  1. Plantation XO 20th Anniversary Barbados Rum is my go to. Absolutely delicious sipping rum & can be found for about $50.
  2. Every eel I ever had ended up eel jerky on the floor.
  3. Great looking tank. Your corals look healthy. I used to have an 85 gallon reef tank & after a move never set it back up. The amount of time required to keep it looking like you do & $$$ is significant. Being a gadget guy I thought it was fun to research & set up all the gear in an attempt to reproduce the ocean environment. Well done.
  4. As usual all over the board on what we like. That is what makes smoking cigars great. Good luck Pres.
  5. Wipe off the mold. Check your humidity level in your long term wineador & adjust if necessary. Put them back in & check in on them every 4 to 6 mos. if your humdity levels are tracking correct let them sleepy sleep for another 3 to 4 years. Smoke 1 at that time & if all is well smoke up.
  6. 5 to 6 a week. The weather in southern California makes it more conducive to smoking. Do half corona & pcs count as half a cigar? If my wife asks they do...
  7. Just like everyone else has suggested put them in the back of your humidor and forget about them for 6 mos to a year. Buy some other boxes of CCs that Rob is telling you that are smoking well young to enjoy what CCs have to offer. Revisit your RASS when they have some age on them & you are likely to see a big improvement. If you still don't like them sell them for what you paid or likely more. There are NCs that fall short of expectations as well. 1 box shouldn't ruin your opinion. It took 10 years for the PL belicosos to hit their sweet spot & the box that I bought many years go pissed me off up until the last year. Now they are excellent. That is just the game we all play with CCs.
  8. This looks interesting. https://www.orendacoffee.com I am waiting for it to release & see some reviews.
  9. Can someone tell me what the current Cohiba El Laugito box code is?
  10. 92... Excellent cigar but still needs to sleep a bit longer. Jealous of your 100.
  11. Good for you. Love Lusis. Those moments are rare & magical. Smoking a LOM Jun 13 HDM DC later tonight hoping I experience the same. Dark, oily & very strong barnyard at cold.
  12. Do yourself a favor & pick up a few plpcs. If you like them buy a box. Smoke half now & age the rest. Very good small format cigar IMO.
  13. This is how it starts & next think you know you are buying 3+ boxes a month. Let the fun begin!
  14. I find the polls interesting and it often shows me where I fall within the bell curve. The robusto poll helps me identify that I tend to smoke too fast and I need to slow down or I will miss the full experience. In addition, sometimes when I am smoking a cigar I will pull up the FOH review and educate my taste buds by attempting to identify the various flavors. There are times your review comments reflect my own experience and other times they don't. That's what makes smoking cigars enjoyable and interesting for me.
  15. Great pics that are thought provoking. Thanks for posting.
  16. I have found that my snoring and it's intensity can be correlated to if am over weight, drinking alcohol excessively, smoking many cigars or retrohaling cigar smoke. I find that using a Vic's Inhaler (infrequently) prior to bed helps open up my air passages along with sleeping on my side.
  17. Not a fan of the RG. However, regardless of my tastes what's the chances this one will be underfilled?
  18. My Father told me "you don't make money on your friends." I also believe in not losing money either unless it is a gift. I tend to buy more than I need anyways and I don't mind selling them a few extra sticks here and there. I am now at a point with them that before I make a purchase I send them an email and see how many they would like & adjust my order accordingly. However, I don't sell them my aged stock or hard to find favorites. If I give those out they are typically gifts.
  19. Happy Birthday Rob. I hope your Birthday is memorable in a good way!
  20. Get a HQ or PSP box of D4s ∨ Lusis. You can't go wrong with either IMO.
  21. I was really looking forward to this release. Such a disappointment.
  22. These would make a great Christmas present to myself... Rob - Can't you give them a BIG push?
  23. USA Partagas - Serie D No. 4 H Upmann - Royal Robusto Bolivar - Royal Corona
