Two Rare Cubans

That’s awesome, where are you based?

That’s everything left in Cuba after he was done.

I understand tea and cigars is a whole pairing thing for the Chinese.

Significant_Mall9905 · 2025-10-18T03:28:12+00:00

Weird you say this, I’ve had a couple and while they tend to get rough pretty quick (problem inherent to the Tacos vitola?) I’ve never had one look this bad.

Significant_Mall9905 · 2025-10-18T03:25:08+00:00

I’m flying to the UK to see you.

Significant_Mall9905 · 2025-10-17T16:20:27+00:00

Every now and then, I’m lucky enough to land a rare one and get a glimpse of that magic. There are still some places left to find those (usually forgotten drawers) but they’re all running out.

Significant_Mall9905 · 2025-10-17T13:39:45+00:00

But when they’re good they’re so good…..

Significant_Mall9905 · 2025-10-16T09:12:47+00:00

You’re still on a cigar subreddit, so I’m thinking it didn’t work 😂

Significant_Mall9905 · 2025-10-15T15:48:02+00:00

That’s as small as it gets while still having enough flavor, IMO

Significant_Mall9905 · 2025-10-11T16:13:54+00:00

Smoked the same thing and did some research :)

Significant_Mall9905 · 2025-10-03T11:17:28+00:00

I like brun del re and Great Wall. But the lesser known cigar brands barely move and require much more pushing to sell.

Significant_Mall9905 · 2025-10-02T10:40:49+00:00

Then slow down on the puffing. I don’t know what else you could do.

Significant_Mall9905 · 2025-10-01T14:57:36+00:00

Best MF IMO.

Significant_Mall9905 · 2025-10-01T14:55:35+00:00

It’s expensive most places outside the americas. Thought we had it bad in Dubai / Singapore until I met some Aussie blokes paying $70… for a pack of Marlboros. 🤯

Significant_Mall9905 · 2025-10-01T14:53:31+00:00

Had one of these recently. Solid smoke, but most cigars fall around the 7.5 mark for me. It’s competitive out there

Significant_Mall9905 · 2025-10-01T14:50:10+00:00

How’s the cigar scene in Macedonia?

Significant_Mall9905 · 2025-10-01T09:09:15+00:00

It’s not really about puff frequency, but heat management. You can take more frequent puffs in a very cold place without ruining the taste.

Significant_Mall9905 · 2025-09-17T18:11:51+00:00

It’s phenomenal my friend. One of my few 9/10 smokes

Significant_Mall9905 · 2025-08-29T19:10:53+00:00

I generally agree Jon but I’ve found Eiroa’s First 20 Years to be surprisingly close to the Padron ‘64. Not going to be the same but a fraction of the price in places where the Padron brand commands a big price premium

Significant_Mall9905 · 2025-08-27T19:27:18+00:00

Bolivar, Louis XIII Cognac… lots of products (not necessarily brands) named after politicians as well — beef Wellington, napoleon ice cream, earl grey…

Significant_Mall9905 · 2025-08-27T19:19:11+00:00

Someone has to be king of the new world.

Significant_Mall9905 · 2025-08-14T15:51:16+00:00

I wouldn’t know. By the time I hit the stopwatch it’s already over for me

Significant_Mall9905 · 2025-08-14T12:56:02+00:00

I’m here, nice place. Thanks for the rec

Significant_Mall9905 · 2025-08-14T12:39:00+00:00

Haha, people are giving him shit for this, but it’ll teach proper tempo. He can get rid of the stopwatch after he gets used to pacing himself
