!

I proposed a couple days ago and decided to celebrate with this Cohiba siglo 4 with about 3 years of age on it. Was super excited to try it. But it was a little bit of a letdown it was more mild than I was expecting with a slightly tight draw (I lost. my perfect draw tool) it was an objectively good cigar but was overpriced would prefer a d4 or Monte no 2. Got notes of hay and honey but I’m glad I scratched that itch to try a Cohiba.

Tried this bad boy today. Micallef A 6x60. Not usually a larger ring gauge guy (other than the flatheads) but this one was good. Upon light up I got immediate notes of dried fruit, chocolate, earth, and white pepper. Those flavor notes followed through till the middle of the second third where it turned into a chocolate bomb. Construction and ash were solid as always with this brand. Very tasty and I recommend. Next time I would get this in a smaller vitola though.

First time I had it the draw was pretty bad and it was constantly burning on one side only and going off but I found it delicious

When I found it again I bought a bunch and this time I had one of the best smoking experience ever, it burned perfectly

Next time I'll go to the tobacconist I'll try to understand if it's possible to put down an order for a box, sadly supply is low here apparently :(

This cigar came to me as a gift. I don’t get too excited about cigars as a celebrity collaboration because it just seems gimmicky to me but I’ll try anything once.
The song “blackened” was on what is imo the last really great Metallica album. This cigar falls into the category of everything that came after. It’s lighter, more approachable, well put together and I can see why people like it. It’s just not for me.
This thing had all the personality of a brown paper bag. Which I could have rolled up and smoked for the same experience flavor wise. It does get points for excellent construction and burn.

Found mold in the top tray of my humidor. Was on some sticks to. Tossed those and a few on some cellophane wrapped ones. Tossed the wrap. Any help how to clean it?

I’ve read a lot of mixed reviews on farm rolls not being 100% puros. Based on the information I’ve obtained through some reliable sources, these seem to be legitimate. What has been everyone else’s experience with custom farm rolls?

Today I smoked my father’s gran oferta. I had heard good and bad things about this cigar so I thought I would see for myself. The smoke had a semi sweet tobacco flavor throughout with light red pepper dancing in the background. There was also a wood flavor I couldn’t quite put my finger on maybe an oak type flavor. All in all a pretty good smoke construction was excellent and the burn needed one touch up. I would call this a good beginner cigar if they want to take the next step up to mid range.
