So i'm traveling to NAS Fallon Nevada this weekend for 19 days of detahment and i found this neat cigar shop online in Reno, which isnt far. It's Hatuey cigars of reno. They are a small boutique brand made by a cuban family. Theyre sizes and wrappers run the whole gamut from robusto cameroon to torpedo and perfecto maduros. A little searching on the net and these guys have pretty good reviews. Anyone heard of them or tried them? I'll definatley go in and smoke a few, if theyre good i'll get a bunch and redistribute the wealth, since thats the going phrase these days LOL

Hey just found c.com here after Christmas 2013
and was searching the forum here, Yes Hatuey is a GREAT shop, they have very nice sticks and a great comfy atmosphere, I probably go there 4-5 times a month, there always busy. hands down better then the other "Normal" B&M in town that sells the standards, and a BAR 20 feet away that you can get a drink and bring it in while you smoke
My apologies....I could not wait....after 1 day I lit up the one that had a label (bad eyesight can't read it). I was impressed....it was very good, and after only 1 day. I will be letting the others rest for at least 4 weeks. Thanks again.
Though not positive ... but now thinking about it, do/should you let the sticks you buy from a shops walk in be rested ??? I have never done that, only on mail order sticks, Hmmm
Thinking of ordering some from them. The H3 looks and sounds pretty good.
"Farmers Cigars" line - in the Cognac's (I like all the cognac lines) & The Black Pepper stick-Great after a good steak dinner
"Flor de Otero" line - All
And the "Cabinet Collection" - double wrap (barber poles)
Don't usually "buy to go" anything over the $7 mark there normally, sometimes will splurge on a higher price one to smoke while Im there though
There are a few I've had there that are Frigen Awesome, 1 is like smoking fresh roasted cashews, and the other is like smoking a nutty mocha coffee, but D@mn if I can remember what ones they were
Tony, Give me till the 20th and I'll send you a fiver of the ones I smoke as my daily sticks
Wont forget like I did with Vinny - - - - (Sorry they were so late Brother !! Hope you got them ok)
I just smoked one and it was a most enjoyable cigar. Smoked it while having some "Turtle Coffee", a caramel flavored brew. Both from honorknight 7. I don't normally drink flavored coffee's, so I turned it into "iced coffee", and it was a really great pairing.
Not necessary friend, I have their site bookmarked and will order some next month. The humidor you sent allowed me to free up one of mine, and I have paid it forward to one of the troops in the sand box. Complete "kit", and of course cigars. jbohon was kind enough to help out.
About the Humidor I re-purposed for ya though, I bought it online just for that purpose so have never seasoned it and didn't even test it out to see how or if it would close properly because of what I intended it for, also I took it apart to sand down and prime/paint before putting it back together and don't know if doing that could/would hinder its ability to work as a normal humidor should..... so PLEASE test and season it before you trust it to store sticks in, ...key word TEST, I know you would season it :P
I smoked every one I had and was not disappointed with any of them. Have to add them to next months order list. Bad honorknight 7 bad bad.....
