A Quick Question

[logan37]

I am referring to plume. I am sure it is plume and not mold.

How are you sure?

Still only worth $15.

Because I am experienced enough to tell the difference between mold, be it either white, blue or green, and plume, no matter what my post count or username is.

Interesting...

Ok, thank you, i have smoked two and shared one with one of my dormmates, a cigar virgin and a cigarette smoker. I will be getting more.

Oh, you're experienced all right! I can tell!

I betcha you could tell the difference between a Nicaraguan versus a Honduran wrapper all day long!!! And those Mexican binders - you're all over that too!!! The differences between Cohiba's, Monte Cristo's and Vegas Robaina's never escape you - do they?

What are your thoughts on the Bolivar Gold Medal? How about the regional releases of Cuban cigars? Any thoughts around thoese?

I know you very much appreciate Stanford Newman and what he brought to the cigar world, don't you?

With the hacks we have on this board, it will be refreshing to have someone with the breadth and depth of your knowledge. I'm waiting with baited breath to hear your take!

Thank GOODNESS you're here. We need your kind of experience on this board! It's definitely a pleasure to watch!

I may not know as much as most cigar snobs, but I can tell the difference between mold and plume. I didn't think it would be this much of a problem.

Problem was calling us assholes.

[ZombieWeinerDog]

OK, i apologize.

[denver24]

Uh oh...

[ashauler]

OK, i apologize.

OK, i am not gong to be an asshole.

1. Don't buy anything made by a machine.
2. Don't buy anything from a gas station.
3. I am not going to tell you not to get an acid, I got started liking acids, and I have moved on to better, and now hate them.
4. I would search google for a smoke shop near your home town. (search something like: Cigar, (town name) or tobacco, (town name))
5. If you are on a budget, and buying for a few people, i would recommend Quorum Cigars as a bottom line.
6. Look in the review selection.

Just so we're all clear on what you've tendered your reluctant apology for, since you edited the original post.

Oh, and btw, some things this hack disagrees with in your above post:
1. Bullshit. Some decent machine made cigars are available that contain 100% tobacco and real wrapper leaf. Search here, or google will help you find some of them.

2. Bullshit again. Some gas stations in Canada have decent cigars available for purchase, again, 100% tobacco...some even long or mixed filler hand made cigars.

3. Bullshit, once again. I care for those that I call BOTL's, so I would indeed tell anyone not to waste the $$ and taste buds on Acids by accurately and succintly describing my experiences with them in hopes they would not suffer as I did.

And I also agree that you most likely don't know as much as most cigarsnobs either.

"think" is the operative word here. Some use "think" as a path to avoid pitfalls - others use "think" as a path to disaster.

You're on a good path knowing the difference between "mold" and "plume" - but it's clear you're inches into the start of your journey. Which way is next, sparky???

They've been out for awhile, a couple of years anyway. There are many different versions, and several different price points.

Oh, and since your so knowledgeable, I'm sure you're aware that bloom does jack squat for the flavor of the cigar, and only indicates proper storage over time. I'm just one of the hack's that hangs out here, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn express last month.

Don't listen to ashauler -- we all know the lingering effects of "staying smart" at a Holiday Inn last 24-48 hours max.

Don't you have somebody to sue or sumptin'?
