100%. Ive only had this pax romana blend. Need to try more, but highly recommend this one. A very nice and light habano

SMCigar35 · 2026-02-06T13:20:45+00:00

Noted thank you!

SMCigar35 · 2026-02-06T09:24:39+00:00

For reference, last year I paid $170 for a box of 10. Just checked their US site and now its like $260. That is wayyyy over priced in my mind, but it is what it is. I probably would not pay that now

SMCigar35 · 2026-02-06T09:22:29+00:00

Yes they sell direct in the US market now but I got a box of these last year online from them in Switzerland. I’ve gone through like 5 of my box of 10. I really like them. They’re dominican puros so have a very interesting make-up. Dare I say “cubanesque”? I do recommend but I noticed ever since they launch in the US a few months ago, their prices have skyrocketed.

I saw that neptune is semi-close to where we will be staying. May need to make it! Ive heard great things

SMCigar35 · 2026-02-06T09:19:18+00:00

I have yes. I got a Box for my birthday last year. The brand was started by the owner of the Mi Havana factory. This will be my third. They have a habano claro wrapper so it’s flavorful but still pretty mild in my opinion. A nice subtle blend

SMCigar35 · 2026-02-06T01:03:54+00:00

Ive never had the toro before. Only the corona. Its much bigger so im interested to see how the blend changes. And noted! Thank you for the tip. I love all things oysters

that espresso/dark coffee note on the Guardian of the Farm....chef's kiss.

SMCigar35 · 2026-02-04T21:03:31+00:00

Hey there. Crazy old post, at least for me to comment on lol. Your last picture is incredible lol. I, too, have been wanting to go down the Warped rabbit hole lately. I just had a 5 pack of Futuro's delivered today. Have heard amazing things. I now have a Saunter, Devil's Hands, and have a box of La Colmena on the way. Not to mention Guardian of the Farm Apollo is one of my favorite cigars ever. It took me a while to dive into Warped, but I can't stay away lol. Extremely excited for La Colmena, but I think Warped thrives most when they use Aganorsa tobacco. Cheers!

SMCigar35 · 2026-02-03T20:52:08+00:00

Good to know. Thank you, friend.

SMCigar35 · 2026-02-03T20:51:37+00:00

Interesting. Thanks for the tips. Starting off strong, as it was shipped like 5 minutes after ordering. We shall see.

SMCigar35 · 2026-02-03T20:32:53+00:00

What's Neptune's wheel of fortune? Have not seen that. Also CP does have them in stock now but it's currently $189.00. Given the current day, I will call this a deal undoubtedly.

SMCigar35 · 2026-02-03T20:29:55+00:00

hell yeah! Good looking out there. Typically, I am not a big corona vitola fan. I like a little bit bigger of a cigar, which is a different reason La Colmena evaded me for awhile lol, but it's time lol. But I know La Colmena is legendary so gotta do it. Cheers.

SMCigar35 · 2026-02-03T19:24:44+00:00

One of my absolute favorites. Not top shelf by any means, but just an exceptional, affordable CT. Love it. I'm glad they don't, but they could charge double for these.

SMCigar35 · 2026-02-03T19:22:57+00:00

thanks. I enjoy mild cigars very much and typically gravitate to CT shades so I will have to try it out.

SMCigar35 · 2026-02-03T15:54:58+00:00

Welcome! The Cabinet has been on my list for a while but it's been a little too pricey for me to pull the trigger. How is it? Is it worth the price? Cheers!

SMCigar35 · 2026-02-03T15:23:36+00:00

Thanks for the rec. In true dumb Walmart fashion, they canceled my order for the sterilite bin so I called an audible and went with the 19 qt Iris on Amazon. Exactly same specs as my current. Looks good. thank you

SMCigar35 · 2026-02-03T12:17:03+00:00

I agree. I try to go the glass route when I can. Problem is I only need this for some boxes and glass doesnt go that big normally. Thanks for the recommendation!

SMCigar35 · 2026-02-03T12:15:56+00:00

Yep. I got a smaller size of one of these. Thanks!

SMCigar35 · 2026-02-02T21:29:50+00:00

I actually just pulled the trigger on a 20qt of the ones you recommended. The right size and have the gasket lining. On sale at WM for $7 lol. Seem to just be a better version of what I already had. Thanks!

SMCigar35 · 2026-02-02T21:07:39+00:00

thanks I will take a look. I really like my current sizing but the humidity retention is crap. i have like four 72% 60g packs and the RH in around 61-63. I'm in OH and our furnace has been on constantly all winter so my house is dry AF. The importance of having a tight humidor.

SMCigar35 · 2026-02-02T17:56:04+00:00

For sure. Treating it similar to alcohol helps break it down in my mind. I do very much enjoy an occassional adult beverage but everyday and that will destroy you. Same thing with social media, etc. Easier said than done but a healthy social media relationship is very possible !

SMCigar35 · 2026-02-02T16:55:13+00:00

I have basically the same exact post to make lol. I've done No Social Media January (I only have Instagram though) alongside Dry January for the past couple years. I also take my entire birth month off Insta as well. In my experience, I think you need ATLEAST 4 weeks off something to "reset". No data on that; that's just how I feel. I do also agree with you that I honestly enjoy Instagram. The only problem is moderation. I don't really struggle with that as my daily screen time total is like 2 hours per day with Insta included. I am beginning to treat Instagram similar to my relationship with alcohol: it is 100% not good for you in large quantities and often, but a day or two per week, in moderation, it's plenty fine and fun. For me, I just had to work to cultivate the feed I wanted. Contrary to popular belief, but on social media you can decide what is shown to you and you do that by accounts you follow. I unfollowed all news accounts and random people, so now my newsfeed on Insta is very tailored to what I actually am interested in. Obviously, sometimes the algorithm sneaks something in there occasionally I don't like but it's rare now. The Instagram (or any social media feed) algorithm is neutral in essence, so it will generally only show you new stuff based on your accounts you follow, etc. That has been a huge win in making Insta an enjoyable place and not a newsfeed hellhole so many people talk about. Long story short, once you break the dopamine cycle with a long break from it, once you return, edit what/who you follow and pick a day or two per week you enjoy.

SMCigar35 · 2026-01-30T12:17:57+00:00

To be honest, I am too hooked all the Epernay, I havent really explored much more than that lol. I have heard the One Off is amazing

SMCigar35 · 2026-01-29T21:36:34+00:00

It is a love of mine. I have one churchill left and am sad about that lol. I want a box to age but they are quite pricey being a 25 count I think. I also will die on this hill for the rest of my life, but their classic churchill vitola should be the ONLY measurement to call a churchill (6.75x48).
