These were released in 2015, long since sold out. I was lucky enough to contact Cigar Federation and they had one last 5er tucked away. Have not smoked one yet, will let you know.

So CigarPlace sends me an e-mail that they are giving me a special discount because I hadn't ordered in a while. So, with the special on Olivas and on the Illusione already, plus my special discount, I thought I'd place a small order.

Did not post pictures when I got this over Christmas, but now that I have an image hosting site again...

Chris Hudson at 4Tour Farms is putting out some great sticks. Anyway, here is what I picked up from him.

Picked up ten BLTC Bishops Blend from CigarFed. Contemplating a box from Atlantic so firing up one of them tonight to get my thoughts. So far great. I do think they get better with some bench time.

Grabbed a few more smokes for my birthday I'm a sucker for anything Saint Patrick's Day related. Anyone ever try this Opus it's a TAA exclusive and a total impulse Buy.

Yeah James that Caldwell box is quite interesting! Haven't sampled Caldwell yet, but plan to check out their stuff in the future...
As for me? Rocky Patel Sungrown Maduro & New World Connecticut boxes!

https://i.postimg.cc/153ks7FV/2-B115...5-A119-DE1.jpg

And that is only the beginning. I'm in the process of stocking up for a weeks vacation in June & then another for the week of the 4th of July. So trying to get as much as I can now so they have time to rest before departing this summer.
Provided I remember to do so, I'll try to post my pre-vacation acquisitions here. So, more to come! :banger

Haha thanks Dave! First one is a camping trip, can't wait for that one!!
And these 5 & 10 packs were from last week...
The first ones are kind of hard to see, but they are Punch Bareknuckles, then Montes, AB Black Market Estelis
And then the LFDs, I believe it's Ligero & Double Ligero, the latter is the Chisel I believe (been wanting to try those, heard good things!) then Hoyo AJF Blacks, Mi Aroma Reservas & last AJF Enclaves! Hoping to sample these in a month, and may get more if any stand out in particular :tu

How are those Bishop Blends? Saw them on Cigarfed the other day and they sounded pretty tasty...
And as for the vacation haha yeah I definitely plan to smoke some good stogies on the trip! Speaking of which, has anyone tried God of Fire? Super pricey but I figure if there's a time to splurge, vacation is a great excuse, haha!

These showed up the other day! @ Weelok, I liked that Corto I had a while back *so* much that I picked up a box!
The other box is Aladino Reserva Corojo, supposed to be a really good complex corojo, and I am yet to find a complex corojo that I haven't liked! :tu

Cortos!!! Nice!!!!!! Never seen the other but they look good.

The Bishops Blend is an awesome cigar.

Excellent score Weelok! I've had a couple San Lotano Reqiuem Habanos and they are a kick ass smoke.
This pic is a recent Cigarbid order plus a little something from CigarFed, lots of Oliva MB3s, AJ Fallen Angels (man those things smell GREAT right out of the bag) and last but most *certainly* not least, CigarFed Leche de Mama Maduros!

I'm actually really excited to try that Viaje, the wrapper is a crazy shade of red I've never seen on a cigar. Looks like one of those wine stained wrappers :dr

Yeah that wrapper looks excellent in the picture! You'll have to let us know how it is if you get the chance, one of these days I plan to throroughly investigate/smoke the Viaje company. :tu

Nice! I picked up a 5er of those a while back, still yet to try them but I've heard good things! Also decided to give some of the other 601s a shot (La Bomba & Snakebite) looking forward to trying all of them!

And yet another for the vacation/s this summer;

https://i.postimg.cc/cCYqGKj1/02-BBC...F7-A9-F1-B.jpg

3 pack of Ashton ESGs (Killer!)
5 Eye of the Shark Sampler (Mega Killer!)
5 God of Fire 2016 Sampler, 3 Don Carlos and 2 are Carlito wrappers
(Cereal Killer!!!)

This was all a surprise I might add, as I was talking with the gf a couple weeks ago about what else I thought might be good to get from Tampa Sweethearts for the vacation. Ultimately, I decided not to order though due to financial restraints. Unbeknownst to me, the girlfriend went ahead and ordered them!

The Le Caremes are great! I'd say somewhere between medium to full body, but definitely not full. In my experience, taste wise? Mostly creamy cocoa/ chocolate notes with a unique fruit undertone, I haven't really been able to place it though. As of recent it's been my favorite maduro 2nd to the RP Sungrown Maduros!

I enjoyed the one I smoked, even though I'm sure the Rh was much higher than my preferred, so I'll let them sit at least a month before I have another. If you want to try one, PM me your address and I'll send you one of mine, Dave. :)

Very nice!! DPG original blue is one of my favorite blends, I'm hoping to grab some of those TAAs in the next couple months myself. What are your thoughts on it btw? I think I read a review somewhere that it's very similar to the original...

I didn't snag a picture, but I popped into my B&M this morning and grabbed a Four Kicks Maduro Sublime, La Careme Robusto, AJ Fernandez H. Upmann, and San Lotano the Bull. The Four Kicks has already gone up in smoke.

Loved it and it was very close to the original I picked up less spice and more bread notes this time around and the burn and construction seemed better then I remembered, I'll be picking up another fiver to age for sure :tu
