Thanks for the invitation. I think this one will be fun!
Thanks for the invite - I'm in!
Thanks Michael, I'm in
I will join if you will have me, would like to see what got you guys hooked on
Thanks for the invite, I'm in. Should be a fun one.
Looking forward to learning about some of these classics. I had a HdM Excaliber last night, and it was very enjoyable. Thanks for having me Michael! :biggrin: :bigthumbs:
I think Camacho and CAO should be listed as well. Count me in.
Thanks for the quick responses folks. I think it will be fun. I have sent out some invites, but if anyone else thinks you have the sticks to participate, post up. Should be a fun group.

Good call Jared. I thought about CAO, there are some I really like, especially when I started. I will add them both.
CAO was founded in 1968 and Camacho in 1961.
GUARANTEED JAMAICAN FOUNDER'S SERIES - The original Macunudo formula.

I'm not too far from Marcus so I'll swing by and try to pick a few up.
Thanks for the invite,I'll play!.
Thanks for the invite. I'm in.
Thanks for the invite bro, I'm in!
Thanks guys, this thing is filling up fast. Gonna be a good time!
I appreciate the invite and would love to play, with the new baby on the way I do not want to hold up the pass at all. Can you put me near the end, maybe I will be sleeping more by the time it gets to me?

You bet brother!
Thanks for the invite, Michael. I'm in.
I don't have a lot these aged forgotten classics, but do have a few and will certainly contribute where I can.
Best,
JB
I am in
Based on the listed brands, it looks like an ISOM pass.
Thanks for the invite Michael, but I am going to have to sit this one out.
Thanks for the invite, but I'm going to sit this one out. Y'all have fun.
Great idea for a pass.
Thanks, Michael. Looks like a fun pass and a great group of Geeks.
I'm in so long as I can be near the front end of this (first few spots). Schedule is going to be pretty busy in a month, and I wouldn't want to hold it up. If that's an issue, no hurt feelings if I sit it out and just watch.
Love to have you Bruce, I'll make sure to get you loaded up quick.
Thanks for letting me get in on this. :dancing: I've been wanting to try this for some time.
Nice seed cigar list, great group of geeks, this is going to be a fun pass.
Going to get this in the mail this week. Look over the pass order, make sure there are no issues. JoeLala, take a look, if that is not late enough let me know, we can move it further.
Thanks for playing guys!
Great list of seeds Michael!! I should be good with where I'm at! Thanks!
This should be a blast! Great group and nice starters! :bigthumbs:
Looks good to me!
Pass order fine with me, I'm "virtually" last to play.
Can't wait for the fun to start.
I'm good excited to be next in line
Nice set of starters, but you might have set the bar a little high. It's all good by me, but the cheap AF 858's have been around forever.
Pass order looks good to me!
Looks fine to me. Let's get rolling. I'm ready.
Haven't been in a pass in a long time. So remind me of the rules: Can I put in 3 POW's for that JdN because the price is about the same, right? :biggrin:

Yea, u have the general idea. ..... :crazy: :lmao: :shades:
Looks great, Michael!
You got me thinking about some of the cigars I enjoyed when I first started smoking back in the 90's...
Partagas 150 Anniversary
Partagas #10
Ashton Maduro
etc
This sounds like a geat pass. I don't have anything to offer though. Been smoking for about a year and have been swept up by the botique brands.
I'm going to launch this baby by Thursday guys. Thanks for playing, can't wait to see what everyone has laying around!
Looking forward to it.
I recruited some help from a friend at work just to make sure I had enough qualified puts. He bought me in some today. "How much age?" I asked. He replied "5 or 6 years, I guess." Looking at the cellophane, I'd say he's right.

:bigthumbs: Wow...just wow!
Those look awesome. Looks like I'm going to have to try a little harder to get some cigars aged like that.
Amber cellos are beautiful!
Man I fired off 4-5 La Gloria"s in bombs in the past couple weeks that had some yellow cellos guess I should've held on to at least 1 lol
Alright boys, this went out today. Sorry for the start delay. Should be to you Monday Chuck. Thanks for playing can't wait to watch this one.
It's a GO! :dancing:
Yellow cellos look tasty :biggrin:

He's from Cali. Probably isn't the weirdest thing he's ever smoked. :biggrin:
In the tizzy to get this out yesterday, I forgot to put any extra bags. There is plenty of room in the tupperware if needed, but I should have put some extra Boveda and bags. If anyone has to add a bag or refresh Boveda, let me know, I'll make it up to you. :)
And its off, thanks Michael for hosting. Ill try to add something in there for you when it gets around to me.

