Really I never smoke but we felt like getting a cigar so we each bought one. I smoked mine with a few beers and decided I wanted more.

Grab some punch cigars next time you stop in if you do, or any cigar shop for that matter. When I first started smoking I though they were cheapies and bad cigars but they are actually a great budget cigar, the rothschild oscuro is a great cigar. Its a double Maduro which basically means the leaf its wrapped in is very ripe and will pack some good flavor and burn well.

they are pretty smooth…taste is lacking: not very strong…then you see how white the smoke is and you’ve smoked half the cigar already

I love the Edge, the maduro battalion is one of my favorites. I just got a 6 pack of Perdomos today, Ill probably let them sit for a week or 2 before I try one out.

Ive never heard of the shop you work at but Im also up in saratoga so thats not suprising, how are your guys prices down that way?
