Cigars??

I'm not much of one for gurkhas as I have only had satisfaction with a couple of their lineup over the years. But after reading about "the beast" and reading reviews on it, I would have got them for what you paid also.

The addition of the excise tax really sux here.

As far as I know, the ammo is not subject to such a blessing like that.............yet! Maybe you shouldn't have brought it up as that witch just may be watching!

 

I didn’t buy any on CB, I got the one I had today in a sampler pack. I didn’t want to buy any until I had the one I bought earlier. It was a good cigar, they are probably good candidates to buy & forget about for a year or two.

 

Any of you fellas tried the Flor de San Andrés by Rocky Patel ?

 

I had those in the non-maduro wrapper version years ago and enjoyed them. There may even be one left in that mess of a coolidor somewhere.

 

I am hauling grain again today, 1-1/2 hour from bin to the ethanol plant so I am pulling out of the ethanol plant and thinking I will have a stogie on the way home when I come to the startling realization that I don’t have a lighter. Well chit..
I don’t want to stop at a store on the way home because I want to keep things moving & get done. I start digging thru all the crap my brother has piled in cup holders & little junk collection bins & voilà what do I find but this gem.



What are the odds of this thing working???
Ideal cigar lighting apparatus, well no but will serve the purpose if functional.

We have ignition!!!

 

java?

 

Yes sir.

 

I got a box of goodies today, now I just need to let them season a bit. I am was a little stumped by this bag of stuff.



I am pretty excited to try these other cigars also

 

Both of the pictured items look tasty. I have a San Lotano of some type that I bought in Weston.

Tomorrow morning we are planning on doing up several dozen bags of sweet corn

 

Thompson’s emailed & said my order with the RP Dark Dominions & AJF Empress of Cubas finally shipped out they should be here Monday I guess.

 

I’m sorry Dave I was having a Java Red on my second trip, the one in the photo was a CAO Moontrance.

So I told you wrong in my original quote.

 

Going to have a My Father
The Judge this evening, I used a v-cut as well.

 

Good evening fellas! I'm the fella JimBear mentioned this thread to, over on OPE.

I'm a firewood hoarder, chainsaw lover, west Kansas native and currently live there, and a cigar smoker, among other things. I just finished reading all 91 pages of this thread and figured I'd chime in, since I'm up to speed.

I got into cigars a few years ago. I was basically like JimBear is now. Lol Not gona lie James, you are acquiring a heck of a collection and you're not wasting any time. Very nice! We definitely go at things the same. I bought so many that first year or so, I haven't had to buy much the past 2-3 years.

I mostly smoke cigarillos during the week, with an occasional big cigar during the week, but I mostly save the better cigars for the weekends. I learned pretty quick that this can get very expensive, very quick, so I try to keep myself from going crazy buying stuff now. (Too many dang hobbies and none of them are cheap) However, I am needing to buy some more and get my supply built back up. So, I'll be trying some mentioned in this thread.

I run a couple cheap wooden humidors. A 100 count glass lid one that I bought first thing. One of those inexpensive ones, like 50 bucks maybe or something like that. Then I bought one of those Havana Foot Lockers. Supposed to hold 300. Got it on sale for like 150 maybe. Never counted how many I had in there, but it's decent enough and hold a bit. I took all the dividers and trays out and just stuffed it as full as I could. I'd like to get 1 big one, but I'm gona be moving to a farm within the next year, so I'm waiting till I get there, before I buy something better.

My go to cigarillos are Acid Frenchies. They're small, but absolutely amazing! I also like Acid Krush Golds, Acid Krush Greens, Acid Krush Candelas and the Acid Krush Blues as well. There's a pattern here. Lol My go to full size cigar is the Monte Cristo Platinum Toros, or Robustos. I generally prefer smaller ring gauges, but those Platinums are too good.

Yooperdave, unfortunately, I am not rich and I'm about as simple of a guy as there is. I drive a 42 year old pickup with 330k on it and live in a 140 year old house. But I have a fairly decent collection of chainsaws. Lol

Well, here's what I had while I mowed my lawn today. Stout little thing, but it was good. Gave me a body buzz. Lol

Well, thanks for having me fellas and thanks James, for the invite!

 

That looks like a good one.
yooperdave just gives me crap about being rich because of my over zealous buying of cigars so based on your buying habits we are both loaded.
