Early on in my cigar smoking life, I was really loving Davidoff Millenium Lonsdales (still do actually) and my mom asked me how much I paid for the cigar. The conversation went EXACTLY like this:
Mom: How much did you pay for that cigar?
Me: Somewhere around $18 or so.
Mom: $20 for a cigar? What a waste of money! You should have just rolled a $20 bill up, set it on fire and smoked that.
Me: Get a $20 bill to taste like this cigar does and I'll set my entire paycheck on fire. I don't care how much it cost, I'm enjoying it.
Mom: I guess that's a good point.

Maaaaan, that was the WORST part. She was effing 29, and I'm not opposed to thick girls, but she was just plain fat and shaped like a bowling pin. She had like a 5 o clock shadow, and I also forgot to mention that she said she used to do crack. I'm just too nice of a person to have told her to leave me alone
I love the bro-douche-asaurus guy at my buddy's birthday part that said, "dude, thats not cuban? Well, bro, I can hook you up... There is this place downtown ("cuban cigar factory") where they make them. I know those dudes. They hook it up fat."
1) The only time I saw anyone making anything there, the guy looked like he was wrapping "sandwiches"
2) They taste like shit.
3) The place also sells DPG blues for close to 15/piece.
...hookin' it up fat.

I'm using this one!!! id you don't mind!
Did you give him a cigar when you learned he wasn't joking?
I've always wanted to try one but of course those are expensive.. the price is more than 18 where I look though. What are the typical flavors and textures of a DAvidoff would you say, and in particular with the millenium blend? I've heard AVO is similar, what about them?
This is the point I would have offered them a cigar.
I've heard about some people being really into smoking the butts of the cigars in their pipes. I mean REALLY into them.That's pretty cool. I'd bomb granny with a fiver and tell her to chop 'em up for gramps.
I feel for ya, but it's understandable that they may have just been in there to get their father or boyfriend something and they really didn't like the smoke in itself.
Davi's aren't the most complex tasting stick flavor wise honestly. The LP are far more complex in terms of a flavor profile. But what I do love about Davidoff is that they are the most consistent cigar I've ever had. I've never had a bad one....flavor or burn wise. I know exactly what to expect when I light one up and I'm never disappointed. Flavor wise, I get a lot of cedar, some coffee / mocha comes through at times and leather...at least in the Millenium line. The Puro D'or has replaced it as my favorite Davi. BTW, the $18 price point was back about 7 years ago. They are now well over $20 a stick for the same size.
As far as AVO's go, I do enjoy them but it's been a while since I've smoked one....probably 2 years or so. If I remember correctly, Davidoff makes AVO's or controls the blend, so they too are consistent. I don't remember too much about the flavor profile though....sorry.
I'd be honored sir.....use away!!!!

New story!
Went to the laundromat to wash my work clothes. Was out sitting on a bench having a smoke when these two homeless guys carrying everything they have on em in a roller cooler stop to wash their clothes as well. They both come outside splitting a giant bud ice between them and ask me if I'm smoking a giant blunt. I laugh and tell em it's a just a regular cigar. They offer me a drink, and I decline. So the talk for awhile and people watch the church's chicken across from us. From first impressions you'd think they were just bums who weren't worth shit, but after our hour or so long talk they seemed like good guys. Funny though, how I met em over them thinking my cigar was was a big blunt.

i had a guy at the park ask me if i had a spare cigar he could have because he had weed and was out of phillies...i could of tried to explain but i dont think he would of understood lol i just told him it was my only one
People wouldn't understand the hard work that goes into em. Sad really.
it is sad..the whole process from the field to the box is an amazing thing..all the care that goes into the tobacco and sticks..its something that is loved and respected by all botls
People prefer to love the scraps that get swept off the floor. I won't say anything about the weed cause I'd still smoke it if I could
