Title: Split of Caldwell Eastern Standard Silk Road (Lancero)?
Post by: nkowal on 03/10/2015 02:32 PM
Anyone interested in a split of Caldwell's Eastern Standard Silk Road (Lancero)?

I've read a few really positive reviews (Seth's Humidor: http://www.sethshumidor.com/2014/09/cigar-review-eastern-standard-silk-road.html) and it appears there were only 500 boxes made of this vitola. Boxes of 24.

Total is $135 for 12 of the Silk Roads + I'll throw in one of the three packs of Yellow Cake that SB is offering with a purchase. I'm keeping the shirt for myself though!  :biggrin:  No additional for shipping, I'll cover. If anyone has a SB coupon code I'll adjust to whatever half the price is for the deal (I couldn't find one/remember if there is one at that the moment).

PP preferred.

Try BOTL, 20% I think.

Ooooh, thanks I will, that would be a nice reduction.

Look's like a tasty cigar, unfortunately I am unable to get in on this. Good of you to put this up though. I am sure some one will jump on this quickly.

I'm in the same boat on wanting to try Caldwells, and really that's my reasoning behind this. I'm buying this blind based on my love for the vitola andRobert Caldwell saying it was his favorite of all his lines. If not, I figure someone will be interested given the limited quantity.

I really like the Eastern Standard line, even though that is a slight tweak.  I have a couple of the Marble House that is the same blend I haven't gotten too, but looking forward to them. I don't think you will be disappointed.

If I was not buying a rifle this weekend....I would be all over this as I have been itching to try the Silk Road and the Yellow Cake.

If I can't get a splitter for 12 I'd be willing to do 2x 6-packs of these or 3x 4-packs of these if people are interested in a smaller buy.

I could do a 6 pack, or 4 pack as long as I can get at least one yellow cake!

If you haven't had these yet - smoke one ROTT and stick the rest away for a year or so. GREAT NC stick!

Yeah, I'd split those up too. 6-pack might be easier, and just split the YCs 3 ways for the 6 YCs we should be getting. I'd keep 12 of the Lanceros and 2 YCs. Then up for grabs would be two packages of the following:
-6 Eastern Standard Silk Road
-2 Yellow Cakes

$56 shipped.

Not going to find them cheaper anywhere else - especially with Yellow Cake!

FYI offer still stands if anyone wants it for the other 6er + 2 Yellow Cakes. Otherwise more for me I guess!  :biggrin:

He made the Wynwoods if you've ever had those before. The factory fresh rolls from Miami with no age.

... Let's see if they really are all they're cracked up to be. 

 

So I guess this means you are buying the last 6er +2  Saurabh, right?

If it does then I say good grab and enjoy, I'll catch a next one. But if the last 6er is still available, I'll complete this split and grab it if Nick agrees of course.

 All yours!  I would've but Lancero's not my size.

OK then, what say you Nick, still want to get rid of that 6 +2, I wouldn't mind buying it from you, unless you want to work out a trade for them and then some ;-)

Or you could keep them, I wouldn't be offended or :cry: about it. I really shouldn't be buying cigars anyways, I do have more than I can store already but I can't help it :crazy:

I'm down for either purchase or trade, or neither, ha. I had planned on keeping my 12, so I don't mind moving them.
