The cigar shop

Was the java aged any? Drew estate changed the wrapper and I think the blend of tobacco for the tabak.

Don't know all that much about cigars, only that I enjoy a good one every now and then.  I was in Florida a couple weeks ago for my birthday and smoked about 9 in 5 days, and while most were "meh", 2 of them really stood out:  I had a cigar made by Acid (I buy their hookah tobacco all the time) and my all time favorite to this point, a Makers Mark cigar.  Comes sealed in glass tubes with the red wax, but the flavor, mellowness, and smoothness of the smoke was absolutely exquisite!

Just wanted to contribute! haha.

I know i'm a little late lol, havent really been on here. ben you talking about this day?

I kinda think the makers mark cigar is made by Gurkha.

Disregard, theirs is a cognac cigar. I sit corrected

Aging flavored cigars doesn't make them better.  I've read a lot of reviews of the Java Latte, and I know there are others that feel the same as I do about it.

I'm not sure what was up wit that Nub Habano 358 I had last night.  It was good, but the flavor may have been affected by me torching it because of the wind.  Not sure why I got a headache though.  I have 3 more 358's, 2 460's, 2 464T's and 2 466's so I hope they get better with age.  I'm definitely going to pick up some more Nub Connecticuts and Cameroons though.  I really liked those.

If I feel up to it, I think I am going to try a Nub tomorrow night.

I had the oliva serie v melanio Churchill last night. It was longer than a usual Churchill and a 50 ring gauge. It was a really nice smoke. I had some problems getting it lit, but that was operator error. Once I got it cooled off from the couch up it was very tasty not to stout and had a mellow taste to it.

I've wanted to pick up the Oliva Serie V Melanio double ligero. Last night I had a Tatuaje 7th Capa Especial last night. I aged it for at least 3-4 months and it was great.

I've been picking up Lancero's lately.  I've only had a Tatuaje, but I'm looking forward to a few of them.  I also picked up another humidor.  This one should hold about 400-500 cigars.  It's going to be perfect for aging a lot of my cigars that I'm planning on keeping for a while.

[exelr8]

So you actually bought the humidor and didn't even send me a pic of it?

[timot_one]

I bought it, but haven't received it yet.  I was hoping it would have shipped out last week, but it will be shipping out on Friday probably.

Oh ok cool!

If you're a member of that forum, can you contact the guy about the FFP's?  You can give him my email or contact info if you want.

[exelr8]

Ill try. I replied to it

[exelr8]

Here you go Tim

That's what I have available for ligas. All from 2009 I believe (I tagged them all) the pigs are the originals and are $15 each.  All the other ligas are $13 each.

Let me know if you want them.

Best,

Ron
