my very first pineapple

Do not let this heart go to waste as you can make awesome burgers from the banana heart. https://www.kawalingpinoy.com/banana-heart-burger/ -
Love the packaging
Andy04 replied to El Presidente's topic in Cigars Discussion Forum "the water hole"
Vodka (and all distilled alcohols) is gluten free unless there are additives or flavorings that contain gluten. -

I love the fact that they need to announce that its gluten free. -
Tipping....should they be shared?
Andy04 replied to El Presidente's topic in Cigars Discussion Forum "the water hole"
Do you still tip anything on top of the 18%? -
Tipping....should they be shared?
Andy04 replied to El Presidente's topic in Cigars Discussion Forum "the water hole"
A serious question... from somebody that lives in a world where tipping is a foreign concept. For places that automatically add a gratuity to bills (i.e, parties of 6 or more will have an 18% gratuity automatically added to the bill), does this 18% count as a tip? Or do you still put your 15-25% down on top of whatever the total bill comes to? -

Indonesian Tobacco

Next time you are there just walk into any Hero Supermarket and they will sell Dos hermanos in robusto and toro sizes. Very decent and remarkably cheap long filler puros. -
Your favourite Vegas Show experience?
Andy04 replied to El Presidente's topic in Cigars Discussion Forum "the water hole"
In terms of Vegas show experience... its very hard to beat the experience at either Saphire or the Spearmint Rhino at 3am on a Monday night. -
This is for a pineapple.

A little side hobby I've been working on.
Andy04 replied to NW_Oregon's topic in Cigars Discussion Forum "the water hole"
Skinny sticks are much harder to roll, and more expensive due to the proportion of wrapper compared to binder and filler leaf. I find skinny sticks require a minimum of a month between rolling and smoking, as the humidity of the damp tobacco tends to cause the plugging in skinnier sticks compared to thicker sticks that permit more air flow. -

They look great. I doubt the wrapper leaf on the right is shade grown, most likely sun grown, hence the JLP appearance. -
I quite like the Tabacalera Coronas. If you have a colleague heading up there, tell them to find downtown, not at the airport. Downtown you will pick up a box for say USD60. Airport prices will be tripple that.

Hunters & Frankau House Reserve Series 1790
Andy04 replied to Edicion's topic in Cigars Discussion Forum "the water hole"
Can somebody please explain to my why people would purchase something like that? Are you supposed to smoke the cigars and be left with a lovely but empty humidor? Or are you supposed to just look at it and wonder about each stick? I have always purchased with the sole intention of consuming and sharing. It is a beautiful piece, but I just don't get it.- 12 replies

SAN CRISTÓBAL DE LA HABANA HARIMAU MALAYA

Now its comparable to an English RE but plastering the packaging with a MU logo! -
SAN CRISTÓBAL DE LA HABANA HARIMAU MALAYA
Andy04 replied to El Presidente's topic in Cigars Discussion Forum "the water hole"
When Malaysia was formed in 1963, it comprised of an agreement between four equal partners: 1) Singapore 2) Malaya 3) Sabah 4) Sarawak. Singapore has obviously pulled out, leaving three equal partners. So PCC had created a Malaysian RE, but dedicated to only one partner. An equivalent would be having a Hong Kong RE but dedicating it to Shenzhen. -

Andy04 replied to El Presidente's topic in Cigars Discussion Forum "the water hole"
It means Malayan Tiger, not Malaysian Tiger. By not considering the political landscape of Malaysia, PCC has just pissed off 2/3rds of the country. -
What would you pair a Behike with?
Andy04 replied to Edicion's topic in Cigars Discussion Forum "the water hole"
A second mortgage -
My first ever cigar purchase was a pair of Siglo IV's. Bought from a shop in downtown Perth, Western Australia. It was in 2004. The pair cost AUD $104. I thought that is was an expensive hobby at the time. Now I regret not stocking up.

The term barracking has a vastly different meaning depending upon where you are raised. Whereas in the UK, barracking generally means spectators hurling abuse at a team/individual. The song "Posh Spice is a Slapper" is a prime example. Completely unacceptable. In Australia, Barracking is cheering or giving support, identical to the US term of "rooting". I barrack for the might Collingwood Magpies. Yelling "Carn' the pies". Completely acceptable. Australia is very lucky to not have adopted the UK's style of degrading banter at sporting events.

The elusive '100 point' cigar
Andy04 replied to Cigar Surgeon's topic in Cigars Discussion Forum "the water hole"
The whole points system is flawed. IMO, a "100" point cigar mean that it is the greatest cigar ever smoked, hence every cigar cossumed from that moment going forward will be inferior.
