Geoff's stupid questions thread

It?s a custom roll the same vitola as the Cohiba Behike 52, some claim to be factory rejects but I don?t know if i would ever believe that.

Nor would I!

Ps..full stomach can't be overlooked..and I think it was @Simonbolivar that recommend coffee to start..I always start my cigar with a coffee now then onto a beer or whisky sour

Indeed I did recommend coffee to start the smoke, glad it's working for you too PP!

Right so it's the same shape. I could probs do that [emoji23]

I know a custom roll is basically an unbranded stogie rolled potentially by anyone. What is a "custom bhk 52'?

Ah so you think it's more about the downtime for cubans

I think a combination of that and the fact the second hand market seems to be very strong and getting stronger over the last 10 years as prices of Cubans have been shooting up!

But I get the feeling we may be at a tipping point soon.

Do you reckon cad would be less of a problem if all cigars were easily available all the time at a set price?

Apparently there was a time where there was less hoarding. When you could walk into a cigar store and find boxes a few years old.

Not me - I've become more combative and curmudgeonly

I've scoured Min Ron Nee's book but cannot find a cigar classed as curmudgeonly. Robusto, yes,but not curmudgeonly...

Just smoke my cigars whenever I feel like smoking prefer my cigars medium to full.

When I've looked at strength ratings on websites they seem to be a bit all over the place but that might depend on the site, and the opposite in my experience they become noticeably more mild as they age

Are the strength ratings usually accurate on websites for rott sticks? Do they get stronger with age?
