BHK 52 currently.. Then comes probably the L40 I just love it now these are rott aging it is real hard to pick a favorite.. Lately I been smoking alot of FLor de antillas, Quesada Seleccion espana, BHK 52, T52's.. I had a CYB wasn't bad thinking about picking up some of the coronas heard they were pretty good.. I smoke Padron's once and awhile but I just can't pony up when you can get CC's for that price so I smoke some 1964's, Family reserve etc once and awhile every 2 weeks or so maybe... I collect OpusX's they are far from my favorite but I am drawn to the collectors aspect of them along with some CC's etc...

I like a lot of the Drew Estate Unico stuff but its a pain to get them so I don't smoke them every day... o ya believe it or not I like smoking the short filler papas fritas for smokes while in time sensitive spots etc they are more like a carry around smoke.. I smoke alot of different cigars so I guess my favorite cigar depends on my mood but I have been getting into the floral smooth sweet raisin smokes lately..

Welcome from North Dakota. NOLA is one of my favorite places on earth. Good eats and Bourbon Street.

Hello :welcome: from TN. We are glad you have joined us. I know you will enjoy the brotherhood here. My daughter and family live in Baton Rouge. Next time I am down maybe we can get together for a smoke.

Welcome! I was in NOLA last weekend with my wife and the in-laws...it was my first time and I really enjoyed it. Great food and strong drinks, haha! Only got to stop by one shop and didn't get a chance to smoke...checked out Mayan Imports on Magazine. They had a decent selection it seemed. Wish I had been able to stop in a couple other places but it wasn't my trip so I didn't get to call the shots :wink:

Thanks for the welcoming..

I been smoking for awhile :) never really could afford premium cigars+storage until the last 5-10 years... Then just started getting into it kinda heavy lately...


Just wondering if anyone has any suggestions for cigars that are inline with Tatuaje TAA 2012, Cohiba BHK, Padron 3000 that I should check out? I really like that smooth creamy sweet vanilla or raisin profile... The Tatuaje TAA 2012 I really liked.. I have already tried all of the Drew Estate cigars, I am still exploring the Tatuaje stuff some of the stuff just is so different from the TAA 2012. I liked the CYB my father limited was nice I use to be heavy into the Dominican stuff but my taste changed.. :) I put the 3000 padron in there because it is cheaper smoke that actually was very nice had some flavor to it.. I noticed sometimes the 1964's and some of the padrons get a bit grassy which I dislike I don't mind if I can age that out / tone it down.. I dislike the Davidoff's( a bit grassy ) I prefer mainly medium to full or full :) but I don't mind more mild smokes like the JDN Cabinetta which was kinda a surprise :) it doesn't have the strength I like but the flavor wasn't bad... I have some Goldies on the way.. Going to check the new release of those out...

My latest haul ( so you get an idea )

CYB Corona real
Herrara Short Corona Gorda
LAT 46
Padron Delicias

I am limited on the CC's so I have to choose wisely and moderated so I can't go get 5 boxes of CC's whenever I want :(

I had no idea that I knew who you were. This is a great BOTL guys, I actually spent quite a bit of time talking to him at an event. Welcome to the board brohamity, you will fit in just fine here. Well, maybe not fine but if you push hard enough you can fit a square through a circle hole. Hahaha! I am looking forward to seeing you around. ;)
