Re: What beer or liquor are you drinking right now?

Robert Nenow 2002 Syrah.
Frankly, it has so much alcohol and is so sweet that it tastes more like port than syrah

Re: Xikar Xi3 or Palio cutter?

I use(d) the Xikar simply because thye are always on top of my humis.... I don't like the blade thickness though because when your cigar is a bit on the dry side it can crack the wrapper a bit as it...

Re: Xikar Xi3 or Palio cutter?

Good point - completely forgot about that!
I don't remember where I got it (I have a few Xikars and only one Palio) but I'll contact them and see what happens.

Re: Xikar Xi3 or Palio cutter?

My Xikar just stopped working - the spring or whatever it is inside no longer pushes the blades out.
Any suggestions?

Re: When did you first 'notice' cigars?

I always (or at least as long as I can remember) like that faint smell of cigar smoke.

Re: Coronado by La Flor Double Corona

I have a couple of boxes and I thing that as time goes by they are getting more bland. That is in contrast with quite a few other brands/marcas which become more interesting with age.

Re: Coronado by La Flor Double Corona

I had the CC earlier in the day, and I only took a puff from my friends cigar, but I know what you're saying.
It's not that I did not like it, it just wasn't what I hoped it was going to be like.
