There are those out there who feel that the Cuban Cohiba marca is overhyped and over-rated. And I get that..as they aren't for everyone. The Siglo line specifically was blended to be less in your face than the regular line...which to me only sits a shade above medium body anyway. Smoked an...

I was surprised to see that 3rd band as well. Still not even quite sure what it's for. These came from someone in Canada though, so perhaps has something to do with that...but thats a complete guess. The smokes are Upmann Royal Robustos.

Then sell me the rest of your box you bastard! I shoulda jumped on these back when you found em, although by the time I saw your pic, they were already long gone. Don't know where these boxes are all hiding, but these have been too damn HTF.

Yup, will do Mike. Haven't seen much negative on these anywhere (or any for that matter).. and sounds like they sit pretty true to the Upmann profile...which is exactly what I'm hoping for!

Haven't bought anything in a while...and I overpaid for these a little as I bought private party, but I didn't care. Been looking for em' forever. Needless to say, I was quite pleased when these showed up tonight...

Musta been the white shorts... Matter of fact, there's a whole lotta white in this pic! Our annual guys golf trip is coming up here in a few weeks and I couldn't be more excited. I prolly won't shoot any sub 80 scores, but I'll drink & smoke plenty. Congrats on posting a nice round!

Good question, but I have no idea. Obviously you can skip out on sales tax, but this isnt that...so, who knows. Worth asking though...although if I had to guess, I'd bet the tax would be applicable still.

Upon further review, Costco booze in WA isnt such a smoking deal after all. With the passing of this new liquor sale deal...the state is getting their mits in the $$. Liquor tax of 20.5%. So while the base price of say the Kirkland Scotch (Mac 15) might look nice before tax...after tax, it's...

What are some of your favorites...to include preferred vitolas? I'll tell ya this either way, id love to be able to walk into a cc humidor and hand pick my own box. That'd be ridiculous...

Good info Mike..thanks! A certain 05 cab of Epi 1s has been taunting me lately...lol.

You're not alone. Only HdM EE I've ever had was the same. Not harsh so much as void of flavor...which I suppose couldve contributed to the harshness factor, as it pretty much just tasted like burnt tobacco. And it was an 08 IIRC, and over humidified wasn't the issue. Just a dud I guess. Happens...

Only two cigars come to mind for me when the adjective of "elegant" is the criteria. Upmann Sir Winston head and shoulders above anything else.. And to a lesser extent, but still moreso than pretty much anything else I've had...the Trinidad Robusto T.

I've researched the vodka only, but have only heard (here I believe) that the Scotch is Macallan 15. From what I found on the vodka, it's not made by GG..but is made in the same city in France...using the same process/water etc. From a few places I read comparison reviews, folks actually...

Nice to see a RASS review w/ a little game on it.....great review. No 06 or 05s here....but I did recently pick up a 5'er of 04s that I'm looking forward to burning. Hopefully they'll perform as well as the 06 did for you.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=MCUnWIs88CQ It's just not fair how hot this bitch is...:closedmou *Eff it...couldn't get this one to post here for some reason, so you get the link.

Yup...in WA. I'm sure Sun Drop or whatever the OP mentioned in the same as Squirt. Lot's of other citrus flavored sodas out there. I've also used Limeade from concentrate for ritas before, but you gotta watch out as sometimes that can wind up a little too tart...and why the agava nectar comes...

Not sure, never had Sun Drop...but I'd guess so. Seriously, you don't have Squirt? Doesn't strike me as a regional soda release..lol. I just don't like Margarita mix due to the sweetness. Which is why I prefer the Diet squirt to the regular. That, and to maintain my girlish craft beer-lovin' figure!

One of the most over rated sticks I've ever had was a Padron 80th Maduro. Just didn't do anything for me. Natural was better, but no where near worth the price (not too many are when youre talking $30/stick though I guess). Perhaps it's the vitola, as I used to love the 45th Maddies. Again for...
