When Kevin and I ordered them, Kev too the initiative and called them to get the background on them, they told Kevin that they had a falling out with DPG and were no longer using them and that these were from somewhere in the DR...it was the closest they could get to the original blend.

After I got my box (as I posted) I smoked one and an original DPG back to back and there is no comparison.

After I smoked it Kevin informed me that he found out these were VS sticks.

Hope that clears things up....want one??

Well I am glad I passed on those then. I have a few left of the DPG's and they are pretty good for a short novelty smoke.

If I ordered a box expecting DPG made Firecrackers and got VS Firecrackers, they would be sent back in a heartbeat. The worst DPG cigar is a way better than the very best VS cigar. Nearly $4 each for a 3x50 VS cigar!? That is a prison poke! EEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

A nice sampler I bought from Carmack. I just can't say no to a good deal.

With all the talk about the El Centurion, I had to grab a 5er of the toros to see what all the buzz was about.

That's one helluva sampler! More like a whole desktop humidor! Nice pick ups!

MrClean · 06-26-2013, 12:38 PM

Traded Cory (cjhalbrooks) a Wolfie card for some sticks. He sent a damn fine selection!

Some fine grabs today!

After years of hemming and hawing I finally bought myself a tower this past Friday as maintaining a handful of humidors/end table cabinet and big totes full of cigars started getting old. Not to mention getting to what I actually wanted to smoke was becoming too time consuming. I got a pretty good deal so I jumped on it. No pics until it's loaded as I know how this place works with empty humidor pics.

Ironically the wife has been on me for a couple years now to buy one as she was tired of seeing humidors all over the house. I finally pulled the trigger. She's already holding steady and will get loaded over the weekend. I figure a few more days of seasoning won't hurt.

big_jaygee · 06-26-2013, 11:25 PM

Your no fun John

Congrats brother
