Shack Herf 2010 Stogies

HK3- · 08-24-2010, 11:59 AM

Never been fortunate enough to attend any of the Shack Herfs yet and today I was wondering what everyone smoked while they were there.

What did you smoke while at Shack that wasn't your everyday stick?

(sorry if this thread already exists, I didn't see one)

Got to try:

Dunhill Estupendo and 1960's Dunhill Don Alfredo...those were the craziest..although there were many many others but I was always in the wrong place at the wrong time.

the best for me was not the 1994 but the 85 Hu Monarca..wow...just wow..oh did I say wow...

Craziest thing I saw was a 1905 Partaga with a green and silver band...I think that got torched as well.

THIS is the best way to say it. You can live vicariously through other people's descriptions
of great cigars, but it just makes you mad and you stop reading after a few posts. Hal always
says he will go but always cancels, just like I did for three years straight. But even I finally
broke down and went, lol. But I think I will step aside and make rooom for others next year.
Some people will go every year regardless, but I think folks like me need to make room for
others to go and get the full experience and still have the herf be a manageable entity.

Dude... you better go next year. 1 extra body won't make a difference either way.

SMOKED

These are sticks I either brought myself and smoked, or were handed to me as a gift and smoked at Shack.

02 LGC MdO #4
08 CoRo
01 CoLa
09 Monte Edmundo
07 HdM Coronation
08 Sig II
00 HU Coronas Major
80s Davidoff Mouton
Punch Ninfa that was handed to me by DBall
70s Partagas 8-9-8
00 Festival Marevas
LGC Deliciosos RE Cuba
LGC Gloriosos RE UK
08 ERDM Grandes de Espana
98 Boli PC
07 Sig I
00 Party Lons
99 Boli Lons

I may have missed a few in the list above, but those are the bands I have.

However, I also got to TRY a number of absolutely amazing sticks via a few of the PPPs that went on. This list is definitely incomplete, but here are the ones I remember clearly:

93 RASS
95 CoRo
90-something CoLa
Partagas 155th Anniversary (TWICE!)
Cohiba 30th Anniversary
Dunhill Mojito
Dunhill Estupendo
85 HU Monarca
Monte #4 Dunhill Seleccion (or something like that)
Cohiba Sublimes
5th Avenue 10th Anniversary
VR 5 Anniversario
Dutch Masters Clear Havana
White Owl Clear Havana
Don Alfredo

I know there were others ... I need to bring a little notepad next time.

Oh, and I passed on trying a Cubatobacco cigar reserved for diplomats and visiting dignitaries circa 1960 because my palette was absolutely fried at that point. It's not that I didn't want to try it, but I thought it was poor form for me to accept it just for the sake of saying I tried one when I KNEW there would be zero flavors coming through due to all the other sticks I had already had.

It was a good time!
