Holy cr@p! That champagne bottle is huge.

It would be pretty funny to sit down at a poker table with that thing, look around, and say "yeah, I plan to be here for a while." :D

Collect or smoke, those things are still pretty wild.

a Nestor Miranda Special Selection (Rosado), My Father Lancero, Oliva V's, and Cubaos. I wanted to snag some opus but petite lancero's were all they had. ;)

Re: Show your latest NC purchase!
 
I finally foudn some more petite lanceros locally, butt hey wanted $34 EACH! I asked why they were so expensive and they said cuz they can't get them direct. I wasn't about to spend $30 on a $15 cigar.

Hey Guys, have any of you ever had the H Upmann Edicion Limitada Cigars, they come 21 to a box, around 85.00 a box. Any feedback on that would be appreciated.

Also, I have opportunity to buy a box of Ashton Monarch Tubos for 160.00, has anybody had one and are they worth the money? Flavorful??

Thanks!

I quite enjoy that cigar. I've had 2 of the Edition Limitada; the H. Upman and the Trinidad (both the same blend just different vitolas).

I would try a single first to make sure you do though, some love it some don't.

Their pricing on the 1964's does seem a little higher than average but their usual pricing for the 45th based on recent newsletter mailings is $21/ea which is usually at or slightly cheaper than most sites I've seen. It's certainly a hellva lot cheaper than the $55 my local B&M is charging ;) Rob and Patrick are good guys and often have call in specials via their newsletter so your best bet is to give them a call directly for pricing (and/or sign up for the newsletter).

You may also be able to find the cheaper at other vendors that I don't have easy access to as many US based vendors won't ship to Canada. As a result there are a lot vendors that most inmates consider "standard" that I don't even bother to look at since I can't really buy from them anyways.

I will admit that my experience with them is fairly limited, but have thoroughly enjoyed the ones I've tried.
