I've said this before - but this is just a reminder. I'll be breaking BOTL over time in order to get it into a far better place. Just be patient if you can't reach us! We'll be back
We all want to experience plume on our cigars but the truth is that plume ...while it does exist...is a veritable unicorn and in 50 years of this hobby have seen it 3 times. I have about 3000 cigars with some as old as 18 years old. One would expect a treasure trove of plume in at least 1% of...
The main reason that Cigars were targeted was because of the chronic complaints from consumers...and get this...50% was from cigarette smokers! They shut down a lot of cigar lounges but barely touched the areas for cigarettes... hypocrisy at it's finest.
quit bustin my balls goombah..
Lol...it's not for 55 and over...there were plenty of 25 - 50 because the Caribbean is for younger and physically fit folks. The food is outstanding..the cabins are great...the ship is 25% wider and the length is longer than most other ships. I'm telling you its...

Having cruised most of the lines I can tell you the absolute best Cruise Line for Cigars....QM2 Churchills Lounge...second to none.

To My Dad...my hero! He shot down one of the last...if not the last Kamikaze Pilot in WWII but was never officially put in the books. The Destroyer he served on...USS Heermann DD 532 ( Destroyer X ) he was a 20mm gunner on the aft part of the ship where he was strapped in for the entire battles...
Have had this subject come up from time to time....a member on another board posted this and seems accurate
The use of copper was adequate for cigar storage, because it was basically inert in flavoring the tobacco, and because it retained humidity quite effectively....
Antique humidors were...
Welcome from NW Atlanta and part time San Diego. I love PR and have been there many times and my heart does grieve for the good people there who have had to deal with so much. How is it going since the news doesn't really report on the reality and devastation that you have to face? I am anxious...
Take it from a hobbyist of 50 years....we can get caught up in the "collecting" the best cigars and saving them for some future date and that is a habit I had to break away from. Some premiums just don't measure up over a certain time frame while some do. There are exceptions to the rule and...
My dream vacay is to take a few weeks and go to these places where all of this activity goes on...along with Rum and Tequila Tours....sounds like Heaven to me!
I wish I knew more about this as I have never grown or blended tobaccos from different areas....but everything I have read tells me that each area does have their indigenous tastes...i.e. "twang" as we say about CC's. Professional Manufacturers grow and blend as a Specialty item from those...
In PA. from what I read once you purchase your home ( has to be your primary ) you become eligible but you'll need to check and see if there is a wait time...it was for me here in Ga. We save about $1500 a year on our property taxes so your state may be different as to their laws...but they do...
As was said you can still do a 30 year mortgage but pay an extra 50 to a $100 a month on the principal and in 10 years should be surprised how far down the mortgage has been paid.
Having bought and sold at least 11 house.....I have the best advice....Real Estate Lawyer! It is well worth the money spent to protect you unless you are a lawyer yourself. These guys do this everyday...it's a living for them so they know the laws and they can save your a$$. I did one deal...
This is what they call a "toothy" cigar.....If you rub the white dots and they don't come off the wrapper leaf, it may be a “toothy” wrapper. This usually coincides with magnesium deposits as well...have had my fair share of these....tiny little white dots.
I love mystery bombings...no name ...just mailboxes melted and destroyed and leaving the recipient in shock trying to find the culprit. If one has OCD...this is the worst of all cigar bombings because we can't let go of "whodunit"...just f'n cruel...in a great sort of way.
