What cigar is this?

Heavy_d · 12-30-2013, 03:06 PM

Ok my more knowledgable BOTLs and SOTLs, help me out. What cigar is this? A local B&M was giving them away free to patrons for Christmas, so I'm not really expecting much from it, but I'd still like to know what I'm smoking. One side of the band says "Handmade", the other side says "Imported". I've searched both the web and the archives and so far nothing. So to paraphrase Star Wars, "Help me Cigar Asylum, you're my only hope."

wrapper could be broadleaf,probably a bundle stick.why not ask your B&M?

search shows a chain in Colorado..........

Heavy_d · 12-30-2013, 03:18 PM

The B&M is about 2.5 hours away. Unfortunately that's my closest real cigar shop. I got it while visiting family for the holidays, and didn't think to ask the proprietor while there, assuming I could find the info online. I may have to give him a call if nothing else.

Not sure, but think it is one of those that you cut the end and then light the other and smoke.

Could be wrong though.

Looks like a Stag.

I am guessing they are imported.

Might even be handmade.

It has a band, I'm fairly certain.

Lots of ballbusting in here

Derek, what you have there is a Handmade, Imported Stag cigar

NCRadioMan · 12-30-2013, 03:39 PM

I brought a Stag to the Punishment Puff Puff Pass @ The Shack a few years ago and it scored as one of the worst cigars, EVER!

But taste is subjective.

Well, you learn something new every day. It's not always something GOOD, but it's something anyway.

We didn't mean to bust your 'nads, brother, but you said about all that was needed in your initial post. You didn't know what it was, and you didn't expect much. Hell, we've almost all been there a time or three, handed some mystery stick, hoping for a hidden gem yet fully expecting a total dog-rocket. Me, I just hope it's smokable for you, and doesn't destroy your palate for a week or so.

Heavy_d · 12-30-2013, 04:37 PM

Alright, alright, enough from the peanut gallery.

Seriously though, I walked into that.

Thanks.

I didn't think of adding the terms handmade and imported to my google query. Had a duh moment.

MrClean · 12-30-2013, 04:38 PM

So how was it Derek?

Just adding to the peanut gallery. I think that stick will be more useful as kindling.

It wasn't the worst cigar I've ever had (that honor belongs to a Free Cuba Churchill), but it was pretty bad. Oh well, at least I didn't pay for it.

So are you saying you need a replacement?

Nope. The humi is full minus one space, and I've got a 5er coming from C-Bid, so I'll actually be overstocked!
