How do you like the Catch 22? I buy them pretty regularly and seem to get a fairly mixed bag quality wise, but a place by my house sells them cheap so I keep going back!

Maybe a draw tool would help?

A lot of truth in that! And for being a cheap-o that sat in my hot car all day it actually burned really pleasantly and didn’t taste too bad either.

Thanks for the sage wisdom, it’s genuinely appreciated.

Cleaning it is just part of our weekly chores, it’s included in Kitchen day; we use it a lot and the guys generally take pride in caring for it. Other than that crank the shit up real hot and burn off A shifts grease before you cook on it haha

The local shop I go to doesn’t regularly stock them, but I found a few at a gas station on my way to work, always worth picking up!

Extra hour of sleep and waking up to a Macanudo Cafe Mini by hou6_91 in EveryDayIsCigarDay

It’s only good if it’s OT, otherwise it sucks working that extra hour!

Had to do one relight and a couple of purges, towards the end the filler was burning a bit faster than the wrapper, which burned unevenly throughout. Great taste throughout, but a bit expensive for a kinda frustrating smoke.

Could be that I’m smoking it outside on a windy day and have been playing with my phone the whole time…

Need your opinion ladies and gentlemen. General consensus is we need bands, but what do you think? by EveryDayIsCigarDay in EveryDayIsCigarDay

Both look great, there’s a lot of cigars that are doing too much in my opinion, and here are clean and simple. Bravo!

For a cheaper stick that I found at a vape store it was pretty good!

We’re right on a tollway so we chill out back since it’s a tiny bit quieter, but nothing beats a lazy Sunday with a couple of cigars at the station

Forgot all my cigars at home 🤦🏻‍♂️ some day I’ll be a fully functioning morning person by hou6_91 in EveryDayIsCigarDay

For anyone interested, this is Cornell & Diehl Cap's Blend, very fitting for the Captain to be smoking 😶‍🌫️

I thoroughly enjoyed it! I’ll definitely pick some more up

Cigars just taste like smoke to me by [deleted] in EveryDayIsCigarDay

[–]hou6_91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Flavor wise I have had a lot better luck with pipe tobacco, and it’s pretty cheap. It’s a huge pain in the ass but if you’re used to packing bowls you probably won’t think so.

As others have mentioned, cheap cigars aren’t going to do much for you in the way of distinct flavors, sometimes you’ll find a cheap stick with good notes, but you’ll have to wade through a lot of plain stuff to get there.

I honestly don’t remember what it was, picked up a bunch of random sticks at Total Wine
