Today is a double-feature: the Thompson Empressario Natural Churchill & the Arturo Fuente Curlyhead. In short, these two smokes are a hit and miss combo. The Empressario is just a letdown dog rocket, while the Curlyhead *can* be an OK mild smoke, your experience however WILL vary stick to stick per the nature of the beast, being a scrap short filler cigar. More in the video!

    I kinda like the curly head. Not a bad budget stick. But for a buck extra i can get a Sol Cubano or a CCOM label.

    I'm with Jet, the Curly Head is okay, but for the same price, or maybe a little more, I can get an El Mejor.

    I cant believe you said the "T" word.


    were you expecting something better from it?


    if you wanna go "cheap" but still smoke cigars that you arent ashamed to have in the humidor try the Flor de Oliva.
    another brand i used to smoke when i first started was Free Cuba. not bad for a buck a stick.

    Ok, so is this even kosher throwing around the T word (even though it is the T word and not the full word) on this site.

    In fact is it even Kosher that the link to the 'obsession' is listed here as his 1st posts of the day are for CCom competitors? (along w CCOM deals of the day of course).

    Yes, the Flor de Oliva is a good cigar for the money. And oddly enough, is the only one that my wife complains about aromatically. I don't notice anything about it personally but she does. Hmmm.
