I also make it a point whenever I go to the B&M to buy at least one cigar I've never tried before.




    Just to add to Jamie's mentions above:
    Oliva (I really like the series V maduro)
    Padron
    My Father
    Santa Damiana
    Well I do read tons of reviews, and things like that on cigar aficionado, and places like stoggie review, but ill check here too. I never really made a list thats a good idea i normally just make a mental note, but with a list ill never forget.
    I like oliva alot too I wanna try the V series, I have a bunch of Series O chruchhills in my humidor and like them alot, and have the master blend 3 too but havnt smoked it yet. I also wanna try some my father. I really wanna try the Flor de las Antillas Toro by my father, mostly cuz aficionado named it #1

    Sister Mary Deathstar would have smacked the crap out of my knuckles if I'd written something like that. Here - let me translate for you. I would hate for your thoughts to be lost in the translation...

    I do read quite a few reviews, (e.g. Cigar Aficionado, Stogie Review, etc) but I also like to check the reviews on this forum. Normally I make a mental note of what I'd like to try, but with a list I see I might not forget. I've never made a list but that is a good idea.

    I like Oliva quite a bit, but I want to try the V Series. I have a quite a few Series O Churchills in my humidor, which are quite pleasant. I also have the Master Blend 3, but have not yet smoked it.

    I also want to try My Father cigars. I'm also especially interested in their Flor de las Antillas Toro primarily because Cigar Aficionado recently named it #1

    Do draft dodgers have reunions? And if so what do they talk about?

    Candela smokes, anyone? Green stuff always makes me curious.

    Might be worth a try (or not)
    You are what you eat. That's why I'm a fat bastard.

    It appears they are again producing Candela cigars for nostalgic reasons. It was something that had been readily available back in the 70's and 80's but lost favor with cigar smokers. Apparently the cigar manufacturers are trying a re-release, albeit pretty limited. And it still does not seem to be taking off...

    I will say - personally - Candela is not to my liking.

    George, I know them well. I still remember a list of eleven verbs, in alphabetical order, other than the verb "To Be", that take a predicate nominative rather than a direct object. And, I rarely need spell check.

    Chrisboy if you ever see a Fuente 858 Candella buy 1 and see how you like it. Everybody has a different take on flavor but you will be smoking a quality smoke
    The older I get ,the better I was
