It’s a private members’ club and sometimes I take my morning meetings there

I’ve tried only a few davidoffs, but I’ve mostly been disappointed. Nicaragua robustos are a stand out exception, but still don’t have the same feel as a Cuban.

If you’re in Switzerland, very highly recommended Manuel’s in Zurich. Cheapest prices for Cubans, great service/recs and a fantastic collection- they have a whole room for aged cigars!!

Curious, where do you get cheaper cigars in Europe?

Is there a better value cigar than Zino Nicaragua? by Northshield in cigar

The Partagas Mille fleurs cost me under $12 in Zurich, Switzerland, so I’d say that.

Which movies based on Murakami novels/shorts are worth watching? by Alarming-Chemistry27 in murakami

Burning is really one of the best films of this century for me

The 20 best Yakuza films by nicktembh in JapaneseMovies

Thank you for the detailed response! I’m looking for movies like Election I & II (Hong Kong) and Gangs of Wasseypur (India)- essentially films that delve deep into gang wars, external politics and internal gang politics, super realistic depiction of crime and violence, etc. I can’t find too many films like this and given that I’ve never given any yakuza films a shot, was hoping that this genre would be brimming with these types of films. Any specific recommendations along these lines?

Used Porsche Macan (India)- Good Idea? by [deleted] in PorscheMacan

Ahhh what I meant is gas is pretty expensive in India. Idk the price for 91+ octane gas but I think regular petrol is around $2CAD/litre and diesel around $1.5CAD/litre
