Damn boys!! Sweet hauls!!

Re: Show your latest NC purchase III!
 

Not yet!!! :D

Mine came in a bag also, but the boxes are in great shape!! :tu

Re: Show your latest NC purchase III!
 

They only sent me two as well, but they did not charge me shipping, so that is a plus. I probably would have look elsewhere for a third box if I knew I wasn't going to get three, but life goes on. I probably don't have room for a third box anyway. :r

I did ask them to mail them in a box though. They sent the DDs in a bubble mailer and I did not want the mini monsters to travel across the country like that as well.

Picked up these little diddies the other day From Burns in TN

Re: Show your latest NC purchase III!
 

Same deal from the same vendor and I too was a little annoyed that I was not given prior notice especially since they up sold me to the third by throwing in the free shipping. Had I known earlier that they wouldn't be able to fulfill the whole order I could have bought a third box from another vendor prior to everyone selling out. Granted in a week or two the flood gates will have opened and there will be plenty but it still would have been nice. I also kind of knew something was up when I checked my cc balance and only saw that I was only charged for two so I wasn't totally surprised. At least they threw in a letter telling the customer what was up and stuck to the free shipping otherwise I would have been a little more bothered. Not to mention in their e-mail they said they would throw in the free stick for every box purchased so I figured a three box order would consist of three DDs which sweetened the pot over most vendors plus when I was still living in NY they were one of the shops I frequented often so I am more than happy to give them the business. When there was only one DD in there I did kind of feel like they pulled one over on me but hey at the end of the day it was a free stick and more than I would have received had I ordered from any other vendor but again it was just the principle. I'm guessing they got an overwhelming response to their e-mail that they probably didn't expect and tightened up on the freebie due to it.
The bag thing is kind of annoying as my DDs came the same way and the box was beat to hell and my Mini boxes took some slight damage too but not too bad. A buddy of mine ordered the Minis from Smoke Inn and his were also in a bag. I figured TP was doing it from lack of experience and hoped by the time the Minis shipped they may have switched to boxes with packing but than I was really shocked when my buddy sent me a pic of his box from SI that was shipped the same way. His were delayed due to 3/4 of the label being ripped off by a belt or something at UPS but fortunately the box didn't have much damage. I am hoping that this is not going to be a new trend for online retailers as it really is a sh*tty way to send a box of cigars. Albeit it's probably cheaper for them but still a crappy way to send product. Especially on something that is considered limited as a lot of us tend to keep the boxes on these type of runs for decoration for our offices, man caves etc.

Re: Show your latest NC purchase III!
 

Damn those things are BLACK!!

Re: Show your latest NC purchase III!
 

Crowndone, La Sirena is a great smoke. I'm guessing you will really enjoy those. IMHO, smoke them a little dryer, closer to the 65% range.

Re: Show your latest NC purchase III!
 

Yep. They are pretty good. I picked up one a couple weeks ago. I think it was the robusto. The band took nearly covered the whole cigar :D . There is a familiarness to it, but I couldn't place it.

Re: Show your latest NC purchase III!
 

Thanks for the recommendation( I prefer my smokes at 65-67), Currently they are still resting. They came in a little to moist to smoke. Fired the first one up and only had to take just a couple of pulls to taste it, so a quick purge and clip and I put it away in a seperate humidor to waite. I will use it as a gauge for checking on their humidity levels.
They smell fantastic, one of the best smelling smokes that I have come across. almost as good as a CC. I ordered these shortly after I watched Coops interview. At the site that should not be named, they have these for a good price.
I hope everything is going great around the lounge, I miss hanging for Justified. If you guys planning on doing that with any other series let me know. Give my best to the guys.

Re: Show your latest NC purchase III!
 

Seeing as Jaime blends them and they use a Broadleaf wrapper just like the RE's I would assume thats what you're tasting.

Re: Show your latest NC purchase III!
 

That's because Andre is trying to perfect how to make the least amount of cigars with the most amount of hype. Pete has taught him well (but Pete's cigars are far superior, IMHO.)
