jerseyjay Posted April 19, 2011 Posted April 19, 2011 CigarPhoto is coming back from a well deserved vacation in exotic and pleasantly warm – Jamaica. There is nothing more relaxing than laying on the beach, listening to the ocean, sipping on delicious caribbean rum and puffing on nutritious cigars. Simply … bliss. My trusty travel humidor was once again recharged with quality ‘ammunition’ ranging from classic Partagas, Montecristos, Padrons, Davidoffs, to latest releases from Tatuaje & Viaje. Although the hotel had some indoor smoking restrictions, I was able to freely enjoy few stogies on the ocean-front-view 4th floor balcony. For those who had enough of water and/or sun, hotel had a cigar lounge with a decent cuban humidor and a bar. One was able to find your standard Cohibas, Montes, RyJs, H. Upmanns, etc. All bases covered ! Additional photographs can be viewed on cigarphoto.net . .
cigcars Posted April 19, 2011 Posted April 19, 2011 *Oh my! Did you try any Jamaican tobacco cigars? I special ordered some from Barrington Intl. Ltd. called, "Pride of Jamaica" which contains Jamaican and Cameroon tobacco, spritzed in with some Connecticut and Mexican...yeah, I know. But the cigar was fantabulous! Adducci Cigars also features Jamaican tobacco. Hope I'm not violating the "source" rules here. These are just rarely found anymore Jamaican cigars and the brands in existence, just like Arturo Fuente, Nick Perdomo, etc., etc. and their Nicaraguan and Dominican cigars.
Tarks Posted April 19, 2011 Posted April 19, 2011 Is that the Iberostar Grand Rose Hall? The smoking lounge looks familiar. I was there in Jan. Beautiful resort. Great pics! Thanks for sharing.
jerseyjay Posted April 20, 2011 Author Posted April 20, 2011 *Oh my! Did you try any Jamaican tobacco cigars? Nope. I actually didn't try any Jamaican cigars. Based on your description, I missed a lot, huh. Next time. Is that the Iberostar Grand Rose Hall? The smoking lounge looks familiar. I was there in Jan. Beautiful resort. Great pics! Thanks for sharing. Thanks for your feedback ! Rose Hall Suites. Grand looked beautiful as well but I was told that there was less activities and no kids allowed. Beaches & Spa on the other hand was 'out-of-control' in a negative way. I guess we hit a happy medium.

I had a good chuckle looking through the humi.
