Garcia Vega Cigars & More

Rum flavored cigars have been a favorite of mine for many years now. And if you are looking for cigar gifts for someone, this is an interesting and exciting gift to give. After a while, I thought about what it would take to make my own rum flavored cigar. So I did a bit of research and found that it is quite easy.  I like flavored cigars, but most of them are machine made and I prefer a premium cigar. It tends to have a bolder tobacco flavor, and with so many of them out there, I thought it would be nice to try infusing some with rum. So, I found a website that gave step by step instructions on how to infuse your premium cigars and it is a lot easier than I expected. So, I gave it a try. The first thing you need to do is to is select the brand of cigar that you would like to infuse. I chose my favorite premium cigar that is a medium bodied, with a connecticut shade wrapper. The next thing you do is choose your rum. I went with Ron Matusalem Platino made in the Dominican Republic. It is in the mid-range price for rums, I didn’t want to get the cheapest stuff out there, and I didn’t want to go over the top. After choosing the rum, put a small glass container into an air-tight container, then place two blocks of spanish cedar wood next to each side of the glass. The wood should be slightly higher than the top of the glass container. Pour the rum into the glass container till it is about 3/4th full. Put the cigars on top of the wooden blocks to rest above the rum. Then seal the air-tight container and let it sit for several days. You have to check the cigars to make sure they do not become to humid. After several weeks your cigars will then be infused. Easy as pie! And this makes perfect cigar gifts for all of your smoking friends.

I have smoked Macanudo Cigars for years now, and read that they came from Jamaica. That looked unusual becauce I can’t say I have heard much about Jamaican tobacco. Reputedly, Cuban immigrants brought tobacco seeds to Jamaica, as they did each where else they moved to. But due to hurricanes, labor issues and war, it’s been a difficult road for the Jamaican tobacco plant. Macanudo, which came from Jamaica is now handmade by General Cigar Company, located in Connecticut. They create quality, high end, premium cigars, including Macanudo. They use their own Connecticut shade wrappers, and various tobaccos from the Dominican Republic, Mexico and Africa for the filler and binder. These are my favorite cigars for lots of reasons, I love the sweet but spicy flavour. They’re powerful, but not overpowering. I will smoke once per day and be satisfied. There are just a few known Jamaican cigars around nowadays, and they seem hard to come by. If the others taste as well as a Macanudo, I may switch, but for now I’m sticking to what I adore.

Usually a outstanding premium cigar can be rather dear.  This will make it very troubling to become a true aficionado for the average blue-collar worker.  Regardless, the status of being a real connoisseur of premium stogies should never be limited to the higher class.  In brief no one should have to miss a great premium cigar. Some prefer Backwoods Cigars, which are not premium, but have a terrific palatte.  Luckily , there are one or two guidelines to save your cash when wanting to buy fine stogies.  Research and techinque in buying can save you plenty on your tops.  If you play it intelligently, you can get around the high costs.  Rather than buying one cigar each 2 or three weeks, begin by finding the perfect cigar for you.  Then, save up for a few weeks, or maybe months if the requirement be.  After you have a substantial sum of money put back, contact your local smoke shop.  If there is not one in your area, try surrounding areas.  Each large town has 1 wonderful smoke shop.  When you have located it, talk to the owner, not the assistant. Tell the owner that you want a couple of boxes or maybe a case of a selected brand and that if they will give you a price break, you’ll make this, and all future purchases, at their shop.  Unless the owner is the stingiest individual in the world, he or she will go for it.  After you make your purchase, begin saving up again.  You will generally realize that you save up enough to make your next purchase before you finish off your current stash.  This will keep you ahead of the game and give you the ability to try new smokes.  Save your Coins, naturally, this sounds daft at first.  However, as it seems, the general public end up losing more than 30 greenbacks worth of change each month.  People who don’t lose it just chuck it to the side somewhere where it ends up getting lost.  You are able to afford 3 decent smokes in just change.  Make a studied effort to put the change away in a selected can or jar until the end of the week.  You might be surprised how much you end up with.  shop around, all too commonly we see that one stunning stogie.  You know the one, the peerlessly wrapped, oily slick, dark chocolate Robusto.  It’s so attractive that we just have to buy it on sight.  This is a big no-no.  Be aware of the cigar, the brand and the format.  Then, return home and do a Net search and see what you come up with.  Check all the discount internet sites.  You are nearly sure to find the one you are looking for at a far less cost.

Well, St. Louis has accepted a smoking ban for all public facilities, with only minimum exceptions. I am so done with my legal rights being abolished, I am disgusted. I cannot fathom why non-smokers have such a sharp conviction on what we smokers are doing. I comprehend that smoking is unsafe, but I made a conscience selection when I started smoking, aware of the fact it was bad. Just because non-smokers want me to give it up, will not mean that it will happen. Smoking in pubs has been a allowance, but most restaurants provide a accepted smoking area. If you prefer not to to breathe in the smoke, don’t sit in the smoking area, you are not coerced to sit in that section. And as well as the jobholers of these bars that comment they are distressed by second hand smoke, what a joke. I was employeed in the restaurant business for over 10 years, and I know that the majority of theco-workers were smokers.  Interacting with people, tends to, initiates you to inhale.  Also, I have never heard any non-smoking co-worker ever protest about smoking while at work in the smoking area. Putting a smoking restriction in restaurants and bars, will only save me money, for I won’t go out after the first of the year.

I have concluded this year to beg for basic gifts that my wife can pick out easily for me. My selection, as always, is my adored smoke from bolivar-cigars.net. She won’t even have to leave the condo, she can go on the internet (I have all my favorites sites saved) and throw in the order there. As far as more gifts, she can go to the nearest store and pick something up. She says to me every holiday that I am totally complicated guy to get gifts for. But we have been married for over 15 years! And if she doesn’t know the things I like by now, I just don’t know. I continuously say every year, “get me smokes”, I puff on 1 or 2 per day, and that adds up. I have a humidor for holding my smokes, “what’s that for?” my love askes. Well my beloved, it’s to keep my stogies refreshed. So, if you get me smokes for December I can store them in there for a few months and remove a cigar when I am ready to enjoy one. Although I have to say, I got lucky last year, my love purchased me a lighter that was ingraved with my initials. The prior year, she bought me a fishing pole, because I said I would like to go fishing again someday. Well, I went fishing one time in two years, but guess what, I still puff 1-2 smokes every day. Well what do I want for christmas this year? I want Smokes, and whatever else would just be an added delight.

The typical method of categorizing cigars is by the method in which they are made. Cigars are either rolled by hand, or manufactured by machines. The novice smoker may be tempted to start by trying those machine made brands sold in Drug Stores, such as El Producto. However, the Beginner should consider spending a few more pennies and moving up to hand rolled cigars, which are sold on the internet or at a local tobacconist.

Daily Smokers Vs Connoisseurs
MostIndividual cigar smokers have their own specific tastes, and have their own individual bugeting. Those who enjoy smoking many cigars per day may need an “everyday” cigar that is less expensive. Therefore, the taste and cost of machine made cigars can be very appealing to some smokers. However, to the aspiring or experienced connoisseurs, the ones who enjoy an occasional cigar as a special treat, the hand rolled cigar is worth every cent.
