What cigar did you smoke today?

[Gyro25]

Dumb question is that actually a Cuban?

I have one in the box waiting...gift from SIL

As others said that looks pretty not real to me. Be very careful, some are made so poorly and even with things like newspapers and banana leaves

New style band

A legit older band (pre 2015)








You can cut off an inch from the foot (side you light) and pick through, but honestly i personally wouldnt light that

Now I just buy a 5-pack of Backwood's Honey Berry or Russian Cream before each round.

I love infused cigars but the prices just keep going up and up.

Well then... How do I tell the gifter not to buy on her next visit?

I agree mine is no way remotely close. Appreciate the wisdom

Just tell her that you enjoyed your last cigar and that you would really appreciate it she would purchase from official La Casa Del Habano. You may tell her that you’re looking for a specific cigar that the LCDH has in stock.

Also, you may want her to pick up an ashtray from Hotel Nacional.

I agree with this. Keep it constructive that the LCDH has the most options (in case they're buying for other people too), dont mention that the guys who sell cigars on the hotel beach are selling fakes lol

Had a couple from Rodriguez in Key West. Love that place and the family that runs it. Order right from them online. Amazing.

 

[Sanzabar]

Montecristo White... still my favorite everyday smoke.

 

[Gyro25]

Just lit an original mason dixon from 2014, found a couple tucked away in the wineador


Crowned heads makes some amazing cigars


Love the way the smoke pours out the foot after after puff

 

[LLIB]

Interesting, buddy of mine suggested that I pick up some Rocky Patel at the Local Liquor store that sells them.
