Exclamation Re: Show your latest NC purchase IV



Part of my most recent shipment, I was lucky and managed to snag a box of Toro Le Bijous for cheap, 601 snakebites - love those, last box I had had cracking problems on the caps, but flavorful enough to risk and nothing some finesse and a razor blade can't handle next a box of L'Atlier Surrogates Crystal Ballers/Toros - heard lots of good things about this brand, excited to try!
And last, possibly my current NC favorite, the 601 La Bombas, this box is corona I believe but I have an additional 4 boxes of Toros on the way...that's just how damned good those things are...speaking of which;
@ Weelok, if you see this, have you had the La Bomba before? I know you like a strong flavorful smoke and these are probably the strongest AND most flavorful stogies I've ever had! If not let me know, I'd like to send out a couple for you to test drive (no need to reciprocate!)

Thanks James!! And yeah Chayse they are a killer smoke if you enjoy a *really* strong cigar. I have a couple busy weeks coming up but after the week of the 4th I could try to get one out to you if you want to shoot me your address.

Damn!!!!!! Nice pick ups!! I have had only one Bomba and it was an a newly released sample given to people at IPCPR. It was good and was also five years ago hah.

I like CAO cigars and this one is good as well as the new CAO Extreme. I think the only CAO cigar I don’t like is the Gold.

Oh good so you have tried one before. I'm not sure if they've gotten better recently but the last box I had was remarkable. Still though, I'll see about getting one out to you sometime this summer, I think they definitely deserve a 2nd look!

I really regret having slept on 601 initially, haven't had a bad blend from them yet, from the Snakebite to the Maduro to La Bomba. Recently ordered a 5er of the Green/Oscuro so am looking forward to seeing if it lives up to its siblings!

Nice!!!! Never had the Morphine or the SouthernDraw. Lanceros aren’t my preferred size but the cigars look fabulous.
