Hey Blake, Good to see you on here!

Re: First cigar in a year
 

Check out the new Oliva Connecticut Reserve. Great mild smoke, buttery and creamy profile with a little Nicaraguan kick.

Might give'em a try, if I remember right the Cabaiguan was one of the best cubans that Fredster ever had...:fu

Re: First cigar in a year
 

I would if i had one... I might see about picking one up soon. It's not the best cigar smoking weather though, that's for sure. Nice to see you again too sir.

A chisel would put you back into that arena where you quit in the first place,,,lol
Same with this one,,as good as they are I would steer clear until you get back into the routine.
Remember what you used to smoke and then take it one step down from there and come back easy,,,then the Chisel and a good stiff drink with a soft chair.:ss

Re: First cigar in a year
 

I'd go with the Cabaiguan as was recommended earlier. Great mild-medium smoke.

Re: First cigar in a year
 

What did you like before? I would probably go to a Hemingway, any size, or the aforementioned RyJ Habana Reserve - that's a great budget smoke.

Re: First cigar in a year
 

good hearing from you as well thurmy

Re: First cigar in a year
 

Well, I had an avo le 08 last friday. It was delicious. I quickly remembered why I don't smoke anymore though. Gosh, cigars are a luxury and are pricey for a college student!

Either way, it was a great cigar.

Blake is off the wagon! :D

PM me your address, I have a few things I'd like to share with an "old friend" :tu

Oh gosh, I dunno how wise that is. I don't think I can afford being pushed down the slope again. I'm humbled by your generosity... Oh man. Your offer is one I'll have to think about. I don't want to turn down your generosity but don't want to risk being shoved down this slope again that I worked so hard to climb back up.

(Everyone here though would probably agree that once your pushed down the slope there's no use in trying to climb back up it though.)

Re: First cigar in a year
 

Hello,I was thinking,based on your input on one of my recent thread's that you should send me your address so I could help you remember the slope, and how fun it can be.:fu

Re: First cigar in a year
 

Uh oh....looks like someone is going to be getting the **** bombed out of him!

Re: First cigar in a year
 

Couldn't agree more. Both are very nice cigars.:tpd:

Re: First cigar in a year
 

well it's a good thing my OLD addy is the one in the rolodex and not my new one. (no this isn't a joke so DON'T send anything there. I'd hate for sticks to go there and have them disappear)

Re: First cigar in a year
 

Well, I smoked another cigar today. Bizarre right?
I pulled a rocky patel 92 vintage out of my humi that had been sitting there for a few years. It was alright. Nothing too special honestly.

But, a cigar is a cigar! And the fact that I smoked another one is a bit disconcerting... (well maybe not for you guys)

Here comes the slope. (If I stay away from CC's I should be fine)

Re: First cigar in a year
 

Good to see your posts again!
