Greetings from Canada

[Stogiecidal]

Have partaken throughout the years on many a special occassion but have become an avid cigar smoker for a year now. Currently residing in Oakville, Ontario, Canada but am a Montrealer through and through (go habs!)

I frequent/support my local smokes shops here in Oakville but love to search and visit different shops throughout the city. Huge fan of NC's in spite of the availabilty of CC's at my disposal. Due to Canadian pricing I often cross the border into Buffalo, NY to purchase my smokes.

Anyhow, apologies for the long winded introduction. Happy to be here! :cbig:

What do you tend to buy on these trips to the States? :welcome:

 

[iCraig]

Damn your habs, but :welcome: Glad to have ya on board.

What brands and cigars do you tend to smoke? Any particular favorites?

 

[Stogiecidal]

Thanks! Last trip down I made away with a couple Jaime Garcia Reserva Especial toros, Oliva serie V belicosos and an opus X pefecxion no. 5. If only Canada would carry the NC's the US does....oh boy!

Would be a great opening series if playoffs started today Centex :boxing:

Currently my favourite smokes are the my father no. 1 and anything padron. Recently I have been smoking the casa magna colorado robusto.

That it would be. Always love when the habs and B's meet in the playoffs. Makes for some damn good hockey to watch. Sucks about Pacioretty. Hope he heals up and plays again soon, those turnbuckles are just so dangerous when you get hit in that area of the ice.

Excellent choices on the sticks. Couple of my faves as well.

 

[Stogiecidal]

Anytime there's an original 6 matchup its always a good recipe for good hockey. B's and Habs have the rivalry for the ages. Hope so too for Pacioretty. Been huge for us.

Been open to trying new smokes. A lot of hits and misses for me along the way but its all a part of the overall enjoyment.

Welcome from the home of the Stanley Cup champs! Hopefully they will make the playoffs this year.

Any good spots to check out in Toronto? Been to The Smokin' Cigar Inc last Friday. Was pleasantly surprised with the flavour of their house blend Nicaraguan toro for the price although the second one I purchased tunneled forever. Also picked up a Joya de Nicaragua Cabinetta robusto and a Gran Habano Azteca puma. Both equally good but would definitely purchase the puma again to rest.

Next on my list to visit would be Thomas Hinds and the Cigar Bodega.

I'll be in Miami for a few days next week definitely going to visit Don Pepin's factory on Calle Ocho.

I'm on my way gentlemen :ccool:

 

[Stogiecidal]

I'm so jealous over half the time with what everyone is smoking! LOL:grin:
