Cigar of the year (according to Mr Suckling)

[Styler]

More commercial drivel from the twit !
"I love matches - but they always go out" .
"I love the smell of Habanos in the morning" .

Monte Christ Oh !!!
Ro Booost Oh !!!

Ooooh let's role out the Castro / Trinidad / Cohiba story again, well his version anyway....
Time to drop a few names & smarm out a few well worn cliches & crap!
"the rollers are totally in tune with the tobacco crop".
Must buy one 'cos the nice man sez so!

With regards to the Castro story, I could have sworn that I read an interview with him where he said he'd never heard of the Trinidad line?!

Roughly correct: Marvin R. Shanken interview '94.

Just as a side issue here, is his pronunciation of 'roboosto' how it is generally spoken, or is it a quaint American thing??

As a newb I've always assumed it was pronounced 'row bus tow'

'roboosto' is (almost) the correct Spanish pronunciation.

'roboosto' is (almost) the correct Spanish pronunciation.

And also the Welsh, I believe!

Oh and I've just seen that you can get a months free subscription to James Suckling's web site at the moment so you can make up your own minds.

From a cigar perspective, however, I suspect that most of the videos will be wine ones. http://www.jamessuckling.com/

Exactly my opinion.
