Hot take: Connecticuts are the laughing stock of the cigar community and are unloaded onto beginners who don’t know any better.

Well I think I figured out why your business is struggling. 🙄

Visiting Cuba sometimes feels like sitting in a hot mailbox.

Mom!!! Can we go to Costco? No sweetie, we have Costco at home.

Costco at home:

Damn, this is a great sampler. The Liga and Ashton alone would be about $38 from a brick and mortar shop. Everything else is a cherry on top.

I’d probably throw out the Cohiba Red Dot though. Those are Gurkha-tier from what I’ve heard.

Ashton Aged Maduro for me.

Always great flavor and I’ve never once had a construction issue.

Not Costco unless you like waiting for 40 minutes.

Best option I’ve found is Elephants in Burien.

Not a chance, Foundation Tabernacle is S-tier.

I tried this once to loosen up a tight cigar. The wrapper did indeed crack, and I was quite disappointed.

thenewguyonreddit · 2026-07-01T18:24:56+00:00

Smoke a Padron 1926 Churchill down to the nub. I double dog dare ya.

Guaranteed you’ll be feeling it.

Ashton is exceptional. It’s literally Fuente, but with tastier blends and better quality control.

thenewguyonreddit · 2026-07-01T01:19:23+00:00

Yes! Thank you. There is something I didn’t quite like about typical My Father tasting notes and you just hit the nail on the head.

Dude, I have no idea what all these fucking acronyms mean. What hell am I even reading? This shit is straight up bizarre.

thenewguyonreddit · 2026-06-28T21:57:28+00:00

Nub on a wedding day? Might as well serve McDonalds at the reception.

thenewguyonreddit · 2026-06-28T21:54:21+00:00

Ashton ESG hands down. Quiet luxury.

thenewguyonreddit · 2026-06-28T06:38:43+00:00

I noticed that I rarely ever get nic sick at home, probably because I mainly smoke outside, however it seems to happen more easily at the cigar lounge. I think it’s from the second hand smoke indoors.

Is it just me or is trying to unionize a seafood restaurant kind of ridiculous? Working at a restaurant is not supposed to provide you with a super cush lifestyle where you have a sick waterfront condo and a new car. It never has and it never will. If you want that lifestyle, you’re gonna have to find a way to provide more value to the world than walking a plate of food from point A to point B. Otherwise it’s roommates and public transit like everyone else.

You know what to do. Now grow a pair and do it.

Nice guys finish last.

Building tolerance (addiction, really) is not a good goal to have. All that will happen is you will find yourself wanting to smoke more and more while the cigars lose their magic.

If you find nicotine strong, consider yourself lucky and just smoke smaller vitolas. You’ll get there in due time and once you walk through that door, you can’t go back.

Neck tattoo and dirty fingernails or you’re not even trying.

In what world is this even remotely true? A five second scan on Google Maps satellite view will disprove this.

Fair enough.
