Don't know much about cigars but I like one occasionally. Picked up a brand in the cigar store called Avo Uvezian. Taste pretty good but I'm no connoisseur. Any body got an opinon on this brand.

P.S. One of my favorite scenes in a movie was in Papillion when the leper with a cigar wedged between his crusty fingers asked Steve Mcqueen if he likes cigars and a nervous McQueen answers "when I can get em" and the leper says "try mine". McQueen takes it and takes a couple of nervous puffs and the leper says "how did you know I had dry leprosy" and McQueen says "I didn't".

4-5/year, nit while playing poker.

I like to try different brands, but my favorites include:

Cuaba Executivos - an awesome smoke!
Cohiba Siglo Series (Havana) (any of them)
Fuente Opus X No.2

Normally Havanas with Partagas Shorts and Monte #4's as a staple. But I also have a bunch of Opus and Padrons that I smoke on the golf course.

Anyone else besides me think it sucks that playing poker in a smoking room someone can be blowing cig smoke in your face but your not allowed to have a cigar??

Hey! Neat topic. Yes, we like cigars. Here pics to prove it [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img] dbl-clik on the images and they get bigger.
Cigars at Bellagio The 2nd pic without the cigars, you can see how red my face is. Too many martinis!

I have anywhere from 0-5 per week. She occasionally will have one with me, which proves that wives are trainable when provided with the right leadership [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

For Cuban cigars I like: [1] PSD4 [2] Cohiba Esplendido.

For non-Cuban I like: [1] Padron Anniversary 1964 [2] Onyx Reserve [3] Butera.

The wife likes the Buteras and the Onyx Reserves. She's a pretty good poker player too, but never sits at my table.

Cheers,

Mike

Since I was a kid, I've wanted to visit Colombia. Now I know why.

Also the Padron x,000 series are a very good smoke for under $5.

Cheers,
