Title: Today's haul from the local B&M
Post by: cmmayo on 04/29/2012 07:48 PM
I wanted to try starting a thread where people can post their pickups from their local B&M cigar store without needing to post a brand new thread just to brag....   :biggrin:

So I treated myself to some new-ish blends:

--Aging Room M356
--Partagas 1845
--Buena Vista Edicion Limitada 2008
--Casa Fernandez Miami

...along with a 4-pack of one of the best cigars I tried in 2011:

--Winston Churchill Chartwell (I plan on taking a couple to Vegas in May)

So three of the five blends I bought were in CA's top 25, but what do they know?   :biggrin:

Good combination of sticks.  I really like the new Paratagas 1845's, the Casa Fernandez is also a good ssmoke

Last Saturday, I picked up the George A. Rico Zulu Zulu (one in each wrapper)...

Today, grabbed the following:

--Epernay Box-Press
--Viaje Late Harvest
--Viaje Exclusivo (a new bundle release)
--EloGio Serie Habano Torpedo (Gabe, the owner, called this a Cabinet Series)
--EloGio Edicion Limitada Habano
--EloGio Edicion Limitada Oscuro

The last of the group was actually a freebie that Gabe from Cigar Pointe here in San Antonio gave me when I started asking the exact names of the smokes so I could enter reviews. He let me know if I was going to review the EloGio, I should try both wrappers.

Here is my CG entry for his cigar shop: http://www.cigargeeks.com/index.php?action=places;area=shopform;shop_id=436

Very nice pick up.

Yesterday I got

Yeah, good idea, Corey. I don't get to the B&M all that often being as it's 60 miles away but when I do I usually get a few really special sticks. A thread like this will be perfect to show them off. Now all I have to do is schedule a trip to the big settlement.

I have 3 of them the M365, 1845, and Miami.  All good smokes. Like the 1845s. Picked up a bunch at a Generla Cigar launch event

Tonight is my last night in Orlando, so I picked up a few I can't find at my local:

Tatuaje Reserva 7Th
Litto Gomez Small Batch No 4
Flor de Antillies Robusto
Viaje Red Label No 1
Viaje skull and bones WMD

Have I whined enough yet about the miserable selection in my town?  :violin:

The one merchant that I have found with a walk in humidor is 75% empty at the moment awaiting a big order. The proprietor will do this when she knows she is going to a big show and placing orders.

Anyway, hopefully there will be some decent sticks come in.

Wifey said she googled cigar retailers here in town and came up with several, printing out a list and seeing what's what. There's a lounge here in town called Club Cigar, I'm wondering if they have a selection and a smoking area, will check it on the weekend.

I met my brother at a B&M the other day, because I owed him some $ for cigars he picked up for me.  Well, he landed up owing me $ by time we were done.  Got a box of L40's, some Short Story maduro's, 858's (maduro's or sun growns?), and a couple Work of Art maduro's.  We got the 6 Undercrown belicoso's for free!  It seems like every time we meet at this shop, we land up finding something rare. We've stumbled upon some FFP's and Opus X in the past.

Well, I was over in Lexington trying to get some gun work done and figured out the gunsmith had never before done the work I wanted so I left and went over to Schwab's on the other side of town. Picked up a couple of LFD Double Claro Robustos, an Illusione 888 maduro, an Ideology 262 robusto size, and a Four Kicks corona gorda. Smoked the Four Kicks on the way back to the holler. Pretty dang good cigar! This was my first of the brand and I liked it quite a bit. Have to pick up some more next time I get over that way.

Well, well, well, another trip to Schwab's today! This time I had to take my wife to the big settlement for her every-6-weeks allergy shots. She has to take a big dose of Benedryl before she gets them and winds up too sleepy to drive so I do the duty. I managed to walk away with...

Illusione mj12
Illusione 68
Room 101 Serie SA 213's x3

Those Room 101's have potential to become a new favorite.

I bought the top two at the Quarry Market Club Humidor: 255 E Basse Rd, #546, San Antonio, TX
The bottom three were purchased from the Universal City location of C.I.G.A.R.: 121 W Wright Blvd,, Universal City, TX 78148

I doubt there are any T-52's left--both I bought came out of the last box they had. All of the others should still be around and readily available from other stores, as well (excluding the Puro d'Oro, which has to come from an authorized Davidoff dealer like Club Humidor).

