You got yourself a fine girl Bill, congrats, those look awesome. I had my first Padron last weekend. I am definately going to be getting into some of the more expensive Padron's very soon! It was so good, just a really tasty treat. I will bet you will really enjoy those, and BTW Happy Birthday friend.
:D
Oh and those other sticks aren't garbage either!:r

Re: Show your latest NC purchase!
 

These came in yesterday from a buy from BryanB...thanks buddy for the great deal and great smokes. I fired one up and I am very impressed with them. What a great cigar. Very flavorful and I really enjoyed it out on the patio hanging with my dog.

I am going to have to go after some more RyJ stuff and test the waters, I am sure they make some others that are good too!! It's amazing, just all the different brands and all the different "models" that are available. It's sensory overload, but a great freedom to have to complain about!!:D

Trust me, he will. He gets a box of Padron Annies damn near weekly. LOL (jealous)

Re: Show your latest NC purchase!
 

Nice grabs!! :tu

Re: Show your latest NC purchase!
 

Very nice pickups everyone!! Its got me itching for another box or two.

Re: Show your latest NC purchase!
 

Noice score Chris!!! Hey, you coming to EPIC III this year?

Re: Show your latest NC purchase!
 

:tpd:
Nicely Done Guys!

Re: Show your latest NC purchase!
 

It is pretty sad when your everyday smoke is a PAM :D

People can say what they will about Padron advertising in CA to get the Top Cigar spots but they are just really great cigars. I wish I was into these 10 years ago.

Re: Show your latest NC purchase!
 

It doesn't look like it. Having enough money to travel is hurting me. If I stopped buying cigars and car parts I'd probably be okay. Lol. I'll make it sometime! Hopefully you guys throw down next year too.

Re: Show your latest NC purchase!
 

If you can afford em, why wouldn't PAM's be your everyday smoke? Some of my friends think I'm a snob because my goto smokes are Tat Reserva's. Smoke em if you got em...right? :tu

Re: Show your latest NC purchase!
 

I've had good luck with the higher end Padrons, not so much with the lower end ones. Just my :2

Re: Show your latest NC purchase!
 

We don't think your a snob Walt, we know :r

Re: Show your latest NC purchase!
 

This "out of this earth" smelling 5er of Viaje Skull 'n Bones Daisy Cutters just arrived...with an "escort" no less. Excel...many thanks brother!! :dr :dr :dr

Nice pick up on the S&B you are going to love those and be burning your fingers!

Re: Show your latest NC purchase!
 

Nice Mac, I have to go get paper towels to wipe the drool off the keyboard now. Thanks a lot!
:dr

One of these days I am going to have to try those, seems everyone is very happy with them.
Let us know what you think of them.

Re: Show your latest NC purchase!
 

Nice pickup mac :)

Re: Show your latest NC purchase!
 

Nice grabs Mac!! You never cease to amaze me!

Re: Show your latest NC purchase!
 

Came in today from Leaf and Ale, they had a 20% off Nubs. Had to pick these up.

He also threw in a 4pk Cain F sampler that included the CainF Nub, (already smoked it!!) along with an Oliva cap, a Cain F goodie bag, and a little bottle opener.

Re: Show your latest NC purchase!
 

Those Nubs look tasty. How was the Cain Nub?

Re: Show your latest NC purchase!
 

I really enjoy Nubs, I have Cameroons, Habano's, and Connecticuts by the box, needed to get some Maddies so this worked out nicely.

I enjoyed the Cain Nub . Great flavor right off the bat, I will smoke the other CainF as a comparison. First Cain's that I have had. That straight ligero is something else!! Even burn, cool smoke, got down to about 1 inch before putting it down, started getting really leathery!! I think it is worth it to pick one up to try Kevin.

I am looking forward to the Cain habano.

Re: Show your latest NC purchase!
 

MMMMM I hope I luck into one of them at some point! They look great. :dr

Re: Show your latest NC purchase!
 

I picked up a Nub Maduro, CAO Italia, and 2 Bricks....
along with a new Humi! Humi only cost $70!

I like 'em, so thats what counts! :r

Re: Show your latest NC purchase!
 

Nice pick ups gents. :tu

McKenzie, what are those with the green band?

Re: Show your latest NC purchase!
 

Puros Indios Viejo. They are a Rolando Reyes blend and are loved my many and disliked by others. I think they are fantastic, and while I have had a few that were a bit "dull", in general they have been fantastic!

Re: Show your latest NC purchase!
 

Nice pick ups! I agree. Some love'em some hate'em. I like them in the Media Corona or Corona size for a middle of the day smoke. They surprise me every time I smoke 1. Also great for your buddies that don't smoke too often.

Re: Show your latest NC purchase!
 

I got a few in the humi....resting them for some reason....Think I'm gonna re-think it this weekend!....Nice Mac!

Re: Show your latest NC purchase!
 

Nice Dan....how'd you like the Cain F nub??

Re: Show your latest NC purchase!
 

