Cigar help

stillbr · #1 08-16-2005, 09:39 PM

So I want to buy a humidor and some cigars. I enjoy smoking cigars, but have NO clue as to what I should look for. All I know is I like mild/medium. Nothing too strong. I would like to spend no more than $200 for the humidor and cigars.

I like Cohiba.

Personally, I find those fuente's far away from mild. H Upman vintage cameroons (churchill) are my fav and the perfect amount of mild. Make sure you talk to someone before you try to cure your humidor, its kind of a pain in the ass. If you PM me, we can work out a deal, and Ill get you a contact of mine that has just about any cohiba you can get.

Avo #6 are my personal favorites. For starters any Macanudo is good because they blend vintages making for consistent taste in their cigars.

i like a larger cigar like a churchill as well.

The H. Upman Vintage is a very good cigar for the price. I got myself a box of these last year. They should come out to about $4 a stick.

How good are the prices on thecigarstore.com ? Say, compared to duty free? Do they ship to the UK?

BTW I like medium-big length cigars that are fat, and am looking for something with a nice flavour. Any recommendations? I have had a few Romeo and Juliets and didnt care for them, had an Upmanns which I liked, had a few non-cuban cigars which I didn't like.......

I honestly can say, Ive had hundreds of cigars, and the H Upman vintage cameroons, are the most simalar to a decent cohiba a la the 2004 anniversie sublime edition. They are pretty much all I smoke, when i run out of cubans. Even hte padron 1926 aniv, which kipin turned me on to (at 29$ a pop) I didnt like as much.

I don't know. I Googled Fuente and found the site. I wasn't really recommending the site as much as I was recommending what he would need. I have never actually purchased anything there.
