You....are getting too technical with the smokes. And bud to me, tastes like shit also

then you need some OG kush or sour diesel. ever had bud that tastes like pure lemons? and im not exaggerating. i mean lemons ALL over the palate.

or pineapple c99...a bud that lightly tastes like pineapple.

these are verified as flavors coming from the genetics too. no bullshit here. its an amazing plant that people have done a lot of work to, to get some crazy results.

there is more to bud than the commercial offerings. could be the same for tobacco, but as of now i haven't experienced it, which is why i say it tastes like shit.

yea but telling how easy something draws is pretty easy to see without taking a picture IMO.
none the less, i just though you were trying to "show off" which i thought was gay. but obviously it has a specific purpose.

If my purpose was to show off id put up pics of my humidor and cooler-dor. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif But Im not trying to show off. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif

A) i don't have the money

B) i don't have the connection(cheap dealers ftl)

C) i don't smoke that much

But i'll keep that in mind tho.

And //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif changing tastes like that means it's not bud anymore //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif

well...usually i try to get pics of the smoke coming out of the cigar. You can tell a lot from the thickness of the smoke such as ease of draw. Thus, I must be actually puffing on the cigar when the pic is taken //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wow.gif.23d729408e9177caa2a0ed6a2ba6588e.gif

I guess I can see that, just not for myself. I'm the farthest thing from an aficianado. I smoke em to enjoy em. Goin that far to me becomes a job and that takes away from relaxing to me. I see it the same as wine. Its a "hobby" for some but to me its just either I like the wine/cigar or I don't, and I'm not going to waste the time to micro manage it.

My tastes and cigar judging scale is pretty simple. Tasty or shitty, they all fall into one of those two categories.

Oh well of course they are good to have some dupes for simply relaxing. Thats where the beauty of it all comes in. I guess some where along the line obsession can seek in if you hang out with a crowd of die-hard stogie-gorillas like I did over at http://www.clubstogie.com (basiclly the caraudio.com of cigars).

Pretty much the same way it is for just going out and buying a sub for enjoyment like a normal person..and most of us guys who go out to buy subs to burp them for SPL levels..its really in essence the same thing when you think about it lol. Both cost a ton of money too.

what do you mean? its real...as in authentic...do you mean you thought it was a reserva?

 

[etznova 10+ year member]

oh if anybody is in the northern IL area tomorrow there is a cigar event at the local smoke shop

and they are have the main guy from La Aurora and will be hand rolling cigars on the spot

they did this a couple of months ago and i must say there i nothing like a freshly rolled cigar

just an FYI

 

[perfecxionX 10+ year member]

i mean a Habanos SA

Eh, I tend to stay away from not-so-legal imports, mate. Ive seen far too many smoking buddies get busted for that shiz. And all of them thought it wouldnt happen. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

Unless you are talking about habanos seed grown in legal borders...but, I dont really see too much the point of that. Because the climate difference of the cuba region is what makes the difference in the smoke any way =\
