There are a bunch of things out there that are appealing. Mac's LaPalinos were appealing, but even if I wanted to, the price on those bad boys in seriously prohibitive.

It is amazing how far what you have in your humidor can go - especially if you only smoke a couple sticks a week.

I am pulling for you!

Peace of the Lord be with you.

The LaPalina Maduro Toros are only 6.50 a stick. Not that bad.

Depends on what you consider pricey and what you do for a living...Pastor may not be the highest paying gig :sh

I smoked the robusto size a few weeks ago and really dug the flavors and strength. Unfortunate that it had two huge sticks on either side of the cap that really messed with the draw. How I missed that in the store, I don't know.

Nice score, Steve!
My fave smoke, esp. El Martillo shape 5.5 x 54. Funny that sometimes they come in cello and sometimes nekkid -- no cello.

Hmmm, didn't even think of that. The one I got from the B&M was bare come to think of it. Strange.

Hadn't seen the price on the maduros, simply saw the price on the Goldies? once, never looked at the rest of them simply because I saw those price in the $18 a stick range and figured that while the maduros may not be that high, they were probably more in eth $10+ a stick range.

It isn't. We save up for a couple years to get a nice vacation, and then we mooch the expertise of friends so that we don't have to pay guides and such.

It also doesn't help when you have to come up with almost $13K in a year to pay tax errors. Recouping such a hit will take a few years.

Tell me what you think once you burn them, they are good ROTT. Sadly, they don't seem to last long enough to age.... I got a ton of them at the holidays so, I'm going to give resting them a shot.

Went by the new B&M about 30 min away. Picked up a few sticks. They threw in a older copy for free. Nice little shop. Wish it was closer.

Actually we scored a great deal. The whole box was just under $200. Otherwise it would be too rich for my blood even though they are my favorite cigars.

Couple Devil Site grabs. Nicaraguan Ligero-Laced 2nds 'H' and a 5er of Ramon Bueso Genesis the Project. Looking forward to those NLL 2nds, really enjoyed Cains so I've got high hopes for these. And of course can't have enough Genesis the Projects.

Could let Dan have all the fun...had to grab one of the RoMaCraft Catador de Los Perfectos samplers from Tobacco Locker. Hell, since there were only 50 of these made...why not? Plus it contains the unreleased Aquitaine Mode 5 (will be released next month). :dr :dr
