Baccy Posted April 19, 2018 Posted April 19, 2018 I know their stuff is rather pricey, especially the humidors, but I very much admire the pristine beauty and precision craftsmanship of this brand. I don't actually own anything made by Elie Bleu, but if you've got it flaunt it. Post em up!
alloy Posted April 20, 2018 Posted April 20, 2018 If you ever get to try a "Che" cigar (Elie Bleu Che humidor), it will be the best cigar you ever smoked. The torpedo's are just a two hour journey. Twang, citrus, dark chocolate and many more flavors. The best cigar I ever smoked. Glad I have a fiver left. 3

Smallclub Posted April 20, 2018 Posted April 20, 2018 1 hour ago, Baccy said: So they actually produced a line of cigars? They commissioned a batch of cigars (habanos of course), created a flashy band, so they sold humidors filled with rare cigars. The initial batch was allegedly very good, but then a few years later some cigars with the same band popped up from one or two retailers, sold as pricey singles… and those were terrible. The one I tried didn't even taste cuban; It was possibly a scam that added an extra layer of doubt on the retailer's reputation… 3
cigcars Posted April 20, 2018 Posted April 20, 2018 * Was able to buy a fiver myself some years back. Have one Che cigar left. Aging now in my Daniel Marshall humidor going on 14 years now (bought in 2004 while still in Atlanta, Georgia). 2
patrickamory Posted November 15, 2021 Posted November 15, 2021 Just got this to replace a janky Xikar Allume, and very much enjoying it. 3
Meesterjojo Posted November 15, 2021 Posted November 15, 2021 I've been eyeballing one of their lighters but I won't commit until I see the flame from it. Seen YouTube videos of the lighter but Noone ever lights the dang thing. Their leather cases are fantastic. 2
patrickamory Posted November 15, 2021 Posted November 15, 2021 Flame in the second photo above. Hard to see - it's a flat flame which is new to me. Worked great for tonight's smoke.

Also, you can keep it in the case while lighting, which protects your fingers from the heat if that should come up.
5thStarChicago Posted November 17, 2021 Posted November 17, 2021 Here's the newest (and probably coolest) J-14s that hit this fall. Had to get one of each. One of has it lit @Meesterjojo so you can see it in anger. Also attached a poorly lit pic of my humi. Red sycamore with gold foil inlay. Saw it and couldn't resist, especially being number 22. 4
