Yep. The cigar shop had Partagas on sale last week and I picked up a few. I can never find Cohibas for a reasonable price.

Smoked a Perdomo earlier today while putting down some grass seed.

I'm still kind of naive in regards to cigars, I had always just bought a Fuentes, this last year I have been expandingy horizons, like the cohiba's but like the partagas as much for less
Money. Nolan's in TC has a great selection of cigars, you must have some good shops down there? I was amazed at how much I didn't like the Ashton's I paid more for

I had a big fat plug of grizzly wintergreen while throwing down some grass seed. Almost the same thing.

Really need to change that, IMO. Had my first a couple weeks ago and it's hard to pick up anything else. Not bad on price either.

How much are you boys paying for cigars these days? Right after high school I worked in a tobacco wholesale warehouse and the owner also owned 2 smoke shops, I tried several cigars but never really could get into it.

Did you have one of the Ashton VSGs?


We have a couple good cigar shops with smoking lounges, something about walking into a walk-in humidor that's just fun.

I have yet to find a brand of cigar I don't like (except Drew and any of those other faggy flavored cigars).
Patel, Perdomo, Partagas, NuB, Cohiba, CAO, Fuente, Oliva, Macanaudo, they all make cigars I like.

I'm not a big fan of the double maduro or darker wrappers, they seem to over power the flavor of the tobacco.

$8 seems to be average for me but good smoke can be had for cheaper.

$7-$20/stick.

I think the most I've ever paid was for a couple Fuente Opus X that I wanted for the trip to Alaska to celebrate the first Harlequins.

Same here. Don't know jack shit about 'em but I do know I like darker ones as they seem to be less bitter to me.

Probably my favorite are Makers Mark cigars or the Montecristo #2 now that I am overseas and can smoke them.

I buy cheap cigars online for putzing around. If I pay more than 2 bucks for one, its a big event. Lots of good cigars out there for <3 dollars if you are willing to buy in bulk.

Haven't found one that I wanted to put down. Maduro is better. I've had a few cubans but either I was too young to appreciate them, or they weren't that good.

Since when are American spirits cheap? Might burn three a month on average, most times if that.

They're only a buck more a pack, but they burn twice as long and taste twice as good. So they're actually cheaper.


So there.
