The confessional...

[bleedingshrimp]

I'm a huge DPG fan...but I've never had a Tatuaje. ;s

I think most anything I've had that's a maduro is ".. meh".:td


What do you have to confess to?

Not a fan of maduros?? OUCH!!!

[Chompers]

I'm also not a big fan of maduros

I can smoke them on some days, but most of the time I prefer something more spicy and not chocolaty.

X2, but I had a CG4 today that was spicy and chocolatey, and oh so delicious!

[DPD6030]

I love maduros. :dr

[ZenSilk]

Those cg4's are in my humi and I'm gonna light one up as soon as the weather gets warmer. The way you described them is exactly like I hope they taste. :ss

[Bax]

I can't stand Rocky Patel and CAO's.

[GreekGodX]

I can't stand Rocky Patel and CAO's.


:tpd:

Add Gurkha, Torano, and Nub (including the Cain) :td

[TheTraveler]

A DPG blue almost kicked my butt.
A DPG black DID kick my butt.
I haven't worked up the nerve to smoke a JDN yet.

And this one time, at band camp .....

:D

[elderboy02]

I once bought a 5'er of Cremosas off another member here. Don't punish yourself, they taste horrible :pu

[poriggity]

I enjoy most Reyes Family cigars, including the premier, vintage, and classic. Cienfuegos is a go to smoke for me :)
Scott

[thebiglebowski]

not a maduro fan also. nor CAO, gurhka, rocky patel - if that's actually a confession...

[Aldebaran]

Oh father it has been eight years since my last confessional...

My friends consider me a go-to on cigar information when in fact I am a relative noob. Despite my lack of experience I still enjoy that I am seen as an aficionado and will ride that train for the ego boost alone. I figure though if I can get any of them to start smoking cigars regularly I have done the world a fine deed. That might not seem bad but I do try and be as honest as possible so it bothers me a bit.

I only enjoy the AF Hemingway and I've sampled a wide assortment of non-opus related AF cigars.

The biggest sin? Empty humidor :( Well I have a Ashton VSG I'm saving for my birthday but that is months away.

How many Hail Marys?

[Savvy]

I gave my friend a Cremosa without warning him...


...he should be on here to confess that he actually enjoyed it :r

[Uflbassin]

I started off smoking acids, tried the whole assortment, and loved them. THATS a sin.

[timo]

It wasn't ME!

[pmwz]

smoked an almost german puro (pfalz zigarre)
tried to smoke a fake cuban but i couldnt get any smoke going.

[jledou]

I like most Gurkhas but don't really like Oliva Vs

[M1903A1]

I think Cohibas are overrated.....

[BeerAdvocate]

I have never had a LFD or AVO

[Labman]

I think Cohibas are overrated.....

I have to agree with you!

[kenstogie]

I used to basically smoke only maduros but lately I have really learned to appreciate lighter stix as well. That's a little backwards but that's alright.

[wayner123]

I sometimes judge a cigar by it's label/brand. I just totally write off cigars of certain marca's based on past bad experiences with them. The BTT thread is a great way to overcome this and I recommend it to anyone who has the same prejudice.

However, there is no saving grace for Gurkha. :)

[Skywalker]

I smoke Arganese!!!!;s

[htown]

I don't like VSGs or most Oliva products.

[borndead1]

I don't like Oliva Vs or V maduros.

Fuente Hemis taste like dirt.

Fuente Green labels taste like sour dirt.

I wouldn't buy Opus X if they were $5/stick.

I have yet to smoke a Padron that wows me.

Over half of the cigars I smoke cost under $3 each. The rest cost under $9 each.

The 2 CCs I smoke the most of are: RyJ #2 tubos and La Flor de Cano Selectos.

I will never buy a dress box of CCs again.

I won't drink anything other than water when I smoke a cigar.

[coastietech]

Hmmm where should I start?

My first favorite cigar was an Acid Kuba Kuba.

I don't like Opus X, I think Anejo's are much better.

There are cigars I won't try simply because of the name and what I've read about them, closed minded I know, but I can't help it.

I like the Tat red's over the Tat browns.

I don't like the Illusione Epernay.

I am a maduro fiend and will smoke a no name maduro over a premuim name natural.

Based on the few CC's I've had, I'm not impressed.

