Re: TRYING not to lose interest
Nothing wrong with taking some time off.
Nothing wrong with sticking with your routine.
Nothing wrong with trying new stuff.

Re: Big pepper bomb cigar?
I find a lot of DPG cigars feature pepper.
Ashton San Cristobals are a fav. The newer
SC Elegancia is a bit more subtle, but still
peppery.

Re: Question about pepper
The new Ashton San Cristobal Elegancia has a 'white pepper' taste.
It's also a tad smoother than the regular SC, due to the wrapper.
I find Nicaraguan tobacco to be more 'coarse' than DR tobacco....

Re: Punch Rare Corojo Question
They're terrific 'bang for the buck' sticks.
I buy a box and let them sit for at least 6 months.
As a matter of fact I need to get another box,
as soon as I get some room in my VT.

Re: Box for the boss...

keeping him from a bigger bonus.
Get him a box of Dutch Masters.

Re: Don Pepin Garcia JJ Maduro's
They put a new band on the JJs, not long ago.
Why do they drop the good lines for unknown
new lines?
I'll stock up on JJ maddies, too.

Re: What causes a metallic taste?
I had it in some La Perla Habanas.
Letting them rest for a few months solved the problem,
but mellowed them out, as well.
