Cigars (Warfighter Tobacco Co)

[MidnightExpre$$]

Yeah, I feel pretty fortunate that I've found a life partner who likes the same things I do. Cigars, scotch, and guns. The holy trinity LOL. Here's a couple pics of the cigar lounge to make you even more jealous...

I would have to find a new wife if mine started drinking my bourbon. I'm not good at sharing.....

I’m in the same (fortunate) boat…albeit sweet cigars, mild scotches, and shooting without hunting for her. I still think I did pretty well

Do you or anyone else recommend a sweet maduro cigar with a mellow aftertaste?

I'm fairly new to the cigar game but I've been digging the Fat Bottom Betty's over the last few months. I got a great deal on cigar bid so well worth the price.

That cigar case is sick! And I'm digging the cigar lounge, Mike. My cigar lounge is in my garage. An exhaust fan that runs through the attic . But at least I have a wood stove out there, so no complaints.

I'm still learning...not confident with recommendations. But I'm hoping the experts find this thread!

Have you tried any Acid cigars by Drew Estate? You might try grabbing a sampler pack. But for what you're asking for you might try their Kuba Kuba Maduro.

Before we put that in we would sit on the deck during nice weather and in the garage during winter. Winter really sucked LOL. Our wood stove is only good for temperatures above about 40 degrees, so we would supplement it with a propane heater. But our feet would still freeze. I don't miss those days.

3 cigar shootout.
Perdermo 20th Anniversary Maduro for the win!
Smooth, creamy, good taste.
Aged in bourbon barrels.
About a $10 cigar.

Spending too much money on shootouts, but best way to test.

I love Perdomo cigars. Their 10th anniversary is good too

I agree. We‘ve gone through our share of them. My favorite is their estate seleccion ESV maduro, but you really can’t go wrong with any of their cigars.

The bitterness and/or harsh flavors could be from the cigar being too wet.
Most retailers keep their humidors way too moist because of the foot traffic in their walk-ins. Some over humidify to compensate for transit times.

Finally got around to ordering the 6 pack sampler from warfighter. We'll see how this turns out in a week or so

I got my Warfighter 6 pack in a few days ago. Before I tap into those I have a couple of these I want to finish up first. Decent smokefor about $7 per stick

Yea I agree.
I have some cheaper frisco coming in from Perdomo to try. Anybody know if they taste better than 4$ cigars ?

Just about anything tastes better than a $4 stick LOL. Just kidding. You can actually find some really good prices online. I normally buy my smokes online from Famous Smoke. I rarely pay regular price for cigars. Check out their Cigar Monster site for daily specials.

You’re probably right about the $4 dollar cigars. They don’t have to make a box for them, so that’s where they are cutting costs … I know, to good to be true.

Yea, I use Famous-smoke also. I will check out the Cigar monster. They also give a 15% military discount if you call their 1-800 number with your order number after you order on line.

I did find some $5 cigars that are smooth, not bitter, just not as much body as some $10 sticks.

Hey don't knock those $4 sticks. I puff on the cheapies when I'm out on the Harley. Don't want to waste a good lol

Sitting on the dock of the bay! Just kidding. I'm sitting on the tailgate of my RAM "down by the river!" lol. Finally trying out one of the Warfighter cigars I got in the 6 pack sampler. First on deck is the 7.62MM. A few puffs in and it's nice and smooth with an easy draw. Off to a good start so far.

Looks like a great place and time to enjoy a relaxing smoke

It was a little chilly out today but it's not a bad place to hang out for a bit. When they put the docks out in a couple weeks it will fill up with boaters and jet skiers. There's a ferry boat that shuttles cars across the river too. When I'm in the area I like to sit out and watch the people while I have a cigar. In the better weather I'm usually on the Harley.
