Author Topic: Cigar Affectionados? bucksnort Miss Chris from AZ Member # 202 posted August 25, 2003 07:11 PM                    I am curious, are there any other "Cigar Affectionados" on here besides myself, Leonard, and BalaPlata? -------------------- "There are lion chasers, lion catchers, and lying SOB's."

I have a friend that gives me a few Cuban CAO's and Romeo & Julieta's each month......don't ask, don't tell. The rest of the time, I just go to the Finck Cigar Co. here in San Antonio and pick up some of their Dominican seconds.... Bob Finck Cigar Co.

I am not to choosy on the maker, but I like cigars at least in the "Churchill" size range (or 40+ gauge).

They all like to share what they have. I might be a minority here, but my staple is a #6 Partagas. A mild smoke, extremely well made, and you can finish one in less than half a day. I also like the Royal Jamaican #2 tubos. I don't know how I ever got along without a humidor? I used to keep cigars in the fridge. Affecionado? Well, let me tell ya. Years ago, I used to smoke HavaTampa's on stand, and chew on the wooden tip for an hour after it went out. They are particularly comforting on a long drive. Never had a coyote object, that I recall? I don't think "Affectionados" know what a HavaTampa is? Good hunting. LB -------------------- EL BEE Knows It All and Done It All. Don't piss me off!

Partial to Padron's myself, especially the maduros. Churchill's, most of the time, but keep smaller ones handy for a nice change of pace. Often bring home different ones for variety too, including the Partega's and R&J's mentioned - I like 'em both. Have not got a humidor yet. But I need to. - DAA -------------------- "Oh yeah, they're gonna talk to you, and talk to you, and talk to you about individual freedom, but they see a free individual, it's gonna scare 'em." -- George Hanson, Easy Rider, 1969.

They had a kinda sweet taste to them. DAA, you need to get you a humidor. That will make all the difference in the world. Leonard didn't say it and either did I, but we both buy our cigars here: JR Cigars I like the "La Finca "Joyas"" in a 6 x 50 or 48 and the "Casa Blanca" in the Maduro are excellent.

Might puff on or partially smoke 3-5 per day. Once or twice a week I might stop at the local Tobacco Outlet and buy a good cigar. Mostly smoke them while sipping bourbon and watching the steaks grill. Mostly look for cigars in the 5-7 dollar range. And seldom smoke the same name or brand two times in a row. If I do it's usually an Upmann 2000. They take the bite off the bourbon. Also buy an occasional box of Leon Jimenes Petite. Not sure but I think they are about a 38 ring size. A good quick cigar.

Was that ever a mistake. Yeah, Bruce has the tip of the day, as far as I'm concerned. J&R rocks! Good hunting. LB -------------------- EL BEE Knows It All and Done It All. Don't piss me off!

Pretty good deal and a pretty damn good cigar! Have fun!

I decided I would try the "Punch Double Maduro." So, this past Saturday, I went to my local Cigar Store and bought one. I am here to tell ya, I might as well been smoking "Creosote Rope." That was the worst cigar I ever smoked in my life. I will stick to my "La Finca "Joyas"". -------------------- "There are lion chasers, lion catchers, and lying SOB's."

I gave it all up 30 years ago. Still crave it and could go back in a minute.

Damn good smokes. A customer of mine took me in there once, knows the owner, got me a box for free. Now I go back and buy them everytime I'm in town. - DAA -------------------- "Oh yeah, they're gonna talk to you, and talk to you, and talk to you about individual freedom, but they see a free individual, it's gonna scare 'em." -- George Hanson, Easy Rider, 1969.

My cousin gave me a Cuban a few years ago. I was stoned on it a few minutes later. The next morning I was bumming cigarettes. Took me another 6 months to get off of them again. This Copenhagen is bad enough, I don't need to get close to anything that burns. -------------------- Personally, I carry a gun because I'm too young to die and too old to take an ass kickin'.

It's just a matter of degree. Nicotine is quite readily absorbed even through the external skin. This topic is really making me remember how much I like nicotine. I could go back in a second.
