Tat tubos (I'm trying to get some)
Tat Havana (I have 2 of them)
Montecristo Platinum 1999 Tubos (I have one right now)
Xikar Xi (I'm deciding between this and a Palio)

I'm jealous!!!

My local B&M sells both tubos if you're in need.

I've had a red tubo resting for 10 days that I'm smoking after work today. But the one I just got will sit in for a good 6 weeks I'm sure.

The Palio Vs Xikar for me it's how much do you want to take off the cigar. Palios are great for a little bit and Xikar's are just monsters. The Xikar is smoother by far. The Palio has much more resistance.

I found the platinum 1999 tubos quite good, I did downsize to the rothschilds instead of the churchills though.

Yes Chingas but my humidor can't take anymore and neither can my bank account so that's my big last haul for at least ....6 weeks.

Nice pickups. I have yet to try an OpusX. They are way too expensive at our B&M's. I never think about it when it comes to ordering online. *Writes them on his list of next purchases *

Keith, you pretty much posted all the info, I know for a fact that they use the same wrapper as the 1922's though. Pelo de Oro or whatever.

Uses Pelo de Oro (one of only two dpg sticks, along with the 2009 Tat La Verite being released next year)...BIG fraker, very dark wrapper, and interestingly, the coffins smell quite a bit like varnish...
