Re: OK, why?
Curious, what are you paying for Umbagogs? I find them for around $6-$9 a stick at my B&M. I like them and they are in my wheelhouse. I am also big into Tatuajes, particularly the Fausto line right...

Re: Cigar Aficianado Top 10 for 2018....
Probably not, but who knows. Rocky does spend a lot of ad money with CA.
I am pretty sure it won't be Fuente, My Father, or Padron; they've all made an appearance on the Top 10 list so far. Tat...

Re: Thoughts on Curivari & RoMa Craft
Curivari is an interesting brand. Nicaragua puros, but done to mimic Cuban styles. For the price point, they are a good starting point.
RoMa Craft are good, but are hit or miss with me.

Re: Any Sirius/XM Gurus?
Yeah, they are nuts. I wonder the same thing when I went with them six years ago. It was cheaper in the long run to do the same deal they offered you ($75). That is the one I went with as well. I...

I do read Halfwheel, at least once a day. I am friends with three of the four writers, and just smoked with Brooks and Charlie this past weekend. With that said, they do have some good reviews, but I...

Re: Cigar Tasting... Wish I was there!
I've done the blind tasting with Jose Blanco several times here in DFW. It is really eye opening and a lot of fun. Even Charlie Minato from Halfwheel got it wrong at one seminar.

Re: Fuente Opus X Help
For me, most younger Opus X are too harsh and need time to rest. I have a large number from 2006-2009, and they are tasting pretty good now. I like the Power Rangers in particular. As for the A's,...
