Great cigars

I am new to the cigar forum, having been a 47 year cigarette smoker. Today I smoked 3 cigars. The first; a Padron, Family reserve, which was excellent and I would recommend it to anyone. The second was a Monte Cristo which didn't unravel like most Connecticut wrappers do. Very Tasty. The third was a Camacho '92 which was unusual, because it had a pigtail head and a shaggy foot and was unusually tasty. Loads of flavorful smoke. All of these cigars came from the "Decadent Dozen II" sampler and I am very greatful to cigar.com for allowing me to smoke the most premier cigars on the market today.

    Something I recently learned myself. I am (was?) a 21yr cigarette smoker. I recently went to the E-cig, and I'm working on quitting all together.

    Without the smokes...Cigars. Are. BETTER!

    Anywho! Welcome to the boards! You'll love it here!

    never had that issue.

    there is no different way of processing that wrapper that would make it unravel. that usually has to do with cut and humidity.

    Sounds familiar but I don't see Decadent Dozen II among the sampler offerings on cigar.com right now. Did you buy this sampler recently? I'd like to get a look at that Camacho '92 with both a shaggy foot and pigtail head. I don't think I'm familiar with that at all.
  • From a NEWB, welcome it's a great board full of great company.

    I think it's the PE, it's the only Camacho I've seen (not that I'm an expert by any means) with a pigtail and shag foot.

    In any event, welcome and you really started with a few great sticks.
