Caboz28

I got beetles one time.....after that mess, I freeze everything.

For over 10 years I never did it, then I got beetles once about 3 years ago. Now everything goes through the freezer before getting into my humidor. To be fair though, I'm pretty sure my little "friends" came from a box of NC's I had been gifted.

I've been to the one in Aruba a few times as well. I'd agree with the earlier post. Small, decent shop, but the condition of their stock is pretty lacking.

While I've had some that I loved all the way through, with no real difference, I do prefer the 1st third generally.

Good ole' big brother.....sigh

Well, I drink a lot of Cabo Wabo tequila and used to drive a Z28, so it was a pretty simple combination of the 2.

The only news I watch in the AM is NFL network

I'll be lighting up a Partagas P1

I'm using a Xikar Trezo.....nice wide flame......but watch your eyebrows/mustache!!!

For me, My humi started out being mostly filled with NC's (go figure) but it is more and more getting filled with CC's. I used to purchase only boxes of NC's (for the price break) but have recently started picking up more samplers and only getting boxes of CC's. I agree that the complexity of CC's is (without question) more enticing and eloquent (for lack for lack of a better word) than any NC I've ever smoked, but sometimes I do find myself wanting that "kick in the face" of pepper, leather, and nicotine that you get from NC's. Most of the NC's I smoke are Tatuaje's (all flavors profiles), some Gurkha's (don't hate me....I do like some of them ), and Illusions. This is after years of trying many different NC's. So for my two cents.....NC's can be good, depending on what you're looking for and your taste at the time, and (for me anyway) I'm just enjoying trying the many CC's I have yet to experience.

Hmmm, that's gotta be a tasty smoke. Guess it's time to sell the car to stock up on some

Ok, that was just hillarious....this is great

Welcome Dave!! Good to see a familiar face (from CA....small world eh? ). I just joined over here a couple days ago and have already met a ton of great people!!

Hi there and welcome aboard!!

Great information. Thanks a bunch for posting it up for us!!

Those are awefully purty ..... might just have to pick up one or two...hmmm

Thanks for the warm welcome guys!!

Haha!! Yeah, I'm in Severna Park, MD....basically right in between Baltimore and Annapolis.

Thanks Star!! I totally agree. I'm just lookin to make some new friends, share information, and enjoy some camaraderie with fellow cigar enthusiasts. Wait, that sounds alot like "just hang out and chill with some cool folks".....that works too .

Hi all!! While I'm new to this site, I'm not quite "new" to cigars . Been enjoying for about 10 years now. My Current fav's (well, from the cool little island just south of Florida) are: Partagas Series P No.2, Partagas Shorts, Bolivar Belicoso Finos, H Uppman Magnum 50's. Glad to be here
