Lars Tetens

If you watch parts 3 and 4, they are actually spitting after each draw because the sticks are so bad. The best quote is: "They taste like flowers. With shit on them."

I'd rather smoke a new car air freshener instead...:arghhhh:

Those guys do some funny reviews. The special shaving addition to a show was the best.

That is a ringing endorsement.

Makes me want to gag rather than run out and by his product but it seems to have snagged your interest since you're now actively seeking out his cigars, so perhaps the writer can claim some success.

For the record I never meant that I believed the marketing, I just have never studied it and have been wrong about things in the past. I'm very skeptical (to the point where I'm sure that it is purely marketing mind you).

And the reason I want to try one or two of his blends is only to give them a fair chance BEFORE bashing them.

And that is how it should be. However, I have had 10 or 12 of these things and never ever could bring myself to light one up. The aroma of the oils is quite pungent.

Fair enough. I'll drink to that.

Dear Dr. Dave,


I really enjoy Lars Teten cigars, but they're extremely expensive. Are there any cheaper cigars that offer the same smoking experience?

Joey Pouser



Dear Pouser,


When experienced cigar smokers discuss the origin of their favorite smokes the location they mention most often is, of course, Utica, New York. The fragrance of a Lars Teten cigar has been compared to the scent of a tire fire in the basement of a whorehouse. While most well known cigar makers have only been rolling smokes for a century or two, Lars has nearly a decade of experience creating his incomparable cigars. No other cigar has the distinct combination of sloppy rolling, smelly perfumes, outrageous prices and pure hyperbole that makes smoking a Lars a unique experience.


The Hittman Chronicle has developed a secret recipe that will let you make a whole box of Faux Lars for less than you'd pay for one of his sticks. You'll find everything you need at the drugstore. Start with a box of El Productos. (50/$12). Then find some perfume that smells like your grandmother in August. If it costs more than $5/quart keep shopping. Finally, pick up a small package of urinal cakes.


Dip the cigars in the cologne once a day for three weeks. That will get you most, but not all of that famous Lars flavor. The real secret (I shouldn't be giving this valuable information away for free) is as follows:


Crack open the credo in your humidor. Remove and discard all the green stuff in it. Crush a urinal cake and mash it in to the credo. Now fill the humidor with your Lars Productos. Let them age for at least two weeks before smoking one. NOW you have the authentic flavor of a Lars, at a fraction of the price!

Acid.

hafta agree. the Lars Shorty was probably...IMO their best smoke. i really don't enjoy an infused stick but i have have smoke these ans acids......that being admitted...i'd smoke lars. oh yeah i did win a lt wallet and it was good. btw....steven tyler from aerosmith also bought into the company and owned 20+% fromk what i last knew(04).

That was just part 1. I believe there are 4 parts to the whole review. You should check out thier other reviews too!

I remember during the boom Thompsons featured his cigars in their catalog. You would think these things were made of gold for as much as they were charging. You could by some Fuentes for cheaper. Now I don't see anyone advertising his smokes.

Go figure.