Tried a Fiver of these from the monster and had to get a box.
These are another great Famous exclusive AB cigar, that you should try!
""full-bodied blend of Nicaraguan Esteli & Jalapa plus Colombian longfillers, Honduran binder and dark, mouthwatering Brazilian Mata Fina wrappers".

Re: Show your latest NC purchase!
 

Sweeeet haul Travis!! :tu Love to hear how they compare to my favorite AB stick...Tempus.

Re: Show your latest NC purchase!
 

I have been eyeballing these up too

Re: Show your latest NC purchase!
 

AB makes some tasty sticks.....I see a fiver in my future.....

Re: Show your latest NC purchase!
 

Nice...are they reasonably priced sticks?

Man...Alec Bradley has some intense bands on his smokes. They look like they should run on batteries.

Re: Show your latest NC purchase!
 

I was suprised by it, it has ruined me for the other nubs, might as well throw my three boxes in the trash, pure garbage now!!! :r

Actually Keith, that was my first Cain, I have those other that I am going to try and compare against the Nub Cain. The nub had flavor right out of the gate and it stayed lit, no burn issues and it was a nice smoke all the way to about an inch, then my lips caught on fire, and it was getting pretty leathery and peppery.

If you are able to find one to try, go for it, you won't be disappointed.
Call Mike at Leaf and Ale, he might have some left over from the Nub event.

Re: Show your latest NC purchase!
 

Very nice pickup Travis, I really enjoy AB's. His boxes are hypnotic to me!

Re: Show your latest NC purchase!
 

Haha, if you cant stand your old NUBs, send em to me!! :r

I've had one Cain maduro before (not the nub) and it was so-so. I'll have to find the Cain Nub as I do enjoy the NUB line. Maybe I'll be like you and be hooked!

Re: Show your latest NC purchase!
 

LOL MJ!!
I am hooked bad bro. I really love the Nubs. Over at CigarPlace.biz you can get 20% off nubs all the time and they have decent pricing to begin with. Go check it out. They have 20 percent off all oliva stuff, checkout their specials and they have a bunch of discount codes in there. Just put nub in the promo code box in the shopping cart.
You can get those boxes of nubs down quite a bit on the pricing. :tu

Re: Show your latest NC purchase!
 

Thanks for the heads up! I got a box of Illusione 88s for an awesome price at cigarplace.biz!

Re: Show your latest NC purchase!
 

Huge fan of the Nubs too...I'm sad that they get so much flak here but I can understand how the marketing can be a turn off. But I'm not going to force my opinion on somebody and tell them that they have to enjoy a specific cigar :p Everybody has their own tastes.

I do have a box of the Maduro 464's en route right now from a recent CigarMonster deal, should be here Monday. Expect pictures then :D I'm looking forward to trying a Cain F Nub, since I like the Cain line as well. But right now my fav Nubs are the Maduro and Habano.

Re: Show your latest NC purchase!
 

So, Holt's just sent me an email for JdN Antanos Beli's, 89 bones a box with free shipping on the entire order. Why do they do this to me. I haven't had any of those yet but have heard they are great cigars. The sale is only over the weekend, the price looks really good!!

Re: Show your latest NC purchase!
 

Yup, I agree, marketing aside, I really like the taste of them. But some people may not like them, that's cool. Everyone has stuff they like and stuff they don't. That's what makes us humans being!! That's all that matters, it's my tower, my hour of smoking, etc. It's all about to each his own on what makes us happy. Nubs make me happy!!
Like these JdN's that just went on weekend blitz at Holt's, I wonder if those will make me happy. The price has me smiling.

Re: Show your latest NC purchase!
 

NOTE: This will be the same guy wondering why I don't give him cigars to smoke anymore. :D

Re: Show your latest NC purchase!
 

Give the Overture a try too. another very nice Famous Exclusive.

Re: Show your latest NC purchase!
 

A little sampler I picked up today. Happy Father's Day to me!!

Re: Show your latest NC purchase!
 

I bought 2 five packs of these, sent a few out in trades and bombs. Liked them enough to go back for a box.

Re: Show your latest NC purchase!
 

Nice grabs Kevin!!! :dr :dr You too Larry. :tu

Re: Show your latest NC purchase!
 

All full bodied smokes Mac! Can't wait to try those Intenso's and Turbos. Got a box of the Intenso Torp's coming next week. You and I seem to have the same taste in cigars Mac. A friend of mine keeps telling me I got the cigarbug bad. He's right.

Re: Show your latest NC purchase!
 

The 681's are real nice, aren't they?

:tu

Re: Show your latest NC purchase!
 

Nice score!

4 out of 5 I've tried, 3 out of the 4 I've tried I'd recommend. The Cask Strengths aren't bad but they are medium at best, nowhere near full. MOWR, Intensos and Perdomo Limited Reserves are all solid smokes IMO.

Re: Show your latest NC purchase!
 

For the money, it is a great stick. I picked up 30 of them for $90.
