A Dip Ambajador - nice smoke, but (at least for now) I still prefer the No. 2:

Rite of Passage!

Wow! You guy smoke some beautiful cigars....and take great pictures, too! It will be a long while before I get close to your league.

Anyway, I smoked my first ever cigar - The Griffin's. Once I learned which end to cut and which to light, and with no experience to compare with, I must say it was quite enjoyable. I think I'm going to enjoy my quest for cigar knowledge, especially with the knowledge that there are so many experience folks around here.

Next time, I'll remove the plastic wrapper and the label first.

How was the JL Budgie?

Got bitter with an inch to go and purging didn't help, very nice up to that point though.

They definitely need more time.

Sh!t Ricky that's a damn shame. You got through a fair bit before quitting.

Damn Straight, smokey joe!

I'll have to try another one, but this time without the plastic wrapper and label, to compare. Can't tell you how much fun I'm having learning about cigars from you guys. Keep the tips coming!

Thanks to whoever gave me this little maduro and apologies for forgetting again. just pulled it out of the humi to take advantage of an unexpected fine evening with some boring football match on the box. Nothing remarkable but it held a good ash

Nice Ash!

Hi PeeJay! Pardon my ignorance, but what's the benefit of a good ash? And before the UKCF comedians comment, I'm talking about cigars. (LOL)

I think it indicates that the roller did a good job RB.

Hmmm, I see. What's a roller?

RB

RB

Usually a nubile Cuban virgin who rolls the leafs on her firm thighs to make the cigar though this cigar is a bit of a mongrel so the roller could have been anyone

It's the last bit of the machine that makes the cigars. They roll down a big slide made of spinning metal tubes. Only the best ones make it to the bottom.

If your cigar gets a good ash you know it's a good one that went all the way to the bottom.
