Go with what you know!

if i try a palio and like it, i'll simply buy one!
Trust me, you can't go wrong with a palio. I used several cutters untill Conch Republican gave me a palio, never used another cutter before. And they are shaped to be a cigarholder too, no more balancing the cigar on your lighter. Works as a charm.

Thats alot of (cool) pictures. Next time can we see each exhale?

Last time I smoked one of these did it with just one ash. Only cigar ever that way. Concrete ash. It had nice flavors. It highlights the conundrum in chatting across the Light side / Dark side divide. There are NC cigars that are real good. Typically, they are more expensive though.

Its funny that you mention that. I pulled out an Ashton Maduro the other day and did a photoreview (its on here too) and i was all excited to use my new CAO cubist ashtray... but i didnt need to... every pic of the cigar is with the ash attached... and i just doused it and threw it out when i was done...

BTW, i got that Ashton to stand up straight on its ash...!

Noooooooooooo!

But thank you for your help. 5 pictures per post seems like a reasonable limit.

There are some who still use dial-up and as such will never see posts with a zillion pictures in them given the time to load. Picture links work well though.
