All this talk gave me a hankering to smoke a fine handmade. Lacking a fine handmade, I decided on a mediocre handmade, a 1876 Reserve robusto. I've had these for quite a while, back when the robustos were $50 two fers from CI. Really, they are a good Dominican cigar. I sniffed it real good and just fired it up. King of the world!

Those look like a nice mild smoke. Even at the current price of 50 for $75, that's still a pretty darn good price.Kevin Keith wrote: ↑Tue Jan 29, 2019 8:53 pm All this talk gave me a hankering to smoke a fine handmade.

I might have to fire up a stick tomorrow too. I have a nice spread of them generously sent to me by @MikeDennison, and it's been a few months since I've had one.

Well well... apparently nothing is sacred it seems . You guys just dont appreciate htl is what it is . And the price of handmades !!! Jeez .... lol .

Anyway , when ya wanna slum it with the working stiffs , c'mon over to the " other " thread ..... bring a White Owl New Yorker when ya do , or at least something good

Boys, I know nothing about cigars. The first cigar I ever smoked (very recently) was, as I was informed, a handmade. And I got five of'em on Cigarbid.com for five bucks. My beginners humidor is entirely stocked with handmade cigars that I paid 1 buck apiece for. A buck? That's pretty blue collar to me!

Having a La Perla Habana Black Pearl Morado Robusto(courtesy of MD) on this cold and foggy morning. One of the more floral cigars I've had, and it's actually really nice.
