    I'm too old for this crap…

    I feel your pain....lived in KC for 8 years because I transferred with my company to start up a new plant operation.....houses were cheap as opposed to Orange County, Ca. where buying a cardboard house was half a million. I bought a big f'n house in KC but the winters with sub zero...

    Cigar Factory French Quarter New Orleans

    Have been there and with my "free parking" placard I walk in and get my freshly rolled cigars and wander over to Cafe du Monde for some coffee and beignets ......get my sugar high and then over to Central Grocers and grab a couple of muffalettas and a jar of their olive salad....and that sets me...

    Box Didn't Pass Verification ...

    Why is it so hard to deal with Vendors who treat their consumers like shit? First of all....for those who purchase CC's...don't use MO's or anything else where you don't have recourse if things go wrong. I've always used a credit card that will let you dispute ANY charge...doesn't matter if...

    Rescuing a Cigar Platoon!

    JMHO....depending how long they have been out of a good environment of RH...they probably have lost their essential oils and when they are gone....they aren't coming back. You can rehydrate them but it's the oils that give cigars their taste. Belindas are pretty much a cigar of mediocre...

    Old camper to new cigar lounge.

    I was gonna suggest leaving the bedroom in....only because after a few hours of cigar "cologne" it might disturb the significant other when you come back into the house reeking of cigar manliness. How nice would it be to just lay back and go to sleep after having a great smoke session and a...

    Old camper to new cigar lounge.

    After taking out a lot of what you've already done and opening it up the ideas are endless. Big Screen and humidors with nice big cigar pics on the walls. Put a couple of exhaust fans in there and some pergo wood floors...no carpets as that will just hold tobacco aromas. Can't wait to see it...

    Invention idea: Hairbrained or genius.

    If a company was so inclined to spend a ton of money on this ( that's a HUGE "if" ) then your point is well taken but it would have to be a company with a BIG name to give this process credibility. Not sure what type of prospectus report would sell this idea but I'd love to read it because I...

    Invention idea: Hairbrained or genius.

    Building a better mousetrap seems to be a process for just about anything...even cigars. Even if one were to find a way to make a cigar taste the same all the way down to the nub the money and work involved to do this would be counter productive....1. The cost would negate the process....we'd...

    Fonseca vs. Quesada

    I love Quesada cigars...I love the Espanas...Heisenberg...Casa Magna but when it comes to the Fonseca lineage I can take em or leave em. This is a production of cigars that have their own blending which is not the same as a true line Quesada. I don't believe that the tobacco being put into the...

    Moldy HdM Epi#2's

    This story never has a happy ending to it...depending where you bought these I'd contact the Vendor and let em know with photos that you'd like some resolution to this. When I buy any product with my hard earned money I tend to want that product to be in good shape. Hopefully your Vendor has a...

    Another round of is this fake? Maduro 5's

    We're not offended at all and we'd rather help a brother out before he gets taken for a ride and spends good money on fakes or worse yet...smoke a fake cigar with floor sweepings and other stuff you don't even want to know. Those who make fake Fubans wouldn't care if they put horse$hit or even...

    Can I bundle cigars with cotton mesh?

    Gotta agree with this.....most people want others to agree with their reasoning so they ask expecting total agreement with their choices regardless of it being about cigars or driving to Nevada to enjoy the Bunny ranches and want to believe that their investment will be positive for what they...

    Return or keep. Help me decide. Plz

    Interesting thread that always comes up. Are there significant Vendors out there that will guarantee their product...of course there is and those are the ones that should be used for the reasons posted here. Mold is a condition that happens with cigars and since ALL of us aren't the ones who...

    Question about humidor

    For several reasons: 1. They impart the cedar aroma transfer to your cigars. 2. Good wood humidors depending on size don't go bad and last a lifetime. 3. Like most things in life they are items we enjoy...like a nice watch, good suit, etc. and enthusiasts like looking at a nice humidor...

    Another round of is this fake? Maduro 5's

    There are so many instances of posts asking for authenticity that it shakes the soul. If one has to ask about them being authentic then it should ring the bell as to researching first. Noobs tend to want to buy anything from anywhere and expect it to be authentic without first doing their due...

    Question about humidor

    More than likely this humidor is one of the run of the mill humidors from Thompsons, CI, etc. that I've seen over the years. They are cheap humidors that are pressboard with little to no cedar. I bought a few in the early 2000's ( 50 count size ) to give a way to BOTL who were new to the...
