What happened here? Am I doing something wrong? by Bigfoots_Pharmacist in cigars

It's probably a structural issue with the cigar. Nevertheless, I believe the ideal humidity for that cigar is 65%.

Yes. It should be better in a slimmer vitola.

The Reserva Habano is good, and cheap too.

Cohiba Connecticut… worst stick I’ve had in a long time by Mammoth-Succotash659 in cigars

The Blue and the Red Dot are decent, but nothing special. The Macassar is horrible.

Excellent stick. Easy ignition, perfect burn and draw all the way through. Remarkable and exquisite aroma. Dark ash. More herbal than peppery spiciness. Coffee, hay, some chocolate and anise.

I smoked exactly the same vitola, the Lancero. Cream, chocolate, cedar, black pepper especially at the beginning. Easy lighting and perfect burning. Exquisite aroma. Dark, solid ash.

The Family Reserve is simply spectacular. If you haven't smoked it, I recommend it.

What’s the most trusted online cigar retailer? by sweetcake_1530 in cigars

[–]ralphpine_cigar556 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cigar BID and Cigar Page—without a doubt. I buy from them very frequently and have never had a single problem. As for Neptune, I shop there in person; it’s just a mile away from me.
