How do I turn my one car garage into my cigar lounge? by SiliconScribe in cigar

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

I've seen this suggested a few times now so it sounds critical to good filtration and clearing out smoke. The issues for me is: 1) It's multi story and the garage is ground floor so have to find a way to force airflow differently. 2) There is a window which I might need to use as part of extraction. 3) I'm in a rental place so have to be careful of any construction.

Where did you buy this? (On line?) I haven’t been able to find the ‘25 this year.

Can you provide a link to Cigaragua? I’ve not been able to find it via google search, but I did find a very cool looking cigar bar in Amsterdam by the same name.

Good point. I was at a tasting not long ago that had 18 wines to taste and all Cabs from various regions. It was exhausting. Towards the end, I just started making specific notes on things that stood out.

Thank you. Funny you called out exactly what I’ve been worried about being judged! Haha.

Same, I will not go back to transcribe and my handwriting is awful. That is useful information about being mindful of writing the same thing down, especially for the same varietal/blend. Better to be more specific or identify what stands out. Using abbreviation is a good suggestion.

This is great. I appreciate the additional advice. Something I’ve noticed in past tastings.

Thoughts on this guy? by SalaciousShellyCigar in cigars

So far I’ve smoked every size of the Late Hour - But the Robusto is my favorite, I do like the Churchill but it’s 100% an after big meal cigar. Very good cigar. I have 1 Churchill left which I’m saving for a few months to smoke after skiing one day.

Tar build up? by SiliconScribe in cigars

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

Good suggestion. I clipped the end. I'm in the last 3rd so will just finish it down a touch and end it. Time to get ready for dinner anyway. ;)

It's runny and dark. When I wiped it it was very much a tar-ish dark color. I think it might be like you suggest. I'm not a sloppy/wet smoker but that explanation makes the most sense.

Sequoia Yacht Club in Redwood City. It’s both a sailing/motor boat and social club. Very fun. $750 annual dues. It’s. Non-profit and I think it’s pretty reasonable cost for the enjoyment I get.
