The 1 I had before, I enjoyed. I remember the thread where people were talking about them. I wanted to get one and try it again now that I'm a little more experienced. See if my taste has changed for it.

I still like my Caliber III's more, but it's a neat little piece for travel or tupperdors.

Re: Show your latest NC purchase II!
 

Very nice pickups, Brian.
Have you had experience with Cubanitos before? Any good?
:tu

Re: Show your latest NC purchase II!
 

I had my first one today and it was fairly crappy.

Re: Show your latest NC purchase II!
 

;s
Sorry to hear; thanks for the honesty though.
Will steer away from these.
:r

Re: Show your latest NC purchase II!
 

No problem. I didn't have high expectations. It was just way too harsh. If any of them turn out decent, I'll let you know. Maybe they are just inconsistent.

Re: Show your latest NC purchase II!
 

Arambo3 and I split this purchase...gonna' smoke these sticks when get back to civilization!!!

Good stuff Brain, Andre & Jeff.

Re: Show your latest NC purchase II!
 

I suggest that both of you guys try Cohiba Pequeno's they're awesome! Great flavor in a short smoke format! only regular blend (Dominican) Cohiba that I like!

Re: Show your latest NC purchase II!
 

Look at you stepping up, Mr. Big Stuff! :r:r:r

Just kidding. Let me know how you like those.

Re: Show your latest NC purchase II!

Re: Show your latest NC purchase II!
 

Nice score Mac :tu

Andrew :dr

:jd Good lord DC....now that's a great haul, what are the 5 next to the Excalibur in the top row and the 2 that say England on them....hard to make out, those England bands look intriguing

Re: Show your latest NC purchase II!
 

Those are "CONTRABAND" from Cuban Crafters:
http://www.cubancrafters.com/bybrand_list.php/catid/119
They are fantastic! Super creamy and rich.

Also the ones that say England on them are Eric's personal smokes, from what I understand he had them blended and the band is custom made too. Nifty stuff.

Re: Show your latest NC purchase II!
 

Wow what a horrible picture, I didn't know it was so bad when I took it.
I had to snap it fast before the wife saw my newest purchase.


I hadn't seen the El Truinfador Lancero before.
2 different Kristoff Ligero Maduro vitolas (Never seen the small one before).
And one of my newest favorites the Fausto.

Re: Show your latest NC purchase II!
 

Damn!

Re: Show your latest NC purchase II!
 

Damn Brooks!! Sweet haul brother!

Re: Show your latest NC purchase II!
 

Nice pick up Brooks!!!!

I was able to score two more FFP's yesterday... :noon

Re: Show your latest NC purchase II!
 

Damn sweet haul Brooks!! :tu :tu Into those Cain F Lanceros much? :r :r

Re: Show your latest NC purchase II!
 

I told yall I liked them :)

I think these will age VERY well, esp in the tubos...gonna put some down for a LOOOONG time ;)

Re: Show your latest NC purchase II!
 

I still can't quite fathom the discontinuation of those Robusto Ts. :sad

Re: Show your latest NC purchase II!
 

Yep...My review will be up today, and I was quite surprised at how good they are (since I have not smoked many of the marca before)...

Sad really...

Re: Show your latest NC purchase II!
 

Damn Brooks! I thought i put myself in check when I bought 3 instead of five
initially. Now im gonna have to smoke one to see what the fuss is about!

Are you gonna remove the end of the tube and put the caps in a ziplock bag
or will you store them intact/sealed?

Re: Show your latest NC purchase II!
 

Re: Show your latest NC purchase II!
 

Don't know yet....the box I opened seemed like the sticks were quite wet, so I may open them all and crack the tubos (no need to take the lid totally off, the air will get in there just fine)...They are still sitting on my desk, since I have nowhere to put all of them at the moment lol!

Re: Show your latest NC purchase II!
 

Brooks, does that last Pig on the right have some damage? Looks like its missing the pigtail cap. May need to send it my way for disposal.:D

Re: Show your latest NC purchase II!
 

Have you/do you have one? If not, PM me your address :)

~brooks

Re: Show your latest NC purchase II!
 

Brooks why did you change the site from smokingstogie.com to halfwheel.com?

Re: Show your latest NC purchase II!
 

I smoked one when they first came in and yes, I think you're right about them being wet. I can't count how many times I had to relight the thing. Still a great stick, but they need to reeeeest.
