Popular Post Lant63 Posted December 13, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted December 13, 2019 Aside from the Nudies which I know little about, the rest of the NCs posted on this page are of the bold variety? Wow. The rg on these cigars also looks hefty but photos can fool you.I really can't comment on what others are purchasing, however part of the reason I have started smoking more NC is due to the discontinuation of some of my favorite Cuban cigars. Many Coronas, lonsdales, churchills that I enjoyed are gone and the ones that are left are very expensive. Cohiba Esplendido-- and Lancero 675 and 525 respectively, Sir Winston $525, fundadores 425, Monte especiales 400. I can get a good to great NC Lancero for ten bucks. Dont get me wrong I still have boxes of all the Cubans mentioned. But, the advent of NC companies making solid small ring guage cigars at competitive prices has drawn me back in.

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk And I only discovered the relative ease of purchasing CCs about 3 years ago when I grew unhappy with the ever increasing girth and length of cigars hitting the USA market to the point where I was near hanging it up. Granted, the taste of Cuba is expensive but I generally keep my regular parameters in the $10 per stick range. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuzz Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 This thread has had quite a lot of Moderator activity over the last few weeks, with a few vacations freely handed out. Let me just put this here to remind everyone: Rule 4 No discussion of Shipping Shipping is not discussed on the forum. It is a core rule and has been so since inception and always understood by members. Posts regarding shipping regardless whom it is about will be deleted immediately. Mods will enforce. Govt Nazi's around the world need no help. Contact your supplier directly to answer any questions or issues regarding shipping. Rule 5 No Discussion of Sources and Prices There are thousands of online suppliers of cigars around the world. Some good, some average some thieves. This board does not discuss any. This country has some of the most stringent defamation laws in the world and I am liable for any law suits that come from threads such as "**** sent me fakes" You are intelligent people. Use the PM feature/e-mail me if you have any questions. Where I come across flagrant sellers of fakes I may post it. However it will be a post coming from myself based on 100% certainty. In relation to prices from sources this can always be done through internal PM between members which the forum supports. It will not occur on the Forum or Shoutbox. The only exception is when Regionals or specific country cigars are released. These are priced by distributors and are uniform and general discussion of the price is permitted but not a specific vendor. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Habana Mike Posted December 20, 2019 Share Posted December 20, 2019 (edited) Haven't purchased a box of NC for quite some time. Picked up an Undercrown Shade Robusto at the …….. last night. Perfect camouflage for the CoRo I brought to smoke Also picked up an LFD Andalusian Bull to see what they're about. Probably going to be way strong for my current tastes from what I've heard. May have played well when I was on my Opus/VSG/Chisel Double Ligero kick a few years back....

The Padron Series benefits from some years of rest. You'll find that they taste similar to the higher end Padrons once aged. The rest are ready to rock! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Skypilot Posted December 29, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted December 29, 2019 I was able to hunt down the tyrannical Buc. I only sought it out because of the video review on here and the corona that was reviewed was sold out in a lot of places. The ones in the black packaging are Habano wrapper vs Connecticut on the singles. also a few warped sticks to round it out. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good but non-descript. But that was ROTT and I don't like bigger than 54rg usually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Connecticut wrappers are corona sized and the Habano wrapper is a toro I believe. I expect more from the corona but enjoy comparing different types of wrappers and the habano only comes in that large size so I figured what the hell let’s check them out. My nudies have arrived as well and man do those look good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
