Black Pearl

Finally got around to smoking this cigar. The Black Pearl Rojo cigar is made in Nicaragua with Nicaraguan tobaccos. The Toro size measures six inches long with a ring gauge of 50. I did not find this cigar anything to brag about. This one had a little bite to it and did not have a very enjoyable flavor. I do not think I will be trying this one again. I did not get more than half way thru it before tossing it.

CAO


Smoked this one last week after the weather started warming up. It is a mild cigar. I just did not find this one too notable. I would not turn it down if someone offered me one, but there are other cigars for the same price that are much better.

CigarLive.com


Just joined a new cigar forum listed above. Has some great search capabilities to look for topics and discussions that may interest you. I found it searching for some advice on cabinet humidors.
I am seriously looking at one from thompsoncigar.com called the 'Mother of all Humidors'. It hold 150 loose and 16 boxes and comes with a LaVeil humidifier. The cost is $399.00 plus $36.00 shipping. The LaVeil is a $79.00 value, so I am thinking this would be a good buy. I can't find anything on EBAY close or other sites. The wife even gave me permission(seeing as how I would be using some of my bonus money from work).
