So me and the wife go up to the store to get beer.  When we get home there's a box on the doorstep that had come in the mail.  It being another thunderstorm-ridden afternoon, the return address label had got wet and the sender's name had gotten smudged beyond all recognition.  I take the box inside and start to open it.  The wife asks who it's from.  I say "I don't know."  She says in pseudo-seriousness "What if it's a bomb?  Go open it outside!"

Well, I did ('cuz Lord knows I've pissed plenty off over the years and you never know :shades: ...).  It was indeed a bomb, but one of the nice kind, from our good friend Armin (kola).  He included a nice note that read in part:  "You were the first to welcome me to Cigar Geeks, and took the time out to make me feel welcome with your PMs.  I really appreciated that.  I also get a kick out of your posts...you're a hoot!"

Makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. :biggrin: I love you, man!

So what's the unbanded one?

The unbranded one is a Gran Habano Factory 2nds Robusto. In my opinion, them ain't no seconds ... I hope you enjoy it as much as I have.

"Sometimes when I reflect back on all the beer I drink I feel ashamed - Then I look into the glass and think about the workers in the brewery and all of their hopes and dreams. If I didn't drink this beer, they might be out of work and their dreams would be shattered. Then I say to myself, 'It is better that I drink this beer and let their dreams come true than be selfish and worry about my liver.'" -Jack Handy

Yeah, but it all makes sense when that bomb goes ka-boom!

My understanding is that guapo means "handsome, fond of courting women". Funny thing to call a cigar ... I wonder if Pete Johnson (the blender) knew Monica  :confused:  :biggrin:

Nice bomb.
Funny how your wife wanted you to open outside vs. in the house, but did not consider the risk to your personal safety opening it in the first place.  :lmao:
