zmancbr Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 The part I love best of this thread...is showing up to see which rare cigar you smoke next! I'm so so glad you smoke any and all of them. I mean what's the point if you don't get to enjoy them. I know some people collect rare cigars, but I prefer to smoke them. I may never get the opportunity to smoke many of the cigars you do, but I can come here and live vicariously through you! Thanks again and keep up the marvelous pics. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArtemusGordon Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Urs. PLEASE KEEP THE POSTS AND PICTURES COMING! Thank you very much for posting. Incredible collection and amazing to look at.

USA Posted March 13, 2014 Author Share Posted March 13, 2014 My morning-cigar is from a Partagas No. P1 jar. A very sweet start, hay and a thin layer of sandalwood, some hints of pepper which turns to stronger over the time and reaches an intense flavour of white pepper - pure deep, intense white pepper - it's magnificent! The acidity is well balanced and absolutely perfect integrated into the complex layers of aromas - this is an absolute fantastic cigar! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeyGunz Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Hopefully I'll get a P1 jar this year 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overproof Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Jar San Cristóbal de la Habana - Torreón - released 2013 - a very nice smoke indeed... What's with the white one wrapped in what looks like tissue paper? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USA Posted March 13, 2014 Author Share Posted March 13, 2014 I was asked about the ashtray I use, over PM. Maybe it's from interest to others. I got it from Art Of Christian: http://www.artofchristian.com/ He is a designer located in Zurich, Switzerland. There are three diffent ones, capable to hold one to three cigars. There are two lines from different material, one cuted out of a solid block of aluminium (which I own), the other poured with pewter (cheaper). A support stand is available like in the 3rd picture. I like these asthrays because they are very solid and have the shape of pure hightech. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USA Posted March 13, 2014 Author Share Posted March 13, 2014 What's with the white one wrapped in what looks like tissue paper? I don't know why they are doing this. It's a normal cigar, like the others, wrapped in paper. Maybe for design reasons, for a nice look? Some jar series have a wrapped cigar in it, some don't have.

Perla Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 They (cigars) were put into the tissue, because they can take this cigar out of the jar and back into the jar without breaking the wrapper. Otherwise the foot will be gone soon or the wrapper close to the anilla. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LGC Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 What's with the white one wrapped in what looks like tissue paper? It makes it easier to pull the first cigar out of the packaging. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post USA Posted March 20, 2014 Author Popular Post Share Posted March 20, 2014 As a contrast to enjoying cigars - I like to have a glass of good wine. I'm very Bdx centric, have a few Italian wines and other countries. The following pictures are some views of my first cellar. It's crowded meanwhile, because I bought more than I can drink. There are two other places where I store wines. Enjoy! 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puros Y Vino Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 O M G. The wine. Fess up Urs. Is there some apocalypse coming up that the rest of us aren't aware of? Between cigars and wine you have several life times of consumption stocked away. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
