Okay gents. (and lady, sorry cobsgirl). I am off to Hawaii in t minus one week for 7 days in maui for a family reunion. What should I bring to smoke?
about 1/4 good smokes and the rest decent smokes that you arent too worried about. when on vacation i rarely have time to sit and enjoy a smoke for a couple hours. my vacations are always on the go.
I am going for 5 cigars a day x 7 days = 35 cigars
I am also the type that spares no expense for good cigars when I am on vacation.

Choose something to match the type of drinks/food and activities you're going to do be doing!
I guess bring a few high end sticks, a bunch of okay sticks, then many shorter-not-so-important-to-you-but-still-good sticks. haha..
Since you're probably going to be on the go, you don't want too large of a cigar that you may not be able to finish just because you're moving around so much.

Diploma, Diploma, Diploma, Diploma, Diploma, Diploma, Diploma, olivia,Diploma, Diploma, Anejo,Diploma, Diploma, Diploma, Diploma, :lol:
I want to bring a bunch of diploma. I have a pretty good humidor but you know how tempermental that cigar can be out of the humidor and in transit. But since it is my life blood I will definately have to chance it.
Any Maui veterans out there that can suggest good activities/ dining. My staple vacation drink is a corona. Brooke said she is going to drink Mai Tai (sp???) the whole time.

Poi and cigars= :barf: 
I don't know anything about the cigar culture over their since I was there many years before I started smoking cigars, but it's a beautiful place to do it in!

Basicly bomb proof, and has its own humdidifying device. Mine holds about 50 or so Churchill size. Very sweet set up for the $$$. I always have mine it the truck, as I never know what I'll be doing. It floats and is waterproof, so it's even ended up in the water while fishing.
I am vacationing on Cape Cod starting Saturday, and other than one or two Opus, I will be consuming strictly contriband.

I'm guilty of the same thing as Bildo. Came out here on vacation as a kid and loved it. It reminds me of the area of Sicily where my father is from.
colonel i have the 5 stick and 15 stick case. Thanks for your endorsement of the larger one. I always felt it was too big. Ther verdict is in on cigars:
In varying quantities: Diploma, OpusX perfec. X, Cien Anos Coronas, la fontana lonsdale, cusano hermanos vintage robusto, cusano 18 robusto, camacho corojo dark figurado, c10 corona
additionally, i decided I will start the day with a nice dark cup of coffee and a hemmingway short story. Not really a big fan of the cameroon hemmingways but it is a great size for a short morning smoke so I thought I would give it a try.

Wonder what one of the Between The Lines would be like. It's roughly the same size as the Short Story.
i have smoked may of the between the lines. I actually have a the two different wrapps in my "museum box". They are a decent cigar. Definatly more eye candy thenn anything else.
I agree, taste reminds me of a Short Story or Work of Art. I keep a normal and reverse wrap in the humidor for looks. But I would never turn one down either as they are a solid smoke. :wink:
axe, what color are the caps on your reverse wraps. Both mine have the same color cap but one wraps clockwise and the other counter clockwise.
Both have the maduro cap :roll: But I'm always looking for the blondies...I wonder if there are any in Vegas ?
Ill double check what caps my two have. I heard they have everthing at casa fuente in vegas.
