JBones Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 I've got a Oliva Connecticut and a Graycliff Platinum for this weekend. I bought the Graycliff at a booth during the wine festival we went to last weekend. I had never heard of them and I figured I was getting ripped off by paying $6 for one; I just looked them up online and they are selling for $15, guess I got a really good deal and now I'm excited about it.

myndcraft Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 You got a really good deal on the Graycliff they are a really great cigar. Not sure what I will pull out this weekend... probably an Oliva and something from the Acid lineup depending on my mood. Link to comment
JBones Posted October 12, 2012 Author Share Posted October 12, 2012 My wife enjoys a cigar every know and then, so I used that to my advantage. We had a hail storm that demolished our fire pit about a month ago and we were going to wait until next spring to get a new one. I used the Oliva Connecticut as bait to get her to let me build a new one today, so we can smoke by the fire tonight. Follow @GolfspyBones Link to comment

Benny Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 Don't know the name - it was given to me. But it was quite small and apparently only costed $2 USD, which might explain the taste Link to comment
Flv02 Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 haha And it wasnt on the weekend but I was walking around the city yesterday and me and my buddies stumbled across a cigar shop. I always want to try the Nubs and I had one. Perfect cigar for the city. 4 inches long but 64 gauge. I used a V-cut and it was perfect. LASTED FOREVER. Just an idea for you guys if you visit a city and want to walk around for awhile.

fsav Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 Have a nice tourney called mean 18 (scramble) coming up saturday. as it tells by the name the course is set up from the tips and plays the hardest pin positions then they blow the greens out to a 12-13 (and yes I know what 12-13 is). anyways,its a great tourney and two years ago with the wind they had to move 7 pin positions due to the ball not stopping anywhere near the hole. I have a friend who indulges and we will be enjoying a hoyo de monterrey epicure No.1, a quintero brevas, and if time allows a romeo y julieta julieta #6. CAN'T WAIT!!!!!!!! Iam going to try and grab a few recommended beers from Cigar afic. dogfish noble rot and or Stone - old gaurdian Link to comment

Flv02 Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 I'm still trying to figure out what my Sunday smoke is going to be. I usually save my good smokes for Sunday nights without a bunch of the guys, but I'm conflicted haha. I think I might go with an Oliva V-Series.

Flv02 Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 It was a very very very good cigar. It had a great draw and it had a flavor that were earthy with hints of coffee. I enjoyed it a lot.

RoverRick Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 While I officially gave up tobacco at the first of the year, I fell off the wagon in May, and started up again. I do chewing tobacco, however, I am headed over for a quick trip to Europe next weekend for 10 days and the use of chewing tobacco is not socially acceptable. Not that it really is here. So i broke out the pipe again and am weening myself away from the chew. I was actually interested in cigars and have smoked a few on the course. I read the Cigars 101 and I have a couple of samplers on the way. They will be here before the trip. Most of what I got were the Naturals and Maduros, so I will see how it goes. I know they have a lot of cigars and dirt cheap over there so I will have to check them out. Edit: Trip delayed until end of November because of hurricane.
