They got me a few in this brown and a couple in Cardinal (Red) and the other colors I ordered (one was blue) weren't in yet. Hopefully I should have them next week and then I can start a thread for anyone who might want one.

Nice! I'm in for one, just too bad they don't have pink lol.

Oh I'll bet they do. I only ordered 4 colors but they do have more colors and styles. They changed the hat on these backordered ones so I just want to see that it's ok and then I'll post all the details.
With all that snow you guys got I thought maybe you'd want white so you could blend in !

Lesson learned. This is why I need to get one of those cool cigar journals. I think that'll be a good birthday request.

Fellow allergy sufferer here. I've found that a nice Neti-Pot does wonders (that and Flonase). It clears everything out and provides enough temporary relief to actually taste my cigar. I try to do it before every smoke session, even when I don't have allergies. It's kind of a ritual and I truly think it helps my palate. Gotta be careful about water sterilization, though.

I use a neti-pot almost daily, I was skeptical but after seeing my Dr about my allergies he recommended that before looking into surgery. I think I'll stick to the neti-pot now ND STEER CLEAR OF SURGERY.

Don't even go there... I don't want to see anything white for a few months. I've not been able to smoke outside comfortably for over two years with this crap weather. I don't even know what 80 feels like anymore.

Will anxiously be waiting for details on these. :encouragement:

Wednesday Afternoon & Evening. Crux Ninfamaniac...7x33. Smoked these two almost back to back on this rainy day.
Both the Natural version and the Dark started off with a quite tight draw, but in both cases after a quarter to a half inch the cigar had warmed up andthe draw was open until the end.
Both were nice smokes and should be very enjoyable on warm Spring or Summer evenings.
Either should pair well with a bucket of suds.
Burn times: An Hour and Twelve Minutes for the Natural. An Hour and Eight minutes with the Dark.

I purchased one of each a year or so ago and both the draws were tighter than Kelsey's nuts.....

I had not noticed that, I will pay a little closer attention next time I have one though.

I have tried that but it never seems to help too much and no way I could handle it daily ! I don't get it in the sinuses but usually a little wheezy in the chest with a bit of a cough. Never take any sinus meds but I do the shots once a month and that usually keeps everything in check. Cough is almost gone so I'm back to my daily smoke !