[Doctorossi]

I will never buy a dress box of CCs again.


Can you elaborate on this one?

:tpd:


Empty humidor

Blaspheme

[Labman]

I once had un-pure thoughts abou...oh, wait this is a cigar confessional?? :D

Well, in that case I must confess that the Tatuaje T110 kicked my ass big time!!

[DougBushBC]

I must confess that my wallet would get a TON smaller if all these people that claim to not like OPUS X sold me their supplies!

I also must confess that even though 80% of Rocky's stuff is mediocre at best, the other 20% are some of my faves.

[perogee]

An Oliva V has laid the biggest whooping on me to date

[akumushi]

My fiancee doesn't like me to smoke very often and tells me I can only have 2 cigars a week. I smoke 4-5 cigars a week.;s

[bvilchez]

I once overpaid for a box of Monte #4.

[wrench turner 85]

I love the glass top humi cuban cohibas, they taste so good. :r

[borndead1]

Can you elaborate on this one?



Too many bad experiences, especially when comparing the dress box version to the cab version of the "same" cigar. Best examples from my experience are RASS, RyJ Exhibicion #4 and ERDM Choix Supreme. Cabs are incredible. Dress boxes? You couldn't convince me it's the same cigar. Also never gotten a cab (or box of tubos) with mold on them. I've gotten plenty of dress boxes with mold though. A few so bad I sent them back. And most of the plugged sticks I've gotten are from dress boxes.

[Doctorossi]

Too many bad experiences

Wow. How curious. Thanks for sharing your experiences. That's really bizarre.

[KidRock]

I love Tatuaje...it is the only NC to me thats consistant


I dream every night of smoking or getting the chance to puff on a RYJ 99 Churchill........the cigar was fanfreaktastic!

[bookman]

I smoke candelas.;s

[Doctorossi]

The '96s were awesome, too. :dr

[bookman]

:tpd:

Me too!!:tpd:

[bleedingshrimp]

I need to cleanse myself again.

I'll throw away 3/4 of a cigar if it's not doing it for me. I've fallen asleep while smoking a cigar. I have no urge to even try an Opus X. I actually like some Gurkha sticks.

[bookman]

I've passed out smoking a cigar.

[Jimbo14]

My fiancee doesn't like me to smoke very often and tells me I can only have 2 cigars a week. I smoke 4-5 cigars a week.;s


My girlfriend hates me smoking and I told her I would only smoke 3 a week. I smoke about 5-7 every week.


Also I think Cohibas taste terrible.

[shilala]

I have yet to find an Opus I enjoy, although I love Anejos with a passion.
Doug mentioned the Rocky Patel thing. A couple of my favorite cigars are super low rung Rocky's.
Most of my favorite cigars are cheap $.50 to $3.00 cigars.
In the last six months I have smoked so rarely that I always reach for something like an Anejo or a DC Anniversario, or other expensive stuff just because I feel "okay" about smoking them, because I'm smoking so seldom.
I always want a cigar, but I've been stuck in the house so much I can't squeeze one in.

[VirtualSmitty]

I've lit the wrong end of a cigar before
I hate maduros
I like the occasional candela
PSD4s suck

That is all :ss

[Bubba - NJ]

Most maduros taste sour and awful to me
An Anejo #46 put the biggest whoopin on me from a cigar ever
I don't like any Padrons
Nice thread . :tu

[chippewastud79]

I have never purged a lighter, just add fluid when I feel like it and never had any lighters stop working on me, including a number of Colibri lighters. Colibri makes the best lighter I own.

Diamond Crown Maximus is a much better cigar than Opus X.

The only decent cigars that Padron makes is their Anniversary Series and I won't even buy them at MSRP.

I once got two free sticks at a B+M because he thought I would be coming back and buying a lot more smokes, I haven't been back since. Not being a dick its just a long way from my house and they are uber expensive.

The best B+M for prices is 20 miles away from my house but I can't even smoke in it. The best B+M for their lounge is 2000 miles away from my house but they are too expensive to buy from.

:tu

[bookman]

I once bought ERDM and LGC (NCs), took off the bands, put them on some JR alternative sticks, re-celloed them and gave them to my brother for Christmas.


No. He didn't notice. I guess all the Molson and Kessler's he drank stiffled his taste buds.:D
