Comment on Cigar Review – Nestor Miranda Grand Reserve Torpedo by Jason

Exactly. Snip it so you have a good-sized opening, and maybe try smoking a little slower than usual. The Torpedo tip works great as a flavor-delivery device, but if you’re not careful it can get a little hot. and thanks!

First off great picture! This sounds like a cigar right up my alley for flavors, as I didn’t hear about much leather. Riddle me this though. I find when I smoke torpedos that the smoke is too hot. Am I cutting too little of the cap??

Nothing the government, tobacco or pharmaceutical companies do revolves around your health. What your all missing is they all stand to loose a great deal of money from E-cigs. The government looses the extremely high sales tax they put on ciggs, the pharmaceutical and tobacco industries loose sales of their products and you can bet they are all going to join together and find a way to make e-ciggs more expensive.

I’ve been wanting to lose my PDR virginity quite awhile and this may be what makes it happen. Thanks for the review.

If you use a yellow Colibri Tranzpack or the smaller Zippo-sized Cargo Case/Otter Box, you may very well have no problem checking butane lighters. I’m not sure if either of these cases are still being made, but I have one of each and have checked torch lighters in both in the same suitcase MANY times and never lost either. The Colibri is a 6-inch long capsule that screws together at the middle; there is foam inside with a generic cutout. The Zippo is a smaller hinged rectangular box (5″x3″x.5″) with a clear lid and a Zippo-shaped cutout and is particularly useful for use with the Z-plus torch insert put into a Zippo housing. Both cases have the following printed clearly on them:

“Lighter in this packaging conforms to DOT-SP 14327 and may be transported in checked baggage by domestic passenger aircraft,” except the Zippo case instead lists DOT-SP 14194. So apparently there are at least TWO Dept. of Transportation Special Provisions written to allow exactly this type of item to be carried in these approved containers. I’ve seen evidence of TSA having searched my baggage but never lost any torch in several years of occasional flying. I seriously doubt any TSA agent has pulled out a DOT Regulation book and looked up either of these SPs. As “Ed” says, the lighter isn’t accessible to passengers during the flight, so it only makes sense. I hope this helps and if any of you are interested, I’d check into one or both of these items. If either or both are discontinued, they may still be found on eBay or amazon.com, but nothing is guaranteed with TSA regs these days, so one day one of mine may be confiscated.

Here is my .02
I have traveled quite a few times with my cigars and paraphernalia. My torches always make it through. I pack them in my checked luggage usually stuffed in my shoes. I don’t take my best lighter, but a torch none the less. My punch is on the lighter and also a cheapie on my key ring, sti no issues. I pack my cutter in my luggage too. And as always I carry on my cigars in my 40 count traveldor. I even take Drymistat tubes in my checked luggage. Maybe I have been lucky.Watch next time everything will get confiscated! Go figure.

Thanks , I have just been looking for info approximately this subject for ages and yours is the best I have found out so far. However, what about the bottom line? Are you certain concerning the source?|What i do not understood is in reality how you’re not really a lot more neatly-preferred than you may be right now. You’re so intelligent.

I would like to know how much the mayor was paid and by what special
Interest group to agree with such a law.
Sounds like someone is being paid to go against the US Constitution.
Perhaps politicians are above the law.
