Re: Best Quick Smokes

Surprised no one mentioned Tatuaje Petit Cazadores Reserva.

I'm liking the new Black Works Studio Rorschach right now.

Re: The Wine Thread

Malconsorts is the vineyard next to La Tache and it's quality can approach Grand Cru level with pricing to match. Montille, Dujac, and Cathiard are the best.

I like the Les Suchots 1er cru for its...

Re: The Wine Thread

An ice cold Bud Light is perfectly fine for me as a refreshment on a blazing hot summer day. Vinho Verde, a classic style of Portuguese wine, is light, fresh, and not terribly complex but perfect...

Re: The Wine Thread

While I do prefer old world wines, I find that many new world wines are very well made. It's often a case of terroir versus deliciousness and accessibility. Argentine Malbec does serve its purpose...

Re: Vegas Shops

En Fuego is a comfortable spot.

I would also highly recommend the Cigar Box, a hidden gem tucked away in an industrial area not far from En Fuego. Great selection of cigars in their big walk-in...

Re: Need Rum Help...

I like Matusalem as well. Not as sweet as most of the others, closer to Cuban style rum.

Re: Esteli

The Nicaraguan cigar brands we know and love are made for export. To buy them in Nicaragua they would have to be "imported" back and are subject to huge taxes. I smoked a few brands (Liga Privada,...

Re: The Wine Thread

I agree with you on Dow. I consider it one of the Big Four along with Fonseca, Taylor and Graham.

I also like the single quinta ports from these producers as they are great values.

Re: The Wine Thread

One of my all time favorites is the 1955 Taylor. I was fortunate enough to taste it several times. The oldest port I tasted was a 1890 Dow but it was a little past it's prime.

Re: Casa Fuente Cigar of Choice...

Casa Fuente Orange Band. Great flavor!

Yellow band is the sun grown Sumatra wrapper. I'm kind of on the fence about this one.
