[lenidog]

[Crazy Guggenheim]

3. Savinelli. With the taper top.

[ralps]

8. Congrats again Crazy

Is it like these?

:hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :woohoo:

[Crazy Guggenheim]

13. The top is the same! only the *smaller* band isn't there.

[lenidog]

9. I haven't had one of those in a long while

Though I will join you in a smoke. I am going to break out one of my Fuente Hemingway Short Stories.

[Crazy Guggenheim]

12. OOOOHHH! Those are good.

[lenidog]

15. I love them

They have become my favorite smokes ever since the Dunhill stopped making their Canary Island cigars

[Crazy Guggenheim]

16. Dunhill stopped about two years ago?

[lenidog]

23. They stopped making the Canary Island cigars around

97 or 98. Which sucked because the Canary Island Coronas were my favorite smokes.

2. I think I'll join ya (firing one up) (n/t)

[Crazy Guggenheim]

4. Just did it. What are you smoking.

[The Traveler]

27. A Thompson

Robusto. Pretty nice, actually.

:smoke:

[fujiyama]

5. Where did ya get it?

I've never had a very nice cigar...Usually the cheap stuff. I really want to try a Cuban sometime.

There's nothing quite like a good cigar and a drink.

[Crazy Guggenheim]

7. I got it in San Anselmo CA.

[lenidog]

11. Nothing better than a Cuban and a rum and coke.

My favorite is the Cohiba Lancero

[Crazy Guggenheim]

14. You guys do know!

[lenidog]

18. My aunt used to own a tobacco shop till about 7 years ago

when she retired. I used to help out a lot and learned about tobacco, cigars and pipes. I also made a lot of connections and friends who also knew about them. When I was in the army one them used to keep my supplied with Cuban cigarettes. He traveled often there and would pick up a carton for five bucks. Cuban cigarettes are made out of the excess tobacco when they cut the leaves for cigars. So they are fine smokes.

6. sounds good

I wish i wasn't sick right now. No use in wasting it when i can't taste it.

[Crazy Guggenheim]

10. I think it's made with Nicaraguan tobacco but processed in Italy.

[Crazy Guggenheim]

17. I also have an Onyx Reserve. Maybe tomorrow.

[lenidog]

20. If you ever want to try a excellent smoke that doesn't cost you an

arm and a leg. Try El Rey Del Mundos.

[Crazy Guggenheim]

22. I;ve had thise before. The Savanelli's cost between $5-6.

[lenidog]

24. That is a good price for them

[soothsayer]

29. They're my favorite golf cigar! And for just plain knocking around

Those big double coronas or whatever they are, wrapped in the tissue paper. Or even the bundles. What a steal!

[Ilsa]

19. My husband sometimes smokes Cubans when he visits

Canada. So far, he hasn't said anything about them being very remarkable. I bet he isn't spending much on them, though. What should he try when he's there (in Canada) again?

[Crazy Guggenheim]

21. The big think about the Cubans is thet have to be kept correctly.

Make sure he goes to a store that has them in a humidor.

On Edit:

Stick them in a freezer - that's right - for 48 hours. It get rid of the bugs!

[lenidog]

25. Depends on what kind he likes

If he likes a strong smoke that will kick his but then try Cuabas or a mid flavored the Bolivar. I good mild smoke would be a Cohiba, Trinidad or Fonseca.

[soothsayer]

30. Cohibas are sooooo overrated and overpriced! He should go

with Hoyo de Monterrey or my personal fave, Bolivar. Fonseca is fine, too. Ooooh----Partagas Reserve #4 (beautiful cigar with a pretty red ribbon around it, and boy is it good!). Punch or Romeo y Julieta if he likes 'em milder.

[EstimatedProphet]

26. Sounds really nice! I'd like a smoke myself

I may dig into my cigars here shortly (I have a couple Cuban Cohibas I'm saving, but there's someother good'uns too) or pull out the hookah later.

28. Butt heads! It's been thirty years since I ate a good cigar...

My chest x-rays probably look much better than yours, though...