If you are looking for the Salomon, then I should tell you that the Molotov was the only size I saw at the Universal location. They actually kind of get the discards from the Blanco Road location, which has more of a selection. And if you go to the Blanco location, it's worth heading across 1604 north to Cigar Pointe, which has an even better selection, IMHO.

Was early for my doctors appt. (sinus infection....blech)  so I decided to stop at a great place called Red Wine and Brew.  They have one of the best Beer and Wine selections around....and they sell cigars....they have a decent selection of cigars and they do cater to a cigar smoker but it is definitely not their top priority.  They do however take care of everything perfectly And I decided to pick up a "When I am feeling better" gift....lol   So I grabbed

5 x CAO La Traviata Intrepido Maduro's
2 x H. Upmann Reserve Maduro Robusto's
3 X NUB Connecticut 358's
Bottle of Red Rock Cabernet Savignon

Haven't posted in a while, but I've been acquiring more and more smokes from the local B&Ms.  A lot of my purchases go straight into my locker at one of the local shops, but here's some that didn't escape the camera.  Bought a 5'er of TAA 2012 from my brother, he gave me a Cromagnon, got a corona double LP no. 9, and a regular Mummy box.  Also picked up a CAO Concert, Illusione MK, and 2 Oliva Melanio's.  I love the Melanio right now.

Those cigars look quite tasty, but I must say the photos themselves are spectacular.  Much better than the photos we usually get around here.

I agree.  And the Flor de las Antillas is one of my new favorites as of late.  Really hits the sweet spot on my flavor profile.  A smooth and easy smoke!

What is your local B&M?  If they have events, that is the best time to pick up cigars.

$35 is exactly half of what it would have cost without the Groupon.  As Nathan pointed out, the time to go to B&M's is during events or when they have some sort of promotion going on such as this.

Went to meet my brother at the B&M yesterday to put some cigars in our locker, and I landed up getting this.  Been waiting for it.  It's the
Destino al Siglo Sampler Blue Humidor.  It has a BBMF, 2 Opus X Tauros the Bull, and a Don Carlos Edicion de Aniversario, Double Robusto in it.  Not gonna smoke these until at least next Summer.  Merry Christmas to me!

Went to meet my brother at the B&M yesterday to put some cigars in our locker, and I landed up getting this.  Been waiting for it.  It's the
Destino al Siglo Sampler Blue Humidor.  It has a BBMF, 2 Opus X Tauros the Bull, and a Don Carlos Edicion de Aniversario, Double Robusto in it.  Not gonna smoke these until at least next Summer.  Merry Christmas to me! 


 


Very nice! How much did that set you back?

They were having a sale at the local today and I just couldn't resist! Only knocked me back $42 for the lot. Well bought a little pipe tobacco in there as well. Cigars were only around $30+

Wellllllll, I saw that the Forbidden X 13's have been shipped to big Fuente accounts this week, so I decided to go hunting.  I'm very lucky to have 2 great B&M shops within 5 minutes of where I work.  I went to my home shop, and they didn't have any.  Went by the other shop, and they had a box each of these sizes.  There was no limit, but I didn't want to be greedy.  I'm a huge Opus X fan, so I had to hunt these down.

Ya couldn't beat the prices either. Didn't care for the classic but my guy said the AB American Sungrown's were MUCH better. Haven't smoked any of these except the Don Carlos before so I'm just knocking back all kinds of first time smokes this month  :dancing:

What is your local B&M?  If they have events, that is the best time to pick up cigars.


The only event they have at mine is picking my pocket every time I walk into the place! :biggrin:

Had to go to Lexington yesterday so I stopped by Schwab's as required by my code of ethics. Checked the AF Anejo supply and they were down to two lonely No. 55's. I let them live. I picked up my usual five sticks per visit....

2 Tatuaje Tobacconists Association of America 2012
1 Tatuaje Cojonu 2012 Habano (the only one I haven't tried yet)
1 La Duena (another stick I haven't tried)
1 Quesada Octoberfest Kurz (yet another stick I haven't tried)

So it was a fruitful visit.

Picked these up at a My Father event in Broken Arrow with Jose Ortega in attendance.  The 10 sticks on the bottom row were a sampler pack for $86.  The top four on the left were freebies thrown in and I got the Tat Avion '12 for $8.50.  So for the less than a c-note I got a whole bunch of sticks with some definitie high-dollar rollers.  I'd say it was a successful night.

