Why, That cigar is too BIG, sir! Can you cut it in half for me? - Page 2

For those keeping track, this set contains 2 new Gurkhas that are not on the list of AJ Fernandez factory. Make it 3 if you include Double Happiness.

The idea of smoking two gurkhas at once sounds divine.

tedrodgerscpa · 02-18-2010, 05:42 PM

I want!

Seriously.

That double happiness padilla achilles has me deathly curious. Add me on to the list of the box split.

Blend-schmend... you can light EITHER SIDE... blend-schmend....

Now, to get some XL five finger bags...

There's a "double happiness" on the menu at "Heaven is A Spa" massage parlor in hackensack. Only $49.00 before 5pm.

I think I can make a home made Monty A like that.

When one A is not enough you got two.

Funny thing is that the only Monte A I had I cut in half and had two cigars

Between this "double happiness" and those infamous Fighting . . . uh, Roosters . . . I don't much like the turn this thread is taking.

Pete, Gotta love the name they gave this cigar.

02-18-2010, 05:53 PM

I say punch a hole in the middle and smoke both ends at the same time.

neoflex · 02-18-2010, 06:00 PM

I still can't believe it's back ordered. I'm hoping it's because there was only one box in existence and they accidentally ran it over with the fork-lift in the warehouse.

I dont think they're backordered, I think they havent arrived yet...

Says "Landing Feb 28"...

I agree that if Habanos did this I'd be all over it. I could see one stick for each brand, varnished box.
I'm a little skeptical when it comes from CI. And I like CI.
I'm guessing all of those smokes are being rolled in the same factory?

Believe it or not this was first concepted by Gene Argenese. While I'm not a big argenese guy, the idea is a good one.

You are getting 20 cigars. However, the way it's bundled is as 10 cigars. These reason this is done is because SCHIP taxes you PER cigar. At 40 cents per cigar, this saves you $4.00 per box.

That is not only good to know, but also very unsurprising.
