No. Just no.
They can also contain dirt, hair, trash, grass, floor sweepings.
No

those are the crappy ones. I was referring to the good fakes

RP Burn and crappy beer for sunset.

Life in the jungle...you dont pack it in, you aint got it...only crappy beer is left, but at least Ive still got good cigars (well, and good rum too...so I should quit whinning). Friend is coming in on Saturday from the highlands...bringing good coffee and cocoa nibs...yum.

I keep hearing good things about those. Got one sitting in the smoking humi but it’s been to cold to sit for more than robusto.

I know how y'all feel about infused cigars but this Kuba Kuba really hit the spot. Plus it pairs nicely with a mosaic RyePA I brewed View attachment IMG_4112.jpg

Smoke what you like and like what you smoke. I love IPA but I have a hard time pairing it with a cigar, the flavors usually clash. I don't care for the smell of the acids but I may give that pairing a shot one of these days when I get a wild hair.

I took the day off to brew a milk chocolate Porter that I plan to serve on Christmas Day. I figured it would be a good time to smoke this Man of War Virtue. View attachment IMG_4116.jpg

Patooey! I dont like flavored/infused, but its all about personal preference whether cigars, beer, etc. What I like doesnt matter.

This perdomo habano was decent not great. When it got down to the band I took it off and the wrapper came off with it, so that sucks View attachment IMG_4124.jpg View attachment IMG_4127.jpg

I've liked most everything I've tried from the Acid lineup except the C-Note cigarillos. But, I like the aromatic tobaccos. and the sweetened tip can sometimes hit the spot.

Just be warned. Not all infused and sweetened cigars are equal.

I generally only smoke the Acid and CAO offerings. Love Moontrance and Solfyre from CAO. Yumm.

Bella vanilla is a smooth smoke, I want to try the solfyre’s

Lots of sweet and mild cinnamon. Yumm.

Notes of chocolate, spice, and nuts. I think I found a new favorite View attachment IMG_4131.jpg

[TwistedHops]

Damn. Just perfect

 

[6midgets]

So is Cohiba the most sought after cigars? Are they the "Rolls Royce" of cigars?

By the price, they think they are. But I have had less expensive, and more enjoyable cigars.

 

[HOPME]

Cohiba have a unique flavor profile IMO. Not sure price equals pleasure however. I'm letting my CoRo and Sig VI boxes sit for a looong time. Probably get better ROI than the stock market. haha

 

[BrewinHooligan]

Blend testing something new. Milder than my normal blends and its delivering. Reminds me of a candied walnut with holiday spices and a hint of cream

[BrewinHooligan]

These are a tasty sub $10 stick

This is a stick I had over the weekend. I couldn't post it then because the app didn't work.

I've never had the opportunity to even buy one of those let alone smoke one. How was it?

Great. A sweeter, milder, creamer version of the LP line.

What'd you think? That and the Solfyre are my favorites of the CAO Flavors line.

It was really good. It had hints of coconut and vanilla for the first 2/3. The last 1/3 was spicy and had coco notes. It paired really well with the Left Coast Voodoo American Stout.

[ramonallones]

Cohibas def seem to be the most sought after of the regular production brands/cigars.

Those prices and availability of the behikes is astronomical. Mainly due to supply issues of the media tiempo leaf inside.

But even other vitolas are harder to get now than before, even in Cuba.

As far as tastes, to each his own. Not my favorite marca, but Man when you get a good aged Cohiba, they are heavenly.

 

[6midgets]

Meh

 

[BrewinHooligan]

This is tasty

Curivari in general smokes well over their price point IMO. This one is firing on all cylinders. Had a crack in the head and the foot so I got to grab and smoke off the shelf for free.99. Perks of the shop job
