Default Culebras: Eye Candy

A litte bit of eye candy for the new board...

I don't think I've seen a pic of the Illusione 23 Culebras box out there yet...


And of course the Partagas...


Enjoy!

The Partagas Culebra is a phenomenally good smoke IMHO. Hal (hk3) once smoked all three at once, but I don't believe that's the intent.

The Illusione 23, on the other hand, was not a great experience for me -- and I truly dig nearly the whole Illusione line.

I smoked one of those Partagas in a casino. I got some really strange looks from people. Good smoke by the way...

So does a person "unravel" them into 3 cigars before smoking?

That is typically how one would smoke them. But I've heard of one crazy mofo who smoked all three at one. It had been reviewed at the board that shall no longer be named.

Found an LFD Culebras pic...

If they're as strong as the Illusione 68, I'd have to be hospitalized if I tried that!

For the hardcore, no. I've smoked several of the Partagas all together. Yumm!

Yes, they are three cigars. Best shared with two friends.

You betcha... They are meant to be smoked one at a time. They come apart much easier than you'd imagine.

Best shared with two close friends, IMHO.

Agreed, I can't remember a time I've seen someone break one out and keep it to them selves.

Funny you ask... so I go to the store and ask to buy a box of Partagas. I ask how many are in a box, she says 3. I say I'll take them. Next time I go to the store, she tells me that she got in big trouble because there are actually 9 cigars in the Partagas box (duh). But she told her boss she didn't realize people take them apart, she thought they smoke all three at once.

Anyone try it? Sounds silly, but I bet someone did it.
