if there's a chance and someone brings along a lap top (I cant becos my lap top battery burnt out) we can all watch my Habanos interactive guide to Cigars CD. It is very comprehensive and comes with many explanations and videos from agriculture to manufacturing processes to smoking and etiqette.

 

Got this CD from Miramar, the "wealthy area" of Habana where many of the International 5* hotels are located. Regret not buying a lot more becos it's only 5 Cuban Convertible Peso or about S$9 each......

i can bring my laptop for the meetup, but have to wait till my exam over...

last paper on 27th Nov...

[Throttle]

You're on Sev!

Thought I should give the regular cigar smokers a heads-up:

 

The Cohiba Pyramides Edition Limitada 2006 should be coming out anytime now. Box of 10s.

[Nightstalker]

interestin...

 

cohiba+EL = expensive smoke. haha... any idea how much its gonna cost?

[Throttle]

probably $55 - $60 each, my guess.

 

The earlier batch of Cohiba Piramides EL didnt impress me though.....

[Nightstalker]

Really hope to buy the cohiba pyramide EL, partagas d3 EL, put in my new humidor and let aged somemore haha.

[Throttle]

Hi Fellas, i'm back from sunny Gold Coast.

Time: 9pm

[Nightstalker]

[Throttle]

8pm. same place.

 

anyone?

 

Australia is a very tough plae to smoke. Had a hard time there.

The law is very tough.

Basically no smoking inside or outside or within the boundaries of any establishment. Smoking must be 4m away from nearest door or window of a building. No smoking near areas where there are children.

[Nightstalker]

[Throttle]

[paithorn]

Bro, I can't make it tonight.... will catch you next time round.... still owe you one!!

[Throttle]

Sorry tua gu sai.

 

Condivan had a special event tonite and was too crowded, we went to Skin instead.

 

Paiseh

[Nightstalker]

a nice way to end the workday wif a smoke. had a pleasant smoke wif throttle. at least the music wasnt too loud last nite. haha...

 

had another try of my fonseca no.1 last nite. much better than the one i had 2 mths back. definitely worth aging... lookin forward to tryin it again maybe 2-3 mths from now

[Throttle]

YEs, nice smoke, cheap drinks...nice waitress and got mediacorp actress there too....

 

Maybe we should make it our official cigar joint? hahahaha

[entity]

Went to Red Chamber at Pedder Building, Central, HK. Couldn't find Ciggaro, and didn't have enough time to search for the rest.

 

Red Chamber is smaller than I expected, and boxes of cigars were just squeezed into cupboards. I managed to get single sticks of Por Laranaga Petit Corona, Ramon Allones Estupendos? (SEA Regional cigar) and Punch Robusto Extra (SEA Regional cigar).

 

Apparantly even Magnum 50s are also sold out there.

[Throttle]

Cigarro is even smaller but they sell lots of aged and rare stuff by the stick. A pity that you couldnt find it. It's on the ground floor of St Georges Building to the left of Oriental Hotel facing the waterfront.

There are a lot more smaller ones but are not really worth the visit.

 

At least, it's a lot easier to smoke in HK than in Australia........haha

[Nightstalker]

i think it wont be long b4 the same applies to singapore. better enjoy our regular herfs while we still can.

 

im definitely not lookin forward to 2007 when they implement the full anti-smokin ban man!

[Throttle]

There are some new joints at Dempsey Road for cigar smoking.

(note: expensive)

 

Hacienda - open air bar with deck chairs and 65% outdoor seating under a marqee. Chiobu DJ spins at nite. Nice to chill-out but can get a little warm. Plus point = babes

3* out of 5* (DJ gets 5*)

 

Oosh - refurbished colonial house and surroundings big enough for an eventful outdoor gathering. Fine dining restaurant and bar with terrace on ground floor including an airconditioned wine connoisseur corner (Smoked there last nite) and japanese restaurant on second floor. Valet parking. Pretty upmarket (Ferrari and Mercy BMW Jag and a miserable Volvo at the carpark) but operationally still long way to go. Silly house rules. 2* out of 5*