Should land today Chuck, thanks for kicking this one off for us!
Box arrived today, all is in great shape. Will quickly make puts and takes and get back out. Hopefully tomorrow.
You the man Chuck!
OK puts and takes are in, here is a little explanation why I think my puts belong. I hope these meet the spirit of the pass.
Gurkha Prisoner - say what you like about Gurkha and ask anyone and they have an opinion. They have been around for 115 years or some ridiculous period like that. While many are dog rockets the Cellar Reserve line is one of my all time favorites and easily forgotten in the fray of the Gurkha opinions
LGC Serie #5 Maduro - Another all time favorites, this, and the #6, have been a go to cigar for me since my early days in this hobby. LGC is easily a forgotten brand although they have tried recently new releases
Partagas Black - For me the poster child of full strength cigars and many people walk past them on their way to the boutiques
Punch Rare Corojo - Punch is another legacy brand lost in the sea of boutiques and the Rare Corojo is one of their finest blends
I filled the last slot in the finger bags so I threw in a few extras for the pass, awesome packing the container is sweet
Awesome puts Chuck. I agree, I keep several of the Cellar Reserve around, as they are awesome smokes. And that LGC has always been a go-to. You had the "spirit" nailed I think!
Michael, thanks I will transition tomorrow when I print the USPS label, thanks for letting me play Great pass. I look forward to seeing what else gets put in
OK, pass has been transitioned, John coming your way
Michael, thanks for the setting up and getting this pass going
Thanks Chuck! Feedback left.
thanks, will do the same
So I offloaded some junk...and tossed in an extra winner (not on the "puts" menu, just in the box) for anyone who'd like to smoke it...I bought some of these while visiting my family in the old country...its band has been removed.
This pass was a great idea and a pleasure!
Peace
JTM
Thanks man, really nice puts!! Thanks for playing.
I am back from CigarFest and looking forward to receiving this.
Sweet, thanks for the quick turnaround, feedback left!
Bruce, looking forward to your P/T!
Getting close to my turn. Can't wait to see what Bruce does on his turn. Feeling very anxious. :banghead:
Pass arrived today, safe and sound. I took an inventory and everything looks correct. (Its still early in the pass so I would hope so! :lmao: )
Bad news is that my wife has a burnt out brake bulb in her car and I need to go get it fixed tonight. I will try to do my P/T's tonight, but I hate to rush those (that's the best part of the pass) so it might take me one day. Sorry if this slows it down!
No worries Bruce. Can't wait to see!

Maybe you could, but the drive to your house was over 20 hours so I just took it local. :biggrin:
My P/T's are done, and this will go to the Post Office tomorrow morning and I'll transition it after I have the DC#. Also, as one of my takes I took the "extra winner (not on the "puts" menu, just in the box) that John threw in for anyone who'd like to smoke it". I checked with John first to confirm that this was not meant to be a tip for the moderator, but rather a cigar for someone down the line to try out. He confirmed. I've added some extra similar Puts to make up for this. I trust that is OK with everyone.
:-0 @ Bruce puts....:bigthumbs:
Nice puts and takes, that Rare Corojo Salomon is a sweet cigar
Cam, this went to the Post Office at noon yesterday, and I left the receipt with the tracking number at the office. I have transitioned it anyway, and will try to swing by the office this weekend to retrieve that. Sent Priority Mail.
Thanks for the quick flip Bruce!

Methinks this one may have gotten a little too rich for my blood. No offense meant (or taken), but I need to humbly bow out from this one.

There are allot of nice sticks to pick from. Hope I can decide which ones I want. Nice job by everyone so far :bigthumbs:
Sorry I didn't have the receipt when I transitioned the Pass, but the Tracking # is 9114901230803670101480. Looks like it might even be delivered today. That's a good way to start a Monday!

Haha, thanks for saving that one Bruce. Missed it over the weekend. That is the cool thing about this pass I think, there is something for everyone, lots of range in the box. And gonna keep getting better. I'm sure you will be more than fine Dave.
Got the package today. I will do my puts and takes tonight and get it in the mail tomorrow.
Thanks for the update Cam!

