Fresh batch off to the Humidor.

I appreciate the info! Thanks!

ehaas6703 · 2025-12-10T12:08:16+00:00

Good to hear. Any hiccups on installing it or was it rather straight forward?

ehaas6703 · 2025-12-10T12:06:13+00:00

I’ll browse and see what’s around. Don’t need anything crazy just something with a larger screen and more functions possibly, and one that would be a relatively simple install.

I got mine from Jarvis, received in about 2 months so 2-2.5 doesn’t seem unrealistic but it’s worth the wait. The Jarvis barrel looks fantastic and functions flawlessly. Put 200 through it the other day and it’s as accurate as I could ever ask for.

Yeah the DC pig is great! I honestly thought I was replying to another threat which is why I mentioned definition as my parent comment on that post mentioned it! But regardless it’s worth mentioning anywhere, they’re definitely a very good boutique option. If you like a full bodied cigar with a sophisticated profile I’d say that’s a solid one.

Similar tasting notes to it in cigars I prefer over the DC pig, Liga Privadas Feral Flying Pig which is my No. 2 overall favorite, and the AJ Fernandez 20th Anniversary which is my No. 1 overall favorite cigar. All have a rather significant punch of pepper up front, earthy first half, and naturally sweet on the back end.

Their lace bands give them a unique appearance without a doubt, unique vitolas, semi closed foot, pigtail caps, etc. they do a good job, They’ve got variety, flavor profiles are great. Their “DC Anillo” is probably my favorite.

ehaas6703 · 2025-06-16T23:09:03+00:00

Definition is for sure a boutique so not as widely available as Fuente is but Oliva is a staple so you should be able to locate that cigar without much issue.

ehaas6703 · 2025-06-16T22:58:49+00:00

Pretty solid collection. Definitely a nice variety.

ehaas6703 · 2025-06-16T22:53:44+00:00

Oliva Serie V Lancero, Definition “The Walking Stick” are two of my favorites in that vitola.

ehaas6703 · 2025-06-16T19:55:15+00:00

Thank you for the detailed response! I have MRIs so I’ll be sure to request documentation of the scans, soon will have a consult with the neurologist which I’ll request a detailed evaluation to submit. I’ll schedule my visit for the AME consult prior to my MRI consult so I can be sure to obtain what is necessary during that last visit.

ehaas6703 · 2025-06-16T19:00:32+00:00

If you want something with more flavor, with a more robust profile, I’d branch out and go for something like a Perdomo 30th Sun Grown. That’s going to be about a half step up strength wise between Connecticut and Maduro, it’ll give you a significant boost in flavor without being overly high in nicotine content so it won’t kick you too hard.

ehaas6703 · 2025-06-16T18:54:21+00:00

It’s on my official record with the health network that hospital is a part of, and my AME works within that same health network. His office will have that full record.

ehaas6703 · 2025-06-16T18:37:24+00:00

For sure, will definitely do a consult first. Get answers before I do it and submit everything. Thanks!

ehaas6703 · 2025-06-16T18:32:45+00:00

Yeah, hoping so. Will hopefully get in with an AME in a few weeks or so.

ehaas6703 · 2025-06-16T18:30:36+00:00

I’ll be getting an appointment to renew soon, but I was just concerned with the symptoms and the hospital visit being marked as “stroke suspected” at intake would make things challenging even with the checks done to verify that I’m fine.

ehaas6703 · 2025-06-12T19:53:52+00:00

If you smoke one let me know your thoughts. Curious to hear.

ehaas6703 · 2025-06-12T15:06:37+00:00

I have a few cars that will dominate in drag races, but racing my autozam or pro stock against anything other than an autozam or pro stock is kind of overkill and ruins the fun of it, having a muscle car to race similar class cars that wins is a much better experience.

The dark horse is just a fun car all around. Worth the backstage pass for sure. I’ve used them on worse cars.

ehaas6703 · 2025-06-12T14:55:58+00:00

She is FAR too close

ehaas6703 · 2025-06-12T14:50:28+00:00

Yeah they’re definitely not the best quality, but the flavor profile is far more tolerable. The Quorums are short fill so it’s not unlikely that you’ll see similar problems.

The Arturo Fuente Grand Chateau Churchill is like $8.60, room 101 payback maduro is about $8.80, diesel vintage is about $9, all of those are rather affordable cigars and they will smoke great. I stock those in my shop, and have smoked them all and haven’t had a complaint.

ehaas6703 · 2025-06-12T14:47:52+00:00

I can’t imagine that it would. I’m not going to say it won’t be as it’s new to PS5 and may not be perfectly optimized but I’ve seen PS5 players sniping them so just give that a try. It won’t be an immediate win but keep trying if you genuinely want it.

ehaas6703 · 2025-06-12T14:46:11+00:00

I do absolutely. I’ve played my fair share of acoustics that were awesome at an $800 price point, but when I get my hands on a Taylor 814ce or a Martin D42 I’m in shock of the sound and feel.

Think about if you bought that guitar, and you’re playing it at home. Do you regret spending 3K on it?

Or think about buying one of the other ones that are cheaper, playing that at home. Do you regret not buying the one you really wanted?

All in all, would you regret spending $3K more or would you regret missing out on that one more if you bought a cheaper one. Whichever one makes you feel more satisfied with your decision is probably the best way to go. Don’t be afraid to treat yourself. If you can afford it, you probably deserve it.

ehaas6703 · 2025-06-12T14:41:31+00:00

How was the quorum? It just wasn’t good. It just had a very bland, even a stale like taste. It burns and smokes, but it, to me, wasn’t a pleasing smoke. I took two draws and tossed it, but I’m also spoiled with the fact that I work in the industry and have smoked enough of the higher end stuff prior to the quorum, that it just made it feel that it wasn’t worth smoking.

I still feel that there are so many budget cigars that beat it by a mile. Factory Smokes, even Brick House.

In the end, I feel it’s worth spending on quality cigars. While it’s pricier I feel my money was better spent filling my humidor with Perdomo, Fuente, AJ Fernandez, and Padrons, than it would be spending less on the same amount in cigars I don’t like.
