    Any Love for the Ashton Aged Maduros?

    At this point, there isn't a lot to add, other than that I've never smoked an Ashton that wasn't pretty damn good. The VSGs especially are excellent, and I'm pretty sure that every cigar I've smoked from this line (and that's more than a few) I have taken down to the nub. They are incredibly...

    OK if you had the choice between an iPhone and any other mobile phone

    Coverage is the main issue preventing me from having an iphone, but then, I live in the boonies and AT&T's network sucks once you leave the population centers in the US. I would assume that Europe, being so much denser for the most part, is pretty well covered. If that is the case, I'd go with...

    The Musical Cheese Pass

    If it's only got one day left, you can't move it now! We have to let it hit one year! :laugh: No, you're right, it looks like the pass is complete, so it probably should be moved.

    The Musical Cheese Pass

    Hey guys, sorry I've been away, but things have been absolutely frigging crazy for me. I received the Epoisses, Jeff (RH), and have tried a bit of it. I thought it was pretty good; a little salty, and maybe earthy. Very different than the cheese we have available around my neck of the woods and...

    Morning Chuckle

    After a long night of making love, he notices a photo of another man on her nightstand by the bed. He begins to worry. "Is this your husband?" he nervously asks. "No, silly," she replies, snuggling up to him. "Your boyfriend then?" he continued. "No, not at all," she says, nibbling away at...

    The Musical Cheese Pass

    OK, the package did arrive Jeff, you are far too generous! Thank you very much, sir. I will post a review of the cheese when I get a chance to try it. Oh, the evening went very well. It went so well that when she couldn't make the plane back to Utah the next morning and had to wait for the...

    Bunnahabhain Heavily Peated Signatory Unchillfiltered 1997

    My pleasure, gentlemen. For peat lovers, this puppy is spectacular! I, too, was surprised at first by the light color, but it's actually about the same color as standard Ardbeg, so I guess it's not all that crazy. It's not as yellow as the picture makes it look. There is definitely not a lot of...

    Morning Chuckle

    Bunnahabhain Heavily Peated Signatory Unchillfiltered 1997

    Purchased in AVB's 5 bottle buy recently. Bunnahabhain is an Islay distillery, but its standard output lacks the heavy peat influence of the southern Islay whiskies such as Laphroaig, Ardbeg and Lagavulin. In fact, the distillery's 12 year old is a very fresh, sea-influenced whisky that I enjoy...

    Morning Chuckle

    A very confident James Bond walks into a bar and takes a seat next to a very attractive woman. He gives her a quick glance, then casually looks at his watch for a moment. The woman notices this and asks, "Is your date running late?" "No," he replies. "Q's just given me this state-of-the-art...

    Two questions for the Minneapolis crew

    You do have a point there, but even after five beers and several doses of snuff he wasn't looking quite good enough. :sign: Thanks for understanding, guys. We'll see how it goes, but it certainly looks good so far. Holstein, huh? I lived in Battle Creek until high school. It was fine as a...

    Little Scotch buy - 5 bottles only

    Well, my peated Bunny arrived in good order today. Thanks, Ray! :thumbs: I'll try to get a review up in a few days. I'm really looking forward to trying this one.

    Two questions for the Minneapolis crew

    Update: 1. Thanks for all the suggestions everyone, and especially Mrs. Mick. We ended up going to 112 Eatery for dinner and getting a seat at the bar right away (the wait for a table was 2 hours) and had a great meal. When we left and I waited outside the facilities for her, I chatted with the...

    Spaten Optimator Dark - My new go-to beer!

    I love me some doppelbocks. Of those I've had, Celebrator is tops. Curator is also very good. For something different, try an Aventinus - it's a wheat doppel. Imagine the thick, malty, sweetness of a doppelbock plus the clovey goodness of a German wheat beer and you'll be close.

    Two questions for the Minneapolis crew

    That sounds great. I already have my Google map for the Golden Leaf, so I should be able to find my way there. Friday seems to be well sorted, thanks to all of you guys' help. A nice dinner at 112 Eatery, and Mick told me to go to one of his favorite hang-outs afterwards, some place called the...

    Two questions for the Minneapolis crew

    So how do you guys want to arrange a smoke on Saturday? Just plan a time to meet at the Golden Leaf? My lady has to fly out on Saturday, leaving me pretty much free all afternoon and evening, so whatever works best for those of you that might show up is fine with me. If we meet up before dinner...

    Two questions for the Minneapolis crew

    The Musical Cheese Pass

    I haven't weighed in due to a combination of not being on the board much lately and not really being able to figure out what's going on here. Anyway, as I told Jeff (RH) in a PM, if someone needs covered I will gladly send the cheese and sticks that Wilkey would have received to someone else...

    Two questions for the Minneapolis crew

    Hey, let's go for the best of both worlds - make sure the Filipino comes for a cigar and I can choose for myself. :laugh:
