America's #1 Online Cigar Auction
first, best, biggest!

Nice setup. I love the JdN Antano 1970's and the Camacho Triple Maduro's as well.

I just recently smoked a Saint Luis Rey Serie G Maduro No. 6 and that thing gave me a buzz. And I RARELY get that these days. It's full bodied too. Has a Connecticut broadleaf wrapper and binder. Might be in my top 10 now. Need to smoke another.

What LCDH are you referring to?

My guess would be St Kitts - the LCDH is in the cruise port. St Martin’s is across the island. Could be Grand Cayman - several blocks away and somewhat difficult to find. Not sure about any in Mexico.

I can't pin the flavor on the 1970 Antanos but I know I love them (still new to cigars and since I smoke cigarettes I tend to avoid non-full bodied for the nicotine content). At the same time, I won a bid for some Antano Dark Corojo and I just didn't like the flavor (it has the nic that I like though.)

The Camacho Triple Maduros were my first love before I found the 1970s. I can't remember which list it was on but it was on a top 5 list of highest nicotine cigars.

Cigarbid has spoiled me at this point. I've stopped buying samplers and stick to buying 5 packs (minus the box of Desiel 10ths because they have the kick I need) because very few build full-bodied samplers. When I first got into cigars I bought random samplers and found myself smoking a cigarette in combination with the cigar because a specific cigar was too mellow.

One on my wish list I can't seem to get a bid on is a couple of La Flor Dominicana Double Ligero at the usual under $4 per stick I prefer. I hear they pack a huge punch. I am about ready to drop the cash those sticks demand since I fully understand the Ligero is a more prized and expensive part of the plant.

I love the LFD Double Ligero's (maduro more) but that Saint Luis Rey Series G Maduro had far more kick than the LFD. It may have been b/c it was a 60rg which they call their toro size. I'm a get some of the rothchild's and see if there is a difference.

LFD Chiselitos, those were amazing. Kristof Ligeros. Also a very damned good smoke.

This

Doubling down on "THIS".

I have a bunch of "what was I thinking" cigars taking up space.

I have purged all the infused. No mas of those stinky things. Which were the love of my life for awhile.

So yeah, go slow. We all have time. And if we don't? Well those cigars aren't going to do us any good anyway.

Wise advice.

If you're in doubt just go to the Habanos website to verify the store(s). I've never had a fake from anyone listed on their website. Nice setup!!

you're like uh idiot.

If those are CAO Flavors on the bottom right go ahead and save yourself some anguish give those to the neighbor. I've had my fair share of infused/flavored sticks and those were by far the worse.

Hah, Vitamin N. I like that.



I will definitely add Saint Luis Rey Series G Maduro to my list, thanks for the heads up.



I agree, tastes do change over time. That is why I am keeping the bottom shelf dedicated to mellow/milds. Since I have the 5th shelf empty I could probably just use that for mediumss and not be missing out on any part of the mellow-full body spectrum. One thing I love at the moment is the spiciness of almost all of AJ Fernandez but I am under the impression this spiciness can only be obtained with full bodies?



I love them fresh and have a hard time getting them cheap so they do not last very long. I am tempted to splurge on a box of them even if they are a bit higher cost outside of cigarbid.



Not sure about "infused" but I have avoided these because I have had nothing but disappointment with flavored cigars. It always seems to be sweet flavored tips and dull normal tobacco on the inside. Shortly after getting into cigars I actually took up pipe tobacco as well which is giving me the flavor fix I originally expected out of flavored cigars. I keep my black cavandish in an air tight container inside the humidor so the smell/flavor wont bleed but it will still benefit from the climate control.



I tried that and I cannot find the Cozumel Casa listed so I am considering skipping my visit to that store. Some people have been hyping a certain Monte site that has me tempted.



Thank you sir. I like to think so.



They indeed are and they were bought with the intention of giving away. I tried one of them and it was just "ok" (one last attempt at trying a flavored/infused before I give up on them for good). The cruise I am going on in February is actually paid for by the small company I work for and our billing manager wanted to try some cigars and I didn't want to overwhelm them with my full-bodied preferences.



I am thinking it will be but who knows. It has only been a year now so I am going to be buying sampler packs for quite some time. Once I get out of the sample phase I can replace sections with boxes of things I like. I also tend to only smoke a couple of cigars per week since I want to get my collection together. Once it's something resembling full I will probably smoke more often.

Prestige Imports Remington Lite. It's the less for lack of a better word elegant version of their Remington Humidor that has a nicer more antique look to the wood (and costs $200 more than the lite).
