Cohiba 1966 Edicion Limitada 2011
 

I just ordered two of these babies online (Cuban Cohiba 1966 Edicion Limitada 2011). One for me and one for my boss as a Christmas gift, he's the one that got me started on cigars. Good way to score some brownie points I suppose.

Anyway, they were $81 a piece. I expect to receive them around Nov 27. Can't wait!

In addition to those, I ordered some other premiums, namely Bolivar Belicoso Fino, RyJ Churchill and RyJ Belicoso (all cuban).

Also, received my sampler shipment yesterday of 6 different cuban Robustos. They are: Hoyo de Moterrey, RyJ, H. Upmann, Bolivar, Cohiba, Partagas (all robustos). Since I already have a full box of the cohiba robustos, really I'm trying 5 new kinds with this shipment. They arrived beautifully fresh from Switzerland.

Yikes $81 each! I'd have to turn those two into a box of RASS - 13 for me, 12 for him. For the coin, I hope they're dynamite!

I figured such, I just wasn't sure how it all works, don't want people to think I'm illegally importing or anything.

How do I post a picture on here? Sorry, I'm fairly new here. Seems I have to have the picture uploaded to the web first. Is there a simple way to post a picture here of my recent shipment?

Use a host site like photobucket, then copy the "img" address into a post.

These are my babies. I'm going to do to them the same that US customs would. Incinerate them. Only I'll do it one by one, very slowly.

Love thr RyJ shortchurchill, that what I'm smoking in my avatar!

Re: Cohiba 1966 Edicion Limitada 2011
 

About 50% of that price is tobacco tax in Canada, and it would apply to any cigar from any location :( At least thats what Ive seen in my multiple excursions up North. I always end up bringing my own and hope the border patrol doesnt find them.

Re: Cohiba 1966 Edicion Limitada 2011
 

Nah, this is the price that I pay from switzerland, so they're subject to Canadian tax when they get shipped through the mail.

There's probably a 20% chance or so that I'll get dinged Canadian tax when they get shipped.

A friend's friend is going to Cuba next month and will pick me up a box of whatever I want. Right now, my plan is to get her to get me another box of Cohiba Robustos, works out to about $260. I know those are pricier than most other cuban brands, but I know I love dem Cohibas.

I'm going to work through my sampler pack (above) first though and see if any of those tickle my fancy to warrant a full box purchase though. I just don't think I'm going to be able to try each of them in time, may only get through one or two. what to do?!?!

Taste the Bolivar first.