I had to go the big settlement for a Red Cross Logistics training session. We got out a bit early and since I was on the right side of the burg I naturally drifted over to Schwab's Pipes & Cigars. Picked up a handful of sticks...

4 Tatuaje Tobacconists Association of America 2012
2 Tatuaje Cojonu 2012 Habano
and a can of premium butane for my fancy lighters I don't use very much

On the way home I smoked one of the J21's I bought from nwb a while back. They're 3+ years old it was mighty smooth and tasty.

Wow, what a ridiculous tax.

My local guy doesn't tax me on any of the liquor or cigars he sells me. Unless they add taxes, and round to nearest dollar on their price tags.

Of course, I had to get a couple other sticks which I blame on Jeff..................

This looks like a Christmas photo to me for some reason. Like sleigh bells, and a tree on the left, with Christmas lights gleaming behind the cigars.

Damn this alcohol is strong.

 That would be this serving tray I used for a background. Made of fused glass by a local artist I find it makes for a nice background for cigars. And I did buy it for my wife at Christmas!

Post by: Vroomp on 07/01/2013 11:45 AM

Shafiqul (Scottish Tobaccos) has opened a new store in Sandy Springs called Churchill's Fine Cigars.(I posted the info in Cigar Places) The humidor isn't even finished yet but, they had a grand opening Friday and a scotch tasting hosted by Jack Smith of the Atlanta Scotch Club. Unfortunately, I couldn't make it Friday night but, I had stopped in to see Shafiqul earlier in the day and he said he had some good DE's left that would be there all weekend. Took a chance going by again today and he had Flying Feral Pigs $14, UF-13 $14, and Dirty rats for $9............ I may have to go back tomorrow for some more pigs!

 

  It's a bout 100 yards outside the perimeter on Roswell Rd.......

While my old USAF buddy and I were wandering around in Lexington on Wednesday I managed to steer the mobile cigar lounge over to Schwab's. Picked up a couple of Tatuaje Cojonu 2012 Sumatras and a fiver of the Tat TAA 2012's. When we go over to the big village again in a couple of weeks so the wife can get her allergy shots I'll see if any of the TAA 2012's are left on the shelf and maybe pick up another 5 or so.

Went by Burns today and picked up a few sticks to try I have never had but been wanting to try;

Quesada Oktoberfest Bavarian
L'Atelier Maduro
AVO Classic #9

I smoked the L'Antelier while I was there and boy was it a really good smoke. I'll be picking up a few more of these.

Had a great time over at Truly Cigars tonight with some great folks and good food. Of course there were a couple good deals on the Camachos so I couldn't resist this sampler box for $64. Especially since it came with another hat, scorpion pin, and a raffle ticket for a bottle of bourbon. Hope I win that bottle of Bullit!

QuoteThe Burn Ward - 11/20/2013  4:35 PM  Nice selections! Glad to see the original Inception band is still going around.

Sounds like you're familiar with this cigar.  Couldn't find any reviews on the site.  Do you know much about the brand?


I discovered them a while back while looking for cigar blogs. I looked into the company and found out they had to change the name because of some copyright infringement. So the "Inception" band is rare. I also read a lot of rave reviews on different blogs. So I picked some up and ended up getting one with original band and some with the new Jaimus Vu band. However I have yet to smoke one. They are pricey as well. I'll be sure to review one as soon as I smoke it.

I picked up two boxes of a new smoke by Guillermo Pena, one habano and one maduro. Guillermo is Don Pepin Garcia's nephew... My local shop had a limited run of 50 boxes, I am glad I scored two :)

Here's a review and I took a pic of one of my boxes...

For the first time in I do not even know how long, I went to a local cigar shop (that's right, in Canada!) and bought a couple sticks. My fiance decided to up the ante and picked me up a Cohiba Piramides Extra! She is awesome!

Looks like a few Blue Mountain Cigar blends, Black Label Trading co, American Kick Ass. Not sure about the last figurado? Kind of looks like a Dona Flor?

Don Wiggins is a great BOTL and carries some pretty nice select brands, including the full La Palina line usually..... Glad you scored some new smokes to try at Underground Cigars!!!!!

