    Default Cigar Help

    Well need some relatively cheap cigars just for a few lads n a poker game, create an atmosphere and stink up the place a bit.

    Looking for something on the lines of 5" and around a 40-42 ring gauge, but relatively cheap (eg about 15 quid for ten).

    Saw some on there, but not sure what any of them are like or the sizes/quality of smoke ect. Maybe something like Henri Wintermans Half Corona ?


    Cheers for any help, not experianced in cigars atall, but its my turn to pick some up, rather than the booze

    i'm sure we sell those ones at work for a few quid for a pack of 5, and they arent really massive poker style cigars, just your standard off liscense ones along with the cigarettes

    i might be thinking of something else, but henri wintermans definitly makes little ones

    Ah ok, not really looking for giant cigars, but anything from 4" + and 36-40+ ring gauge is what i can go from. Will have a look for any pictures of them anyway

    head to your local shop then, most decent fag displays have a few types of cigars. usually around £3 for 5 so even if its £6 for the 10 you want, its an expense you can more or less forget about and isnt worth fiddling with online retailers to get it cheaper (and probably not possible with the P+P)

    Go down to your local cogar shop and pick up some 'Romeo et Julieta' ciagrs. They are a bit pricey but you will never look back. I stock up on them for weddings (the only time I smoke cigars, apart from poker nights) and they go down a treat with everyone.

    Probably going to pick up some cheapo ones somewhere, forgotten about them for a while.
