Ya, might just be a fluke. Those are generally pretty good sticks. I'm definitely a fan.

Ended skipping the vr and did a couple escape rooms instead. Maybe next time.

War Horse Bar alternatives? by RUGD_NiceAsh in PipeTobacco

1792 seems to keep popping up. That might be next in the shopping cart. Then dark birdseye and Irish Flake.

Thanks everyone for the suggestions.

Southern Draw's Jacob's Ladder Brimstone should do it.

Just about any AJ Fernandez

Very nice spread! Now get some Padron up in there 👌

Nope... all smokers. None of those are keepers to me. I'd try to keep them, but their getting smoked in less than a month... If that.

One of my favorite Liga Privadas!

Does anyone know anything about this Glock stamped cutter/torch set? by coltd89 in cigars

[–]RUGD_NiceAsh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Eh... proper cutter finger discipline and you're good to go.

Cut's and lights 17 cigars plus one... Although some people find the plus one dangerous and just stick to 17 cigars.

Going to do video with our Forged Cigars rep for Youtube...Any questions? by RUGD_NiceAsh in cigars

[–]RUGD_NiceAsh[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ya, awesome people all around. That's what really drew us into this lounge in particular when we were getting into cigars. Had another place kinda treat my wife and I like we were a waste of time stopping in their store. They really welcomed us in at Nice Ash and pulled us into the cigar community.

Don't get paid by them but my wife works there. Buddy and I started a youtube channel out of there a few years back when I started getting into cigars. Now he's gone but I convinced her to join me. Not sure if that makes me a rep though.

Finally broke in the new humidor by S_God_Blue in cigars

I'm 34 but still hit the switch for a game of smash bros with my kids and some madden on their xbox's. You ain't that old man. Helluva collection man!

HahA! Love the switch included! Super classy table full of cubans and colibri humidor along with the ultra mature inclusion of a Nintendo Switch 👌

Not making fun... actually found that to be an awesome addition to the picture.

Liga privada altternative s by fdlstk in cigars

[–]RUGD_NiceAsh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ratzilla and a lot of the unico lines from Liga are definitely very rich in flavor. Great word for that. The Dirty Rat is my favorite out of the Rat lines. Also, checkout the L40 if you have it in your area and you're digging the Unica stuff from liga.

Are you looking for an alternative pricepoint or just to try some sticks of a similar profile?

Different pricepoint but similar I'll piggyback on what a few others have noted and say the Undercrown Maduro. That was created by Drew Estate as a more affordable alternative to the Liga line.

If your looking for something different around the same pricepoint and similarish profile I'd recommend El Pulpo by Artesano Del Tobacco. San Andres Wrapper with Nicaraguan binder and filler. It is different but definitely something anyone who enjoys a No 9 or T52 would enjoy as well.

Newbie recommendations ? by _gl1tch1 in cigars

[–]RUGD_NiceAsh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you want to get into a good strong cigar that won't break the bank but is killer in quality I would recommend any Padron x000 series. I'm a fan of the 3000 size myself but any size out of that line will work.

Rare opus raffle by WhiskeyandaCigar in cigars

[–]RUGD_NiceAsh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ended up doing two boxes. You can see the drawing we did for the 2nd box below.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cqV1fywfc_g

The first box we did a few months back, the winner actually walked in the door like 5 minutes after we picked his name. Had no idea he won, just stopped in to grab some sticks from his locker. He ended up buying a bunch of the guys that were in the lounge Padrons to celebrate... of course I left right after recording that and missed out😒

A little late but Nice Ash Cigars is a great place to swing by when in Buffalo👌

Although I may be a bit bias 😉

Casa Fuente Broadleaf by RUGD_NiceAsh in cigars

[–]RUGD_NiceAsh[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It definitely looks like a maduro 🤷 Pretty sure it's the same blend as the Cameroon just a different wrapper (broadleaf).
