Re: Warped Don Reynaldo Regalos
Smoking another one of these.
CC smokers: Warped has *almost* cracked the code with these.
Buy a box.
Trust me. At today's prices, these cigars come REALLY close.

Still not worth $30/stick. :r...

Re: LONSDALE love!
I've been smoking on a '17 box and they've been fantastic. So good, in fact, that I decided to pay an exorbitant sum for 2 more boxes. Got lucky with the box dates. 2019.