 

 Not a real score but,, while C.Petree.1 and I were at the local B&M having a smoke and a drink we were given one of these (thanks Travis & probably Ken Mansfield of Gurkha Cigars) just because they love us! Or, maybe it was for buying the Dragon's Milk? :biggrin:

This  cigar is filled with 100% Columbian Corojo tobacco, offering the  aficionado a rich smoking experience. This stogie, when left in a  humidor (http://www.seriouscigars.com/Travel-Humidors_Humidification_list)  the recommended length of time (a couple of weeks), lights quickly and  stays lit. If not left in the humidor, a couple of minor touch-ups may  be required. The first third of Gurkha Seduction cigars produces a nice  bittersweet cocoa flavor mixed with some coffee notes. This flavor is  enhanced with rich earthy tones and complimented by some nice baking  spices, with cinnamon being the strongest. There are also hints of  vanilla and aged rum. It has the feel of a decadent dessert cigar, one  that is to be enjoyed slowly. The second third of the smoke tends to lay  off the spices and bring the cocoa and coffee flavors to the front  lines. Sneaking in at this point is a hint of caramel with the spiciness  returning in the last third. The finale is that of true earthy tones  with nice spices to include pepper. Though the flavor changes throughout  the smoke, the spice never dies out completely. This is a very  flavorful smoke as noted by the reviews. The draw on this stogie was  said to be firm yet smooth with the burn time anywhere from 35 – 40  minutes. It stays lit even when put down and left alone for a few  minutes. The ash is a nice light color of grey and a nimble texture  withholding about a half inch before dropping off.

   Gurkha Seduction cigars offer a full body of rich flavor, combined with  an overall excellent smoking experience. It is mild enough to be  enjoyed on a daily basis. With its rich sweetness coupled with a nice  earthy, spicy flavor, the cigar is a mellow and savory smoking  experience. This is said to be a mouthwatering experience, leaving the  aficionado anticipating the next time they will be able to indulge in  this gem.

Not too much actually. The box of punch was 60$ and the short story's were 7$ each, not so far off the US price.

Had a good time with Charlie and Armando at Truly Cigars last night.  I was quite impressed with the new blend of the Vault.....

 

(http://i460.photobucket.com/albums/qq322/iqof37/P3150028_zpsbae90b97.jpg) 

 This latest “Blend from the Vault” combines select Central American  tobaccos, but with an unusual addition. According to President Charlie  Toraño, “My father and I discovered a rare Pennsylvania leaf, while on a  1998 tobacco trip. Extensive experimentation revealed it to be an  excellent enhancement to the filler tobaccos in Blend D-042 which we  recorded in the blend book in 2004. The Pennsylvania tobacco’s flavor  perfectly balanced the Nicaraguan filler combination. The original blend  had a Sumatra Ecuadorian wrapper which was a popular choice at the time  and widely available. In making some small adjustments to the original  blend, we added a Habano Ecuadorian wrapper and the result was  impressive. Blend D-042 is a powerful smoke, but with long and lingering  sweet spice notes, it is very rounded and flavorful. It’s a fitting  addition to our Vault line, complementing our runaway top-seller and  widely distributed Vault Blend A-008.”

Nice box u built there burnward... I'm salivating! Congrats on the great buy.

I had to sift through a few 2012s since they aged with the tissue paper. The 09 were all immaculate even with the tissue paper.

Still managed to hook it up though! Before joining this site I would never have thought to do some sifting, it's not being picky it's making sure we get what we pay for.

I went through 3 trays of FF Opus X 2009 DAS coffins and found some cracked ones. I asked the tobacconist who was working what they did with the busted cigars and they said they return them to the manufacturer and get reimbursed. I know it doesn't work like that but that's what his boss told him. I went through the entire humidor and found countless busted cigars, I then asked if they remove damaged cigars and he said he goes through there once a week and takes them out. Obviously someone doesn't pay much attention to what they have on the shelves.

So basically a lot of talk and blatantly obvious no action. That sucks. At my tobacconist, when he sees one he says "o I will have to smoke it". Takes it out and lights up. I never see a busted up cigar there. Makes me confident to keep with his shop. He did that with a siglo the other day...

That's usually how it works. I found a Diamond Crown with a beetle hole at a local B&M and the tobacconist gave it to one of the new guys working there. I'd have no problem lighting up a damaged cigar but I won't knowingly pay for one.

