PCF Cigars (13 Viewers)

Here s what I got when I googled Cohiba ashtray. I don't know in the US, but here you can easily find one of those. Definitely on the pricey side of the world, but definitely worth it.

I own the one on the top right corner. Splendid.

Davidoff ashtray at my local shop was like $500
Slightly different version of this one without the branding. Looks like marble.

I have become quite frustrated trying to find a large round ceramic ashtray like you might find in a cigar lounge. I understand they mostly get these directly from brands as part of the sales relationship. I just can't seem to find something as large or as deep as I would like. I want four people to share an ashtray without having cigars remotely get near the ash as the night goes on. And I do not want one of the large stainless steel ones from Stinky. Any leads?

My local has these too. I have one circle and one square. The brand is Craftsman's Bench. But the tray itself is totally unbranded, heavy ceramic.

How does this work?

PS Edit - you'd probably want 2 of these. Mine will handle but fill up on 4 cigars and pipe ash.

Yes because it is Davidoff, their product is high end. Their pipes typically start at $1,000 and cigars can be $100 a piece.

Although for an ashtray... yes, I'd say exaggerated lol. but what do i know.

Free with purchase at cigar events. I've got so many of these I will never pay for an ashtray.

Davidoff is overpriced shit. They are so pretentious and make you feel like you're buying something special and 90% of it sucks. One shop I couldn't even look at the cigars without an appointment. They can F*** right on off.

A guy I know through worked milled me a 2 person ash tray out of a block of aluminum. it's pretty legit. You can find similar on etsy.

Did you end up finding one? I just noticed that Fox has a nice large round Tatuaje ashtray

Season 19 finished, everyone left, I won like 5 or 6 pots and finished 5th so I figured I wanted to end on a high but the Picadores was packed tighter than a brick. And then it started to rain. But I have aquavit so I have that going for me.

 

[Hot Nuts]

, which is nice.

Good excuse to be in the sun. Smoking a yardgar I've had for a while as I paint and clear coat.

I like your avatar’s shirt, it is my exact style. The pattern looks complicated but you can tell it is bargain bin….still nuts though.

When YOU see a store with 30 guys lined up that look exactly like you, you go in, yes you do, you go in.

Update on my ashtray search. I have found many options, including some of the good ones folks have mentioned here that all seem perfectly serviceable but I am just not feeling inspired. I figure I’ve invested in nice outdoor furniture, great cigars, high end cutters and lighters, I should have quality ashtrays and it’s worth taking the time to determine what that means.

So, while I continue to hunt for the right group ashtray, I’ve found what I think will be a wonderful ashtray for when I’m smoking alone, which is probably the case 8/10 times.

Haven’t put it into use yet but picked this guy up from an Etsy shop I found and I think it will be great. I like the aesthetic, our porch is up on the 2nd floor and sometimes quite windy and the curved bowl should help with that, and I think I should easily be able to have the ash of a large cigar in there without it getting near my lit cigar.

Here’s the shop: https://www.etsy.com/shop/ahauspottery

My current thought is to give this a try for a while and then maybe commission a larger one with several rests.

My first Fuente and it did not disappoint.

Fantastische! Gave this guy a spin yesterday with a lovely Plasencia (these aren’t my fave from them though) and I love it. Deep bowl could easily fit the ash from several cigars and the curve has kept all the ash in a day later.

I see this cigar thread, but I don't see the pipe thread. Where are my pipe enjoyers?

Newer to the hobby, I've got 2 Savinelli and 2 basket pipes.

Me and the boys, pic related

*Now enjoying some traditional in my Tre.

Nothing better than a tasty Pipe at good weather

But i am also waiting for a cigar Delivery. The box should arrive tomorrow. Nothing special.
I bought 7 different lower price end cigars between €5 and €10 to test a little bit. If i enjoy it i'll take a step Up.

 

[Irish]

Oooof this is good.

 

[drdr]

Does one take off the labels or do they burn up?

 

[Hot Nuts]

You never want to burn the labels. Take them off as the ash gets closer to them. Be careful while drinking though. My buddy was so buzzed he lit a cedar wrapper on the end of his cigar and was smoking it for 10 minutes before someone told him.

Mail day

RP 55 Anniversary they don't get enough love. Love this size. Plus I'm 55.

Undercrown 10.

30 of each. Smoking both as victory cigars after another Tar Heel 9th inning comeback. Walk off homer.

Though it’s often good practice to wait until the ash is around an inch from the band because the warm tobacco helps loosen the adhesive.

 

[Hot Nuts]

Something that drives me nuts is bands that are difficult to remove. Also, I absolutely hate anything on the tip of the cigar. I know it's there to protect the cigar, but it's always difficult to remove (most are taped). It does more damage than protection.

Completely agree that foot bands are ridiculous. Though I understand the reason some brands use the colored ribbon as a cheap way to differentiate varieties of a cigar without bothering with different main bands.

The long sleeves are the absolute worst though. Gimmicky and annoying. Cedar or paper.

Why does it have a large band, a secondary band, and a huge ass sleeve thing??

 

[Hot Nuts]

So they can look fancy for an extra $.01 and over price them by $6 to fool people.
