And then the guy who works there starts telling you things like "we have Macanudos, Rocky Patels, that's one of the newer brands and they're really popular, over here we have Java cigars, they're like a coffee-flavored cigar and they're really good, we do have a box of Cohibas, they're a little more expensive but they're one of the biggest names in the industry and that's what Fidel Castro smoked so you know they're the good stuff, and down here we have some cheaper options" as he points to a bin of Factory Rejects or some shit like that...First post nailed it BTW
So far what I hate about cigars is standing in a SMALL B&M looking at three dozen open boxes of cigars and saying ..what the hell am I looking at?????

And of course, "just let me know if you have any questions"
A lot of cigar shops up here in WA sell those cheap "Cuban rounds" cigars, and a *lot* of people think they are actually cubans. Its pretty sad.Wow you hit that one out of the park!!
BUT thanks to BOTL it's not like in the beginning when I thought he was speaking Latin, I understand some of what they are saying
Like Cohibas=fake Cohibas That's right Mr.Cigar store guy I know REAL Cohibas come from "the island" not South America.......I think
Lol! What's even worse where im at the few liquor/smoke shops that actually carry anything other than Philly blunts, don't even humidify their stuff. Such a waste.A lot of cigar shops up here in WA sell those cheap "Cuban rounds" cigars, and a *lot* of people think they are actually cubans. Its pretty sad.
a local grocery store was like this for a while, they had a little glass cabinet with cigars in it, i bought one from it one day(a little arturo fuente thing) and it was bone dry! I told them about it, and they got kind of upset with me and said "They are maintained by the distributor in good condition!" and i was like "See the little sponge? thats your humidifier, its dry. The cigars are dry, no good anymore" They ended up just getting rid of the cabinet :cLol!

Same thing happened to me, when I told the guy he looked at me like I had 3 heads and was speaking Klingon. They even had some FD double ligero too, next to the acids and macanudo cigarrellos of course. Pulled one out and against my sub conscious screaming not to waste 11$, I bought it. Was so dryed out I had to chuck ita local grocery store was like this for a while, they had a little glass cabinet with cigars in it, i bought one from it one day(a little arturo fuente thing) and it was bone dry!

That goes for lots of stuff. The internet told them. Just leaves more for me!When people slam a cigar they haven’t tried. “Nah I’ve never smoked one of those, it’s a dog rocket”..... how do you know then I wonder .....
Stupid Tapatalk
That's an easy decisionWhen you light up a premium cigar you've been itching to smoke, and your new lady friend calls and says she'll be over in 10 minutes and to be "ready".
On point and great post!When you light up a premium cigar you've been itching to smoke, and your new lady friend calls and says she'll be over in 10 minutes and to be "ready".