Went to Tampa/Ybor this weekend and ended up going coo coo at a B&M a few hours ago. The deal was build your own box for 20% off, so of course I had to get that deal.

Shouldnt the box be 20, not 19?  Or did it just have to be over a certain number of smokes?

They had a few sample packs left and I would have bought them all if it weren't for my trip to Rural King.  The shop owner told me he just got in the Dona's from a rep and they were all aged with yellow cellos.

 One Fuente is a regular King T and the Red Tube has a 'rare' Rosado Wrapper... The Room 101 was freebie for eating lunch at the other B&M yesterday. Spend $6.99 and get a free stick, that was a no-brainer! :biggrin:

Well, the 6th anniversary party at truly Cigars was fun and I scored pretty well this year!

 Bought a box of Burn's by RP  so I could get some raffle & food tickets and rather than take the free cigars and leather cigar holder I talked the rep outta this nice ashtray for the living room table. My friend David (FX150) showed up and dropped a nice mini bomb on me (in the ashtray) and I scored two wins outta five tickets for swag!! Also won a couple Nish Patel Thunders which I promptly gave away...... :biggrin:

Found a smoker friendly that had good beer, a small selection of wine, and an AF Anejo Reserva 60 for about 12.50. Now that I am home I wish I would have bought a couple more.

I happened upon a little run down B&M, stopped in to see what they had in stock, got to talking to the nice fellow who runs the place. After a little chat he offered me a peek into his personal walk in humidor in the back room.  :-0

I ended up walking out of the shop $425 poorer, but ended up with some jewels.

Hi!

My names Ted,

and I'm an addict.
 :cry:

I went to a local Ashton Symmetry release event. All I wanted was a couple of the new sticks. This is what I bought...

(http://i60.tinypic.com/2wrm3ra.jpg)

I was very happy. They even threw in a couple baby VSG as bodyguards (as well as a free LADC EE I smoked on site). Then I saw this guy...

(http://i62.tinypic.com/21l1kjr.jpg)

OK. Not so bad. I have his little brother at home who is probably lonely. Not too bad a splurge.

Then I saw the poor children. Won't anyone think of the children? Fuente did. Thus enabling my addiction even more. Allowing me to rationalize overspending way too much.

(http://i57.tinypic.com/mioz2t.jpg)

Yes. I am an addict. But I helped some kids today. Right?

Today's haul comes from Tobacco World where a 16th anniversary party was in full swing. I had to come home for a break but, plan to return at 6:00 for the auction and dinner. :dancing:

Meanwhile, Sean Hardiman the rep from La Flor Dominicana informed me he had found a few Diademas from 2010 under the table where their display is and pointed these out to me. Notice the nice color on the one box that was out of the cello. Of course I had to take two! :biggrin:

 Also present was Oscar Rodriguez from GTO Cigars who was kind enough to share one of his barber pole cigars with me so I felt I needed to purchase a couple others as well.

And last but, not least Sean Williams was pushing the Hermandad Costa Fuerte and urged me to give these a try. Glad he did because it was a fine smoke! That's why one is missing in the picture.........

(http://i460.photobucket.com/albums/qq322/iqof37/PB220843_zps30c258bd.jpg)

2 Sharks came from St Croix Cigar, other 2 from Rob. Got the Don Pepin, KFC and SLR at Smokedale. First time in Smokedale for me, kind of an unorganized cluster but with some searching a person can find some good stuff.

I was in a shop like that yesterday.  The owner has stuff pigeon holed  in all kinds of corners, etc so you have to dig around.  Then he told me about the stash that he doesn't put in the walk in.  I will be making a trip back

Last week I visted a shop like this, had three 2010 liberties and didn't evn have a price. Just picked a number out of thin air since it wasn't in the system (12.99). Not the best shop for knowledge and advice but good for rarer cigars, they generally don't know what they have and move stock between stores. Like a treasure hunt every few weeks.

lol that's an understatement. stuff piled on the floor all the way up to the ceiling. every time I go in there it's 30 minutes just to get my bearings back again. They usually got large shipments of Opus, which is why I guessed them. And becuase it's 2 giant humidors I find myself going back and forth between them a lot, they have volume though.

I had to run some errands today so I swung by the B&M and picked up a CAO Amazon Basin for $9.50 but hey its one I wanted to try.  I started to pick up a Mason Dixon South but wanted to look at the reviews here 1st.

