Spent all day bent over with a torch cutting a giant fucking beam in half. Wasn't going fast enough so I picked up a ten inch saw with a carbide blade on it instead. My back feels like I'm going into labor atm. Iso a epidural shot

Ordered a travel Humidor today because my desk top is out of space... and ended up ordering enough to fill the new one up too.  FML.  Anyone else enjoy cigars?  I mean real premium cigars, not swisher sweets or black and milds, or even the bottom 75% of handmades.  Gurhka, CAO, Drew Estate, 5 Vegas, Macanudo, etc.  I have never smoked a cigarette and cigars are completely different. It's about the journey of experimenting with different brands, blends, sizes, and cuts to figure out what your perfect smoke is.  Much like enjoying really good complex liquor.  I have a bottle of Breckenridge bourbon ready to crack open when the cigar order comes in.  The woman does Yoga, I sip good whiskey and burn Connecticut shade leaf. It's a great way to relax.


I also smoke cigars, I have about 20 or so in my humidor right now, mostly Romeo y Julieta and Drew Estate, a couple 15 year old Cohibas too.

Are the Drew Estate you have Acids? I love those, the spice they put on those is amazing.

I have a few Kuba Kuba in there and maybe an Opulence 3?

I love the Kuba Kuba. Im not a purist so in my opinion infused and flavored cigars aren't the anti christ the purists claim they are.

The whole cuban thing is mostly a gimmick. Some of the best tobacco in the world is grown in conecticut.

It's gimmicky in the US because it's illegal. Just like moonshine... the fact that you aren't supposed to have makes it seem special. Im not saying cubans can't make good cigars. If you do some reading you will see that many of the worlds top cigar makers were exiled from cuba shortly after the embargo. Cuban seed had been planted in connecticut nearly 2 centuries earlier. The Dominican Republic and Nicaragua also produce some of the best fillers in the world. I like Cohibas no matter how hard they are to come by but cuban doesn't mean better. Only 2 of the top 10 cigarw out of 700 blind tested by cigar aficionado were from Cuba. The #1 was the Flor de las Antillas Toro which is nicaraguan. As is usually the case the family responsible for making it left Cuba for better commercial opportunities years ago.

Do yourself a favor and order off Cigars International next time. Most $20 sticks in retail stores are $5-8 from them.
