I've heard some really great things about their cigars and no one around here sells these. I was thinking of purchasing Panacea Red (habano) and Panacea Black (maduro)... I've expanded to include Black traditional and Green Pennsylvania Broadleaf
I was just going to do a 4 cigar sampler of both but thought I would check in here to see if there was any interest in doing a box or crate split on either before I made an order.
I don't have any special pricing or anything and would just sell based on the cost per cigar on the box or crate which looks like it averages around $6.30 a cigar. Plus shipping 5.80 for the flat rate box. $10 for Canada sounds to be the norm. Update Sounds like we have a 25% off coupon so the price should be even better!!!
Like I said I'm just gauging if there is any interest in this.
Thanks,
John
The owner, Paul Bush, is a great guy and sponsored a Geek Critique for me here in 2011.
Before you order, look around on the web for a discount code for the site. Typically you can find one for 20-25% off.
Possibly interested here
That's a good bunch right there. My favorite is the Panacea Red. Yum! Can't go wrong with any of their offerings.
Flatbed makes great tasting, excellently constructed sticks. I love the Panacea black.
I just wish that they would go back to their old bands, which I think were quite attractive.
Are you looking to buy a box of each or just one?

Sorry Canada but I'm going to keep this to the US unless someone can explain a way to get cheaper shipping.

I figured I would answer your cheaper shipping option to Canada. Main thing is to stay away from the Flat Rate postage, and just go with International First Class. If you want to use the flat rate boxes, just wrap it in brown paper. A small flat-rate sized box shouldn't cost you more than $10 to ship.

A few years ago Paul told me there was a trademark lawsuit filed by Padilla against them for those old bands and their shirt logos. He finally decided it would be cheaper to change the logos and bands rather than fight it out.
I would be willing to go in on a box split(10) of the Black Maduro. I would also like to try the Black Natural if anybody is up for a split on those also. I prefer the Torpedo or Robusto size.
Also I found a coupon code for 25% off in February so this would have to happen quick. That should equal out to around $43.50(Torpedo) per 10 pack or $40.10(Robusto) per 10 pack plus shipping. Not a bad deal
that is one fine cigar company and the owner is AWSOME...use order code friends25 to get a discount on your order....BTW his "mistakes" are actually awesome bargains as all I have ever gotten was maybe a scuffed foot...I cannot say enough good things about the owner
Very good cigars. The Red is my favorite out of their offerings I've tried.

That's a shame, but I guess that they do look a bit like the old Padilla Habano (which isn't even made any more). Now with Padilla doing everything in a lion motif, it is kind of a moot point.
QuoteStogieDad - 2/26/2014 1:27 PM

I was looking to buy at least 1 box of each (red and black/maduro) or more depending on demand here. I was going to keep at least 5 of each for myself and up to 10 depending on how it split up.
coupon of 25% off would make this even better thanks

The Achilles used a similar "P" as well. But again, now a moot point.
I'd be interested in up to a fiver of each.

If that is the case I know that is expensive shipping but would open this to Canadian friends for $10 shipping.
Ok so that gives us a box of the Black Maduro John 5, Michael 5, Troy 10. And then John and Michael 5 each on the Red. Come on geeks jump in on this
I guess everybody should agree on a size

Agreed... 1 box of black maduro robusto 5 (John), 5 (Michael), 10 (Troy)
1 box of red robusto 5 (John), 5 (Michael), 10 outstanding
Also if anyone is interested in splitting with Troy (10) on the Black Traditional.
I'll check back here later tonight.
These look good, but I absolutely cannot purchase another cigar until I sell one of my children.

Was hoping to get a few more geeks in on this! Bump for the afternoon crowd.
Can any admin move to the split/trade forum as well please.
Thanks
Guys these sound like they would be really good smokes and they are very affordable. Plus on top of that some really experienced geeks have given their nod to this also. Hell if nothing else you got cheap smokes to bomb with.
Sorry I had totry these out for myself. I just pulled the trigger and ordered 2-4packs.....robusto (habano) and pd broadleaf (torpedo) I hope my fellow botl are right about awesome these are!
I'll do a fiver of the Panacea Black
I've never tried any of this brand. What's left on the splits? I could go for 3-5 from each line.
Looks like there's 10 of the red left and Jared said he would go in for 5 of the black natural I do up to 10 of the natural if we can't get 4 geeks to split them

No problem at all... I wanted to try them out and figured others would as well and it's a lot cheaper to buy the box then the samplers... Also need to thank Roger for the 25% off coupon which will make these a steal in my opinion

John since this is grinding to a halt and we are short on the Black Natural box, if it's ok with Mike, you can just go ahead and move us to a 4 pack of the Black Natural. I would be good with that and if I want more I'll just order some myself later on. Besides that if somebody else will pick up the other 5 Black Maduro's, we can go ahead and order tonight with your Green order to save on shipping.

I'm fine with just dropping the black natural for now. I think I'll have a few hours worth of cigars with the other lines that will give me an idea of what this company is about.
Thanks! Looking forward to trying these out.
I was going to pick the other 5 up if no one was going to... I wanted to give everyone a chance first.
Let me know if you want me to cancel or not.
i also think i'm just going to close this tonight and order since everyone has had a few days to look at this