Post by: timpellis on 12/18/2014 05:59 PM
Picked up a box of LFD at the local store that I have been eyeing for awhile, 139 after tax. In talking with the owner, I now have a box on Sharks on reserve tomorrow morning from 10-10:30. I think I am going to put her kid through college because they also have a full box of 2010 Liberties that with their current sale I can get for a a steal I am really trying to talk myself out of buying that one. I don't have room for it and will be gone for few days, so I am putting the decision off. Not sure I want to sink 200 bucks or so into a box of something I have never tried.  But anyways, here are the pics of my actual not potential purchase.

Post by: Mojo66 on 12/18/2014 06:06 PM

I'm pretty sure you could get folks here to split that box of Liberty. The price certainly is right.
Title: Re: Today's haul from the local B&M
Post by: timpellis on 12/18/2014 06:09 PM
I don't remember the exact number she gave me, they have some buy 6 get 1 free or something sale going on. I believe they were like 12 bucks each before the sale so, maybe 250 after tax with the potential of 20-30 off that. Long way of saying 220-250 for the box. If someone wanted to split the final cost down the middle I would pick it up, I could find room for 10, 20 is pushing it.

I am leaning towards doing it now, but it will have to wait until after christmas. I am going to confirm the price tomorrow on my way out of town and find out if that price will still be good when I get back in 2 weeks. I will let you know if I pull the trigger. This site really does enable, I never even would have known what the box looked like before joining here, it would have just been another box in the stack.

Stopped the B&M and got the last 601 warhead they had and
A SaiSaint Luis Rey Gen 2 SLR. They still have 10 Amazon Basin sticks left so I may pick up a couple if they still have them next time. The stock is getting thin because they are talking closing the door or selling the shop.

Got an email yesterday from my local that they got a new shipment from Fuente so I thought hmm maybe I'll get lucky. Sure enough, Unnamed Reserve 2014 6x60, big suckers. They had a few Tat TAA left too so I grabbed a couple of those....almost made it through December without a purchase too.

Went to Chapel Hill NC this past weekend to visit my dad.  Was able to find a place in Raleigh called "Empire Cigars"

What a great selection.  Picked up pairs of 3 cigars.  I've never seen any of these at a B & M before.  Yay!

(2) Curivari "Achilles"

(2) L'Atelier Selection Speciale

(2) EP Carillo Edition Limitada 2013

I picked those up at my local ABC liquor believe it or not they ran right around $5.50/each which is about $2-$3 cheaper than the B&M they also had a whole box of the Amazon Basin's for a little over $8 per stick vs the $9.50 @ them B&M not to bad for retail.

BTW THAT CUTTER SUCKS IMO. I am going to toss it in the billiards case or glove box as a emergency backup. Would love to find a decent combo like this that wont break the budget I like the 2-n-1 idea for sure.

I stopped by the local ABC (because it was the closest thing to a B&M around where I was) and picked up

3- Drew Estate's Liga Undercrown Robusto (smoked one on the way home so thats the reason for the -1 in the picture)

 2- Olivia Nub Cafe Espresso 4x60  

1- Olivia Nub Cafe Cappuccino 4x60

 1- Olivia Nub Cafe Macchiato 4x60

ABC price was $5.39 per Nub Cigar and $4.49 per cigar for the Undercrown Robusto's

The box purchase was actually what inspired me to try one. They looked so interesting and when I saw it in my local shop I couldn't pass it up. It was a B&M here in Central Florida, Old Times Cigars. I'll be up in Jax for the next semester though, on the 22nd.

An assortment of L&B by Oscar, L&B by Estaban, Roma Craft Cro Mag Craniums & Intemperance Breach of the Peace, and last and certainly not least Island Jims No.2

Hey Chuck I have one of those Leaf and Bean by Oscar in my humi but by God I cant figure out where to start with smoking the damn thing. Do you unwrap the thing or just light up either end, do you take off the band or smoke that to as it seems smokeable like the whole thing.... help a brother out here :confused:  :confused:

Unwrap those bad boys.  You don't want to burn your eyebrows off!  Great cigars that age well.  Had one the other night.  Oozing oil.  Very tasty!

Thanks Steve, do you know of any online retailers that sell them? I got the one I had at a B&M, might look to get some more if I fancy it after smoking it.

I was surprised that the prices pretty much matched CI's.  Usually in B&Ms they jack em up pretty good. But yeah still it made a decent dent lol. I just got excited I think when I saw them power rangers.

