i got the 3 on the left from Tobaccos of Hawaii on Beretania in moilili
the 2 on the right are my last ones from ordering online
much more expensive to buy locally, but what other option do I have
I guess I'll be smoking less, which may be a good thing
I'll have to request some Cubans from a friend next time she comes to town which is quite often.  so maybe I'll be enjoying more Cubans, which may be a good thing too

That undercrown maduro is my favorite cigar. Drew estate is such an awesome cigar brand. This online cigar ban sucks. Those cigars go for like $10 a stick at tamuras, ridiculous.

I have not tried it yet but looks and smells good. Nica Rustica looks good too
I bought those 3 cigars for $32.  online would've got me maybe 5 cigars for same price
went Tamura's yesterday and got 2 cigars for $20.
the Punch was $9. same one online would be 5 for $25
crazy  :crazy:

went to CIgar Cigar
turns out the owner is a Mustang guy, owns a Shelby GT.  so when I pulled up in my California Special, we had something in common
good selection of smokes I got a Arturo Fuente and a Alec Bradley
the Fuente was great! smooth, great construction as always, and it was powerful. had to lie down after this one

Arturo Fuente Rosado Gran Reserva

Haven’t had one of those Fuente Hemingway short stories in a while. Hits the spot without dragging out the experience for too long.

Liga Privada Nasty Fritas is a medium to full bodied smaller cigar that has a great taste and gets pretty strong by the last third or so. nice construction
great for when I just want a 30 minute cigar.  on the more affordable end. one of my current favorites
made by Drew Estates, they also make Undercrown cigars
I also have a Liga Privada Papas Fritas which I have not tried yet

Miss those Montecristos I used to get abroad. If you haven't already had a chance check out the Cohiba Maduros. One of the most faked lines ever but there's a reason.

got a few more of my favorites and a new one that I never tried before.  non-Cuban of course  :D
Papas Fritas, Arturo Fuente Gran Reserva, Punch Clasico, and new one Whiskey D which I didn't really care for.  kept going out and taste was too much sweet for my taste. but at least I know not to get that one again. my own personal opinion.  the rest are great. highly recommend those

The good stuff. Arturo Fuente
Chateau Fuente Queen B & Cuban Belicoso.  (not from Cuba, that's just the name of the cigar, but still a great tasting cigar)

Having a 711 special today.
Backwoods Russian Cream.
I bought it from 711 on the way home from the range last Sunday.
It's an ugly little stick that looks like something that Josey Wales would smoke. But looks can be deceiving.
For 2 bucks, it's a guilty pleasure.
Back in the early 80s I used to puff Antonio y cleopatra on the way home from Schofield combat pistol shoots. I don't see those around any more.

LA Gloria Cubana and some mediocre brandy vsop to celebrate anything. Traditional but satisfying.