Geez what a list of sticks so far! You calling these forgotten classics??! :?:
Puts and takes done and box is ready to be mailed off in the morning. Will transfer pass as soon as I get the tracking number.
Thanks Cam. Nice work on your puts and takes. You should post a pic of the HdM if it has cello on it, that thing has almost 13 years of age on it! Thanks for getting this thing flipped and moving.
Jackal you are up! Enjoy brother.
It's in the mail Jason. Thanks for letting me in the pass, and I'll get a pic posted as soon as I can.
Well done Cam. Thanks for participating, feedback left.
Looking forward to this one
I have been more than busy these past few days / weeks and have not been following this as close as I should as a participant.
This is quite a nice pass and the list of cigars is impressive. Nice jobs on the P/Ts fellow geeks. I'm a long way down the list but I can't wait to play.
Box arrived today. I will look it over and do my P/Ts tomorrow.
Here's that pic.
great list of cigars building up. I can see it was easier going first, the choices are really tough now. but I wold be willing to hit it a second time :dancing:
Everything is packed up and is heading to the PO this afternoon.
Thanks Jason! Nice P/Ts, hope you enjoyed playing! Feedback left.
Stephen, you are up buddy!
On the way. Thanks for a great pass.
Saw you got your P/T done Stephen, nicely done!
Nice P/Ts Stephen, nicely done. That 7 year old JdN sure sounds tasty, nice pick.
I'm aiming to get this out by Wednesday, if not tomorrow. Sorry for the delay. :angel:
Sorry I didn't post up when I got it but I was a little swamped, literally, but it is obviously in Brian's hands and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Thanks a bunch Michael!
No problem bud, thanks for turning this around. Feedback left, thanks for playing!
Looks like Brian is already ready to flip this too, this thing is moving along nicely.
I have been watching this pass and geez great selection! I don't have the time on mine as some of you guys do! Nice sticks by all though :biggrin:
Pass has been transitioned, and heading out to George. :biggrin:
In today...out today... I'll bring it to John when he gets home. Thanks for having me - great pass!
Dang George, VERY interesting and awesome puts. Thanks for the quick turn. You are the man!
Lubrix box is on the way. Suppose to be there Tuesday. Delivery info in pass.
Thanks for letting me play.
Thanks,will watch for it.
Haven't kept up on this after I passed it. Just looked and seen alllthe great puts and takes. Awesome pass. Glad to have been a part of it.
Thanks for the quick turn and awesome puts there John. Awesome as always. Feedback left.
Just got the box,will have to repackage it and try and get it out tomorrow.....Looked like it stopped in Somalia for a little bit!.
Thanks for tidying up Paul, I really appreciate it!
Longhorn on it's way!.
Wow Paul, very cool puts! Hope you enjoyed the pass and thanks for fixing that box up!
Man this pass has some great sticks in it...tough calls :?:
Pass arrived today - looks like Paul did a nice job packaging this thing up. I'll turn it around this weekend. :thumbsup:
Pass is moving again - on it's way, Adam!
Michael, I put a fresh humi-pak in the box - cigars seem to be doing well despite all the miles! This was a fun concept and I appreciate you letting me participate! :thumbsup:
Cool looking forward to it, man I don't have near the age on some of my sticks that you guys do! Thanks for letting me play :smoker:
Thanks Brad, awesome P/T as always! Appreciate you touching up the humidity, this thing is getting big and still has a ways to go. I smoked one of the Manchas a few weeks ago, with some age, that thing is good! Enjoy.
You're up BDP!!!
Man I got some good sticks now since joining geeks but I don't feel worthy to be in this pass you geeks got some time on these sticks!!! :smoker: I'm ready to play and appreciate you having me Michael :bigthumbs:

You will be fine. Remember, a lot of the focus was the traditional brands, as we get so wrapped up, and rightfully so, in the new boutiques. Age is nice, but the traditional named brands that you really enjoy are welcome here.
I got the pass everything looks good at 1st glance will give it a look over tonight! Lots of really good smokes in there! :thumbsup:
Got my puts and takes done, holy crap this box is filled up to the brim with good sticks! It was some tough choices!! I will get this out Monday if all goes to plan, thanks again for having me this was a nice looking box :smoker:
Thanks Adam!
Pass went out today so it's on it's way to Joe! Transitioned to you as well buddy! Thanks again for having me it was an excellent box of smokes :thumbsup:
Just received, will work on getting this out tomorrow!!!
Puts and Takes done, working on getting this out
All set. On its way. Thanks for having me. Feedback is complete.
Thanks Joe! Awesome, moving right along!
Got the box today. I'll bust into it tonight and hopefully get it turned around tomorrow or Monday.
This pass has turned into a great reference list for me. Awesome list of great smokes
Puts and takes are in. I'll get by the PO here shortly and post the tracking number in a bit. I meant to do it yesterday, but got caught up in "honey-do's" and whatnot.
There's a story to the Fuego del Rey. Many moons ago there was a local chain of stores called Pic 'N Save based here in Jacksonville. They had 40+ stores throughout NE Florida with a couple up Georgia. I worked for them from 1988-1991, working as what they called their "Electronics Market Specialist", basically the "go-between" between the buyers and store management. They finally succumbed to competition and internal issues and starting shutting down stores in 1996. A friend and current co-worker bought a crapload of the better cigars they sold (they had a humidor in the warehouse and cigars were stored on tupper-ware like containers in the stores that sold them) He bought the Fuegos on "closeout" for $.75/5pk and they went into his and his dad's humidors. He gave me a bunch a couple of years ago. Surprisingly, they're not bad. I'd like to hear what whoever gets it and smokes it thinks.
I'm gonna tape up the box and head to the PO.
Don't know what I did or didn't do, but my "takes" didn't show up when I transitioned the pass. If anyone can fix it, I took the H. Upmann Sun Grown No. 2 (6.125 x 52, HON) Aug 2013, and the La Gloria Cubana Gilded Age Magnum (6.13x60, DR). Sorry, it's been a rough day...
:banghead:

I wanted to get the pass out Sunday via the self-service kiosk at the USPS, so it would ship Monday and not get held up by the holiday weekend. As for your "that's what she said" comment, I can forward you emails I get (completely unsolicited and unwarranted :biggrin: ) about various solutions...
:shades:
I'm going to be in Montana all next week :biggrin:, back on the 14th July. Don't expect the box will make it to me before then, but, Nick, if you do get it and ready to send before the 14th hold off so it won't get here before then. :thanx:
Happy 4th everyone :usa: :usa:
I have this pass. Will get it turned around ASAP.
P/T done for Dave and I. On its way to Joe.
Thanks for getting this turned Jared, awesome P/T. Havent seen Joe in a while, but he is a standup dude, sure he will pop up in time to get this out.
Only a few geeks to go.
I haven't been as present as I wanted on this pass but I'm still here.
Jared those P/Ts are awesome. This is a VERY nice list of cigars
I can't believe this list. It has gotten unreal. :bigthumbs:
Any word from Joe, Michael? This is starting to look strange.
Nope, not yet.....
Maybe he is on vacation? He hasn't signed on since the morning of the 9th, and the mail might have been delivered after that.
Heard from Joe, looks like he got is P/T done and he said on the road today. Thanks Joe, you made some awesome puts my friend. Nick, you are up brother!

I am having trouble pricing the Macanudo Vintage Cabinet Selection 1984 No. II (Jamaica). I don't have anything that is this old, what would you value this cigar at? Thanks Michael and Jared.
Hey guys, I got the box in a bit ago. I have not opened it yet. Later today and early tomorrow I will be making my puts and takes and try my best to get the box out tomorrow. Thanks for letting me play.
Ok guys this is what I'm thinking for puts and takes
Takes:
Partagas (ISOM) Serie D Especial Edicion Limitada 2010
Opus X Destino al Siglo Super Belicoso
Macanudo Vintage Cabinet Selection 1984 No. II (Jamaica)
Litto Gomez Diez Vintage 2010 Lancero
Ashton VSG (maybe)
Puts:
2007 Camacho Liberty
2007 Camacho Tripple Maduro
La Palina Goldie #5 (maybe what do y'all think)
Alec Bradley Fine and Rare 2013 (maybe what do y'all think)
Padron Family Reserve (don't know which one yet, maybe the 85th, if your good with that)
2012 Fuente Shark (maybe, going over options here)
2009 Bolivar Gold Medal (for sure)
La Palina is a Classic brand, but I'm not sure if the goldie is acceptable in this pass. The same thing goes for the alec bradley fine and rare
Looks good to me.
Which ones look good to you? I wasn't going to do all of the puts or do you think i need to?
Puts and Takes done. Pass transitioned and shipped with 250 insurance. Sammy, do me a favor and check all my puts once you get it. I was in kinda a hurry, if I didn't ship today it would have had to be monday.
Also I tried to add a couple of aged cigars to the pass, if you take one please have another rare or aged cigar to replace it with. I realize that I took a cigar way older than I put but this was carefully taken into consideration and I did as well as I could. Michael thanks for having me and I enjoyed this little ride. Feedback being left shortly.
Very very nice puts Nick!
Nick, wow, some really nice, I mean AWESOME puts! Can't touch the AF Anejo Shark, wish I could! Have my takes I believe but working on my puts. Will try to do an inventory and get this passed on ASAP.
Nice P/Ts Nick
Got the pass yesterday from Nick. P/T's done. Will transition tomorrow.
I did an inventory best I could, but for the life of me couldn't find the Macaundo West Minister 50 ring. but there was an old Mac that looked to be a petit lancero. Maybe miss labeled? I don't know!
I'm not sure on that one Sammy I didn't look for it. Its probably there somewhere. BTW check your pms when you get a minute pm incoming.
Looks like this!