Picked up these 3. Not a crazy haul but the first time I've purchased for a long time. Smoking the shades with my friend right now enjoying some cold and nice weather. 

 Mobile pic uploading doesn't work I guess. The cigars were 2 undercrown shades and an lfd la noix that I'm looking forward to.

Had a some time to burn before going to the airport to pick up the SO the other day so I stopped in at Scottish Tobacco to have a smoke with my friend Akbar Alam and bumped into Patrick Vivalo of Vivalo cigars. He was nice enough to give me a sample of one of his cigars (he is considering sponsoring a GC here~!) and I couldn't resist picking up a couple of these guys as well...... :biggrin:

I went by the local tobacco store yesterday. Now this is a small town store. They sell mostly cigarettes.  They also sell electronic smokes, pipe tobacco (mass produced), etc. However, the do have to large upright humidors capable of holding about 1,000 cigars each. I would venture they have about 300 cigars total. The owner is a cigar smoker and so he has some nice brands in his humidors.
I went looking for a particular cigar I had bought from him about a year ago.  I asked the shop clerk if they had any CAOs. His reply was, "Man I don't know. I don't know anything about cigars. I just come in at 6 PM so the owner can go home".  So he opens the two humidors and say look around. I'm not finding them. So he says. "Hey, some time when he (the owner) only has one or two cigars left, he will put them in the cigar boxes in the bottom of the humidors. Why don't you look through them." So I'm rummaging through 6 or 8 stuff box of mixed cigars and I find 2 of the cigar I was looking for.  The CAO Flathead V660 Cam.

Stopped in at the typical joint for us Minnesconsin Geeks today (St. Croix Cigars in Hudson, WI) and picked up a couple humi packs for the Mild Side pass, as well as finally getting my hands on an Ashton Symmetry and Diamond Crown Maximus to try out.

Then, Brian (ninfiction) surprised me by presenting me early with his half of a swap we've been working on. I will be HARD PRESSED to fully compensate him on this one. Some truly fantastic sticks here which he was very generous to offer me!

Crowned Heads La Imperiosa Double Robusto
2x Crowned Heads Mason Dixon 2014 Southern Edition

It was better than the FFP's, Ratzillas,UF13's,L40's and the Dirty Rats, in my opinion!!!

Drew Estate event today Burns. Reluctantly paid the price because I love FFP and UF-13 and rarely have the chance to get them. Threw in the Camacho to make it a fiver.

Another box of UF13's, a box of Liga No9 Toros,and a box of Feral Flying Pigs! I'm done with my Drew Estate purchases for a while, and according to my wife I'm in danger of sleeping on the couch if I don't stop all cigar purchasing for a few months!!:(

Went out to eat with the Mrs for our anniversary (19).  Stopped at Total Wine on the way home to pick up drinks for the night.  Stopped by the humidor and grabbed a couple sticks for the night.

 RyJ is for her to try.  Picked a nice mild smoke for her first time and it was one of my favorites when I started out and wanted a mild smoke with coffee.  But I have been wanting to try a Padron 1964 for years, ever since I saw an article with a humidor full of them on Bobby Bowden's desk.  (Apparently, he never actually smoked cigars but would chew on them all the time.)  I know its crazy, but ever since I read about it years ago, then read the reviews , its been high on my wishlist of smokes.

Stopped by my local B&M and picked up a few of the 2018 LFD Super Bowl 52 Commemoratives.  La Flor Dominicana has its special Football Edition only in cigar retailers in Minnesota, the host state of the Super Bowl 52.

La Flor Dominicana Football Edition 2018 contains the same blend as the 2017 edition. The binder and filler are all Dominican. The wrapper is Ecuadoran Habano and the football design, as well as the cap and a strip on the foot, is made from Connecticut-seed tobacco also grown in Ecuador. The figurado shape is 6.5 inches by 60 ring gauge.  Only 450 boxes were made for Super Bowl 52.  Sold in boxes of 10 and most retailers are selling singles.

One of the shop guys was smoking one. He said it was mild for an LFD. He had 2 hours in on the stick and figured 20 minutes left. The are only available in MN and run $16.50 a stick.

It would be nice if the ability to add a photo were more visible so as to be intuitive and user friendly.  Like hit a photo icon and attach a photo.
