Re: Cigar brand and model pronunciation?

My wife saw this post and she told me that when she was picking out my birthday cigars at the B&M, she was the only one pronouncing the Brand names correctly. She picked up some La Aurora Cien Anos, Illusione, Cabiguans and Padillas's.

I know! Forgot to mention she even picked up a mini Cabiguan for herself. She has been asking for some designer sunglasses though so I'm sure it'll end up costing me!

Re: Cigar brand and model pronunciation?

This thread reminds me of the random guy I quote in my sig. I was out front of a bar having a cigar and this guy came out to try and mooch a cigar off me, and proceeded to butcher the pronunciation of everything while we talked.

Question Re: Cigar brand and model pronunciation?

Very glad I found this thread, ain't the search feature nice?

I have couple others I was wondering about, no at me allowed.

Opus X - Is that 'Opus Ex' or 'Opus Equis'?
Punch - I heard this is pronounced in the Espaņol as well... 'poonch'?

Muchas Gracias, HDLH's.
