So, Team Lucas. You prefer a machine made Quintero to a BR Roberts 109? That’s what I understood Team Lucas prefers.

They should hand out a Salomon No.2 at the festival. I'm curious which marca it will be. They have recently been rolled at La Corona, a very nice and rare vitola, my money is on Cuaba since its the 30th anniversary but the ones we sampled didn't taste much like Cuaba.

Odd, isn't it? To make it clearer, I'm not a CC snob, I like NCs too, just like I like superhero movies, but it's not where I'm headed when I want a deeper experience. Many were fairly enjoyable but none of those I've smoked were truly magnificent. To my taste anyway, which I'm not saying is objective. On the other hand, Fab 5 cigars are the first ones that blew me away, they're NCs tailor-made for CC lovers, I could smoke them on a daily basis which is not the case with any of the other NCs I've had.

Fabrica 5 are non cubans. 😂😂 Are we in the Matrix? Asking for Fox Mulder.

Putting it together sounds complicated ..... Gunfire A British drink, the gunfire was first mixed by British army soldiers during the 1890s. This cocktail is typically served at breakfast. It is also traditionally served to soldiers in their beds by their officers on Christmas Day at Reveille if they are deployed over the holiday. The Australian version substitutes the black tea for coffee. Recipe 1 cup of hot, black tea 1 shot of rum Pour the rum into the tea and stir.

If I'm smoking in our local B&M, then I tend to go for SLR Regios, D4, BBF. All relatively reliable when box fresh.

I tend to enjoy bolivar and most Montecristo on the younger side as they have the richness and intensity I’m looking for.

Just to clarify, I think you mean you only like Cubans but not NC, then put thank God for Fabrica 5?

It wasn't difficult for him as he wasn't acting. They promised him cigars after the film. He found out they were non Cuban.

Yeah, I think we all got your point @Hooshgiven you've made it clear from the first day 😁 Nobody who's being completely honest to himself can say he's immune to that confirmation bias, neither me nor you mate 😉 Our tastes don't match and reading some of your previous posts I'm not sure I get what you like or call strength but that's ok I don't need to understand it in order to respect it, to each his own 👍 I often wish NCs did it for me too because it would be easier and a lot less expensive, but many who were born and raised with CCs like me just can't. I'm in @Lucas Buck's team 🧐. And thank God for Fabrica 5

Cuban cigars are fairly approachable all across the board as a general rule , by and large. That is, excluding pantywaists, and sissies... give em 90 days and try one.

And Fab 5 ninfas had it out the gate!

Hi Alex. I'm in the same boat. I re-added items and I initially did receive a few emails but I haven't received any for weeks.

Congratulations @riderpride!

Congratulations @riderpride!

I’m not alone.

This is the most perfect example of confirmation bias I’ve read on this forum. My mind can’t even be wrapped around the idea that there is a palate out there that would take a Guantanamera or a Cohiba Short over a sub $20 Don Carlos EotB or a sub $10 Oliva Serie V Belicoso or even a sub $5 Tatuaje Series P Honduran cigar. But, I guess that’s why they say there’s no accounting for taste…

Are you buying a box or cigars? Fake cigars may be placed in the original box. If you do not trust the seller 100%, it is better to avoid purchasing.

Congratulations!

Thanks Prez! I assumed there was good reason. Now I’m informed.

Congratulations!

This was an issue early on that was marked as fixed some time ago, but looking into your account I can see that you should have received some notifications but didn't. I've re-raised it with the developers.

What a steal. Those days are so gone. A reasonable price now to me would be $250 to $300 a box. Ymmv
