What happened to The Great HBT Stogie Thread

[6midgets]

Get a bigger humi!!! ;-)

Seriously though, there are plenty of great domestic choices. Although i will say that any cigar will benefit from a nice rest in the humidor. For starters go to Arturo Fuentes, they have consistent quality, a few variations on the wrapper and some very nice maduros. Padron is another big hitter, their anniversary line although pricy, imo is one of the best cigars you can smoke. La Gloria Cubana Series R, Davidoff, CAO, Carlos Toraño, Rocky Patel....man theres so many! Experiment and start out by buying quality sticks. I always say get the best poison you can afford. Most often you will be rewarded with a quality smoke, thats not to say you cant get a quality smoke on a budget, but if you are just starting out stick to known quality until you start finding your own middle ground. Have fun!

I’m holding off on a bigger humidor. My wife and I just purchased some land that we plan to build a house on. I have plans for a much larger humidor in the new house. I’ve never had any Arturo Fuentes I’ll check them out. My current favorite is the La Gloria Cubana line. I’ve had some Padron. I forgot how great they where thanks for the reminder.

150qt cooler and some beads could last awhile. I have two. Wally World $75. They hold approx 50 boxes each. AF Hemingways, 858 all wrappers, grand reserva all wrappers and Xs no mark up. Lgdc n and r. Torino 50 Ann gold and champagne. So many to choose from.

Never failed to fill a cc order. Reputable dealers will resend or refund, your choice.

You can only ask cellophane or no cellophane so many times.

Every 100 posts or so seems about right.

Brew day. Munich helles. Trying lodo.

I got me some of these Juan Lopez 100% Cuban seed. Grown in Nicaragua. I guess we’ll see how it stacks up to a real CC

 

[Sprouthog]

If I saw this first I would have pulled a JL 1 or 2 cc. Nicaraguan soil makes for a good strong cigar. I’ll settle for a rass.

My first Cuban. This little thing is awesome. Smooth buttery cedar. Love it.

Good thing I stocked up on good smokes. I made the decision to retire today. 4 weeks and out.

Nice cigar I had tucked away in my humidor. Must have been a promo I got for free from Best Cigar Prices. Really nice, smooth. Leathery, caramel. Burned even and I'm at about 70 minutes on it, still tasting great.
