Yes, this past Sunday I smoked my first Tat black label and fell in love, now I can not find any of the orig. release which came in the jars. Guess I will have to wait for the new Trops. to come out. I feel your pain brother!

Aimless wandering......Pointless perusal......A plenipotentiary of peripatetic profligacy........Guess I'll go have a smoke and see if there is a reason for living.....Can't wait to see what Tanith has to say .....

The Nomad's post re Oliva's not-for-sale brought back to mind some CAO fresh houseblends I once snagged at a herf. CAO was there offering extras with box sales, but were handing out these puppies as samples left and right. They were unpressed, unbanded, sizable sticks (Churchill mebbe?), in dark wrappers, and a blend they only made for themselves, for in-house consumption. These were probably the best CAOs I ever had, and I managed to scarf a few others from brothers who weren't interested, thank you very much. I wouldn't mind gettin' my paws on a wheel or three of these - especially at the same price.

Thanks to all of you whom have posted, I posted my original topic because I occasionally have cigars that I know I cant get there are some I've been gifted, older than I am, makers out of business, etc, i took just a moment to see what others have had and some of the stories have just the stuff I wondered about. This hobby/life of cigars changes so often and things come and go. The friends I have met and just spoken with on here make memories far deeper than a cigar can ever be held to. I just wondered how some of you got to where you are with things you can never have again..... Thanks again

There was an old Cohiba with a label that looked like the Cuban variety with the yellow, white, and black but it just said Dominican or Dominican Republic along the bottom. These things were fantastic!
