Calgarydetail, great link to Authentic Cuban Cigars and Aged Cigars From Switzerland. They have partagas series D ( length 4.8, gauge 50) for less then $10 USD each box of 15, that's insanely cheap! Are these prices for real or are they not true cubans.

thanks, and they are real.. i have odred a few times from them ,taken them to the store to get verified as well as compared them to a box a fiend picked meup frm the factory in cuba.. as far as i can tell they are real..

I had one of the Acids this weekend the Maduro. Nice little smoke. They do have some sweetness to them and smell great. I also had a JR Ulimate and it was good also. Had a nice burn to it.

On a second note I am still fighting with my humidor. Gonna do the salt test for my hydrometer soon to check its accuracy. I even removed all my cigars and re seasoned. It seemed pretty steady at 65-70 for a day then I introduced my cigars a couple a day. I will see what the salt tests reveals. Cigars do not feel dry.

I am a big fan of CAO

Nope not cuban... due to the Embargo we can't get them in the US... I tried to gove cubans a go and never really did understand the appeal.. I would go to Windsor and get some.. I kept trying and trying thinking my pallete was green but I just never cared for cubans

i know oyu guys cannot get them but there are plenty that will ship to the states

you are paying way to much i you are buying them in windsor, its to close to the border, they jack uo the prices

like any region there are good and bad, i ind cubans age really really well

but it all comes down to what you like

so like what you smoke and smoke what you like

i went ahead and ordered a box of the paratagas from the online place you recommended and everything went through w/o a hitch, for less then $10 USD per cigar it is a very good deal. i didn't tell my buddy and his wife bought 10 from me, should have seen the look on his face when she gave them to him as one of his birthday presents.

here's a list of my favorites in order:

Davidoff Series R - my present favorite. non-bitter, non-harsh. has a smooth, slow, even burn. on the pricey side.
Padron 1964 - very nice burn but a bit more harsh then the Davidoff
Partagas series D - very close to the Padron, but a good bargain at less the $10 USD.
Ashton VSG - has to be the VSG, as i don't like any other cigar from their line. not harsh but not as smooth as the Davidoff, sometimes can have a problem burning evenly and consistently. more reasonably priced then the Davidoff and Padron.

im glad it worked out, theres nothing better then the look on a friends face when you give them a good cigar...

ohh and you have great taste in cigars

on a side note, my friends b-day is comming up, he chews (kinda sick i know) and he loves Hawkens, whichs can only be found in a few states.
I was wondering if somone would be willing to pick some up and ship it to me. I ofcourse will pay for everything, including you hassel.
It a present that i think he would love so i igured i would ask........


Thanks in advance

Where is hawkens made? I haven't seen it but I would assume I could find it here or back home. On a side note my grandfather makes his own chew. He picks out the leaves he wants, pulls the stems out, then twist it up. lol No sugars, molasses, etc. Strong as heck! I tried it once.
Oh yes I have had a few cigars lately:
Rocky Patel the Edge and Edge Lite (Liked Edge Lite better)
CAO Italia, Brazila, MX2 (Liked them all)
Alec Bradley MAXX - Liked it but damn that a big cigar. lol

Still fighting with my little humidor.
