Post by: axs on Thursday, January 22, 2009, 18:33:23 Do you need a cigar cutter for just one cigar? A knife would suffice for a one-off surely?
Or are you going to be a regular cigarist? Title: Re: does anyone have... Post by: sonicyouth on Thursday, January 22, 2009, 18:34:53 i want to do it properly. apparently a knife isn't as good for whatever reason.
(i.e. i want to act like a pretentious twat) Title: Re: does anyone have... Post by: axs on Thursday, January 22, 2009, 18:38:48 are you in a rush?

i'll have a gander at that website, cheers :-) Title: Re: does anyone have... Post by: axs on Thursday, January 22, 2009, 18:41:24 The Dunhill one for £195 looks nice.
Title: Re: does anyone have... Post by: suttonred on Thursday, January 22, 2009, 18:42:57 I love cohiba's And to confirm you do need a cutter, any other way you ruin it and at best end up spitting out tobacco all the time. I'm going to track down a cigar shop tomorrow as you've given me a real craving for a nice cigar cheers

As long as it slices rather than drags it should be fine. Title: Re: does anyone have... Post by: Ironside on Thursday, January 22, 2009, 18:47:30 There's a proper old school tobbaconist on Victoria Street.
The one in Westminster. I know that won't help. Sorry. Title: Re: does anyone have... Post by: flammableBen on Thursday, January 22, 2009, 18:50:24 There's one on the high street in Exeter as well. Actually it might be a bit further up on Sidwell Street. Can't remember.

I don't think Mr Youth frequents your local, luckily. Works in theory though, I've decided, despite never having cut a cigar. Title: Re: does anyone have... Post by: michael on Thursday, January 22, 2009, 22:35:54 I am quite sure I saw some cigar paraphernalia in the dusty old off license along Wood Street, though I was quite squiffy at the time so could possibly be mistaken here.
Title: Re: does anyone have... Post by: Bushey Boy on Thursday, January 22, 2009, 22:43:48 As Michael said, the wood street wine shop do a good selection of cigars and cutters. Also do a hell of a good wine selection with oxes, I go there whenever I go to families for ameal or a clients done a big deal

I thought it was all made up..... Title: Re: does anyone have... Post by: Barry Scott on Friday, January 23, 2009, 00:18:03 As michael said, along with the Bushey one, there's an offi on Wood Street that sells that kinda stuff. They also sell 85% Absinthe, so you could buy both and have a proper old fashioned gentleman's evening. B)
Title: Re: does anyone have... Post by: jayohaitchenn on Friday, January 23, 2009, 09:39:08 I've got one somewhere. Will try and dig it out later...
Title: Re: does anyone have... Post by: Danjackson10 on Friday, January 23, 2009, 11:37:27 i hope you will be having a nice cognac with that cigar?
Title: Re: does anyone have... Post by: sonicyouth on Friday, January 23, 2009, 11:40:08 cheers all. i'll have a look for the one on wood street...
given my teetotal status, no alcohol will be consumed alongside the cohiba...sorry Title: Re: does anyone have... Post by: Danjackson10 on Friday, January 23, 2009, 12:16:15 Alternatively, bite the end off Clint Eastwood style and gob the stub on the floor. thats my kinda style Title: Re: does anyone have...
