    Posted: 19 August 2006 at 1:25am
So i went out tonight and stocked my humidor that came in the mail on Wednesday.  the guy checked my ID, then took me into the walk-in humidor.  That was awesome.  I had so many choices to make and wasnt really concerned with cost, so this is what I came back with.
After hearing Mbro talk so highly of them, I decided to try a Graycliff, and boy am i glad I did.  Mine was only $11, but i got one of the smaller sizes.  i also picked up a Matasa 30th anniv.  voted best cigar in the world by the Robb Report.  also came home with an A.Fuente, H. Upmann, Ashton, CAO Gold, and a Sancho Panza.  total cost for my shopping spree was $52.26, a good day.

i know how to use my camera, but with a flash, they all just look white.  there is only one setting that doesnt use flash, and its meant for a tripod so its VERY sensitive to motion.

So if you dont inhale it and it doesnt give you a buzz or anything then whats the point? just for the taste? For the price those things better have the best taste on earth

graycliffs are definitely good, out of the "stronger" cigars i've had, it was the smoothest.  Which is nice because i prefer milder cigars, but i'm working my way up to liking the fuller bodied.

I also highly suggest some montecristo whites.  They're a pretty light bodied smoke, but gave me the best buzz evar! 

as for a more medium bodied cigar... the 5 Vegas I had the other night was great. 

Ashtons are ok, I wasn't too impressed with the couple that i've had, not really sure why.

And I have heard good things about CAO, but I haven't gotten a chance to pick any up yet.