Don't think it was in the box but not sure. Already packed up with postage to take to PO this AM.
John, see if you can find it. Also, I must have accidently clicked a box requiring a signature when I got online postage. Didn't mean to. Supposed to be there 7/23/2014. Nice box coming your way.
Michael, thanks for having me in the pass. Feedback left.
Cool Sammy! Thanks for playing. Let me know what you think of that Dona Flor, I know Jared likes them, interested to know.
That Fuente is sweet! I smoked one of the ones you sent me a couple weeks ago, loved it!
Thanks for playing Sammy! I've already spoke with John, and we have the end of the pass lined up, and I will get with Sebastien to arrange his P/T.
This has been a really fun pass!
Sébastien, once John transitions to you, feel free to work on P/T. I leave for vacation Friday, so John is going to hold the pass for a week once he gets it I think, and I can complete and mail yours once I get back.
Thanks!

Will do, no problem. Enjoy you vacation.
I would just like to point out the awesome geek generoosity in this pass. I seeded this pass with 17, yes 17 cigars. There are now 45. I did not do this pass with that intent, but WOW guys, everyone really went above and beyond. That is crazy.
Pass received today from Sammy....all looks great.....ton of cigars!
Will do P/T's this weekend, transition to Mojo66, and ship to Michael next Friday as planned.

Thanks for having me in this great pass, guys.

Virtually transitioned to you, Sébastien.

Nicely done on those P/Ts John.
Will have my P/Ts done and puts shipped to Michael ASAP.
Very nicely played John. Can't wait to get this sucker back when I get back to GA.
Done with my Puts and Takes. Hope they are up to par.
Package sent to Michael this morning with my puts +++
Transitioned the pass to him as well.
Thanks for having me in this pass.
Awesome puts brother! I will mail your takes early next week. We'll played.
Thanks again for running this pass Micheal... Its hard when your one of the first ones you lose track that the pass is still going.
Holy crap look at that list of sticks. Thanks for letting me in on this even though I had not done a pass before.
QuoteStogieDad - 7/29/2014 12:07 PM Awesome puts brother! I will mail your takes early next week. We'll played.
Happy you like them. That 14 year old cigar is just for you :biggrin: It's one of the advantages of being last, I know my puts will be your takes, literally. I think you'll like the package coming your way, should be there by Monday.
Thanks for having me in the pass.
Nice ending to a great pass.
Excellent guys. Great and fun pass Michael. Thanks for hosting and letting us all play.
That was a good one!
Pass shipping out to you today, Michael.

Thanks for having me!
Alright guys. Thank you so much for an awesome pass. I am closing this baby out shortly, and I am pretty sure I left everyone feedback. If not, please PM and I will rectify that. An awesome bunch of geeks in this one!
Once some of these other passes clear out, maybe I will devise another one. Hope you all would want to play again!
Thanks for the great pass, Michael!
Thanks for the awesome pass and I would def do another one like this.
Pass arrived back today. I will try and get some pictures up.
Sebastien, your puts arrived as well. Thanks for the extras man! I will get your takes out by tomorrow hopefully. All was fine inside the box.
Thanks again guys for participating.
Great Pass Michael :thumbsup: on another like this one!
Alright Sebastien, your puts went out today. Thanks again for playing, and the extras brother. That is a wrap on this one.

Great pass and idea. Hope you liked all the extras :).
Haha, yea there were almost 50 cigars in the box when it arrived. Crazy....:biggrin: Thanks again guys!
Thanks for moderating, Michael! Fun pass theme! :thumbsup:
Thanks for the pass brother :thumbsup:
Ok, I know it seems like this pass was completed but it wasn't, not exactly.
I got my takes from Michael today. Let me be clear, StogieDad sent them to me a while ago, it was just one of those packages that wants to travel a bit before hitting it's final destination. From Woodstock to Miami where they stayed a while basking in the sun, and then finally on to Montreal.
I'm happy to say all is well and the sticks, although a little dry, are in good shape.
Only problem is, I got 10 cigars but I could swear I only had 5 takes, I'll have to inquire about that :biggrin:
Thanks Michael, I enjoyed being in your pass, would do it again tomorrow.
