Just curious if some of you vets could recommend some reading material that you found effective to expand your cigar knowledge?

Playboy.....hahahahaha...should have known that was going to get thrown out there. Any chance you have a smoking jacket for that inflatable partner? 🖐

Any who I have read the Complete Idiots Guide to Cigars, 2nd edition. Didn't know if there was any other suggestions, thank for the insight.

I have a book called Havana Cigars by Min Ron Nee. That has really given me an insight into ISOMs.

I thought you were talking about during #2s...I read back of a shampoo 😰

edit: spelling

Most of the best knowledge that I have found comes from talking to people. I always feel like the magazines and what not are just more interested in sealing you the cigar rather than give you an honest opinion of it, some people may feel different about that but thats just me. Just about every cigar review you read will make it sound like the best cigar you will ever smoke so i say make some friends and talk about what they like and why they like it, to see if you may like it. But if your looking more for info on how to maintain your humi or cuting and lighting or some thing of that nature then the books and magazines are the place to look.

Aside from Perlman's, I've never come across a book I was tempted to buy. Anyone here have the Tobacconist Handbook? Or The Complete Guide to Cigars? Both look intriguing.

I do like Cigar Press and Smoke magazines, but haven't learned much that I didn't learn on this and other forums. Cigar Snob mag; but mostly for the pictures 🙂

Heard a lot about European Cigar Journal, but I've never seen an English edition.

Lastly, search and read TG's posts -- I've probably learned as much from him as any book.
