I wnet to NY over the summer and loved it. I went to Barclay-Rex and this place in SoHo. (I forgot the name) Only when I got home to Texas, did I discover the Davidoff stores in NY. There is one off Madison and another somewhere in Manhattan. It was then I also discovered the existance of the Davidoff Manhattan cigar. The store's online price for a single stick is 36 bucks. Has anyone smoked it, and if so, is it worth it for me to purchace and smoke at home for a special occasion?
I suspect - based upon what you've previously posted - that you already know the quality of Davidoff cigars. So - I suppose the answer to your question would depend on whether or not you can afford to light up and burn "36 bucks".Quote:

If you love Davidoff as well, we must have similar tastes. If you've had it, was it worth it to you?
If I were to answer "yes", would you immediately hit the "buy" button?Quote:

The concensus opinion of those who have tried that cigar. Once I get a feel from about 5 others, then I might rush to hit the "buy" button.
4 out of 5 dentists recommend......Quote:

I wonder how they get it to do that.
If you have $36 to spend on one stick you should be getting a newb sampler and enjoying a bunch of really great sticks numerous times. That's just my $0.02
To reply to your original question, sorry I haven't smoked one. I can't justify burning a stick that expensive when I know that there are others that I really enjoy that are much cheaper.
Personally - they're my go-to smoke. I smoke several a week. My philosophy is "why save 'em for a special occasion!". If you're asking my opinion - hit the "buy" button - and you should order at least 5! You can't go wrong!
I can also tell you, they're not "soft". Despite that - I still think they're pretty fresh. :smiley20:
But what a quandry... You have my opinion - but what's a cigar smoker to do if he cannot be influenced by a total of 5 cigar smokers!?!? You have my opinion, but I'm only a force of one! :smiley3:
saviour - I have a funny feeling we're going to fall a tad bit short on the 5 person requirement. :smiley2:
Good luck! :smiley37:
Guess he can't see the squiggly red lines under the words he misspells.
Hell, for $36 you can get one of them Bronx hookers to take her teeth out.:smiley2:
Doc.
I was using a comp at my college campus, and they only run IE without an auto-spell check. Now that I am at home, nothing is misspelled. I love it.Quote:

If you bring a nice looking blonde with you - there's an even better chance he'll spend the entire night with you!
And - as an extra added bonus - they have Avo cigars in their store that you can only get at Corona. :smiley2:
Am I saviour? Phonetically it sounds like my name. O.o
I don't know how we survived without you - perhaps you're the second coming... :smiley2:Quote:

I always find it interesting when newblets feel the need to remove the "junior" prefix from their member title.

My true intent for all my posts is to get a "senior-level" prefix from my member title.
In all reality, I'm just a kid who likes to post, keep things lively and get a feel for things. I would like to find my place on the forum.
Oh yea, you just found your place.:smiley20:
Doc.
Yep - and a chigger has a "place" too! :smiley2:Quote:

Here's a comprehensive break down of where to smoke in NYC

That's pretty pathetic.:smiley21:
You sure are impressed with yourself for someone who isn't smart enough to properly identify high end booze and cigars.:smiley29:
Do you really smoke Davidoffs and drink whisky or do you just steal reviews from other sites in an attempt to give your half-assed blog some credibility? Scroto used to do that here and it went over with this group about as well as you are which isn't good.

Two of these are the Cigar Inn's, one in Lenox Hill at 1st and 71st and the other in Midtown at 2nd and 54th.
I see his useless blog no longer exists.:smiley36::smiley20:Quote:

After I recover, I hope to start a new thread of Cigar shops and lounges I've visited in Manhattan but it might take a while to heal the deep wounds you inflicted.:smiley36:
There are quite a few places that pretty much only sell their house brands, some not bad others well, not so good.
