I allways like the MC , I almost enjoy every cigar except a few , and a good smoke has nothing to do with the price of the cigar offcourse a Cuban Behike something different from a $2 Te-Amo (world series has some great cigars)

I always find that my Montecristo No.1 gets me through an entire football game - be that EPL or NRL. Medium bodied, great draw, even burn. Try putting some away for 12 months, then try, even better!

You can become a cigar refugee and apply for immigrant status here in Canada based on discrimination by your own government,your case could set the precedent.

If you can prove that your restricted access to quality Cuban cigars is a direct threat to your life and limb your application will succeed,this is the fundamental basis of Canadian immigration law.

I think Obama should meet Fidel Castro ASAP ( I've heard Obama used to smoke)

Propably he'll get a big box of Cuban Finest while discussing the embargo (almost 50 years...)
The embargo should be stopped now , it has nothing to do with post 2000 world.

Don`t think for a moment that Cuban cigars don`t find their way into the US as long as people are willing to pay the price.

Still a very sensitive political issue for millions of Americans who consider Cuba their homeleand. Just ask the Florida Marlins baseball team manager: http://news.yahoo.com/marlins-suspen...8689--mlb.html

As is stated in that article ...let's keep the politics out of this thread. It's simply about sharing fine cigars.

I'll be popping over to the cigar lounge this afternoon after lunch to enjoy a smoke with Mitch from here....becoming a key holder so will have access all the time....:)

A dedicated cigar lounge with a decent bar......sounds like the perfect spot for Trf GTGs post dinner!!!

Last time for me was 91, when I was in Germany.

I quit smoking not long afterwards, but I might consider smoking again if I could get my hands on a Cuban Cigar.
