Finally Sev!

[Nightstalker]

nice to hear from u again sev! how abt we make it on tue then? i know of a few places. but they're mostly in the east, near my area. not very convenient for the others.

 

any other suggestions?

[Throttle]

take my car into Sentosa, KM8 tanjung beach?

[Throttle]

or we could return to our usual Arab Street. which is also not bad at all. then i'll ride my bike

[Nightstalker]

for a weekday i think arab's better. faster for all of us to get back home after tat. hahaha...

[Throttle]

OK Cool, Wednesday evening 8-8.30pm

Arab Street (actual venue still open to suggestions)

guys.. err... cigars.. are like coffee i guess? coz for barista, we learn the aroma, flavour, acidity and one more i forgot. so if the coffee's profile is the same as the cigar, well, it might be the perfect combination.

 

 

btw i smoke cigar RARELY. usually taste the aftertase only. any suggestion on which cigar to start first?

[Throttle]

Like coffee, yes, pretty much so.....

 

A medium strength understated cigar which i like to recommend newbies is the El Rey Del Mundo Choix Supreme.

 

If you find that too intimidating, you can start with any good petite corona, I would recommend Upmann as it's one of my favourites with a burst of deep flavors but without the fuller strength of the Partagas.

[Throttle]

can tell from the bracelet, the shape the bezel and the "cyclop eye"

In the 60s, when this photo was taken, the only watch which looked like that was the Rolex Submariner. There were no cheap imitations.
