Show your latest NC purchase IV - Page 23

It has been a while since a decent cigar purchase happened with me, but with the youngest graduating and also enjoying cigars, I decided that when I got some disposable income, I'd get something unique - something excellent - hopefully, something nostalgic... Well, that's what I did. I found a way to order some Moore and Bode Cigars. I have not had any in a while, but they were astounding smokes. These are not powerhouses, those looking to knock their socks off might be disappointed, but they used to exhibit some complexity that was absolutely amazing.

Their packaging is also unique, a bit elegant compared to a cedar box, butcher paper on the outside, tin foil on the inside, and then red flannel tied wraps.

The original blend (Miami) was fairly mild with hints of butter, but the primary notes were floral and earthy. The Flamboyan blend was a bit bolder, but I would still classify as a mild-medium, nuts and coffee predominate.

Anyway, I got a 20-pack of Flamboyan Salvadores (5X50), 1 each of the Brass (5.5<70) and Full Brass (7.5<82) in both the Miami blend and the Flamboyan blend.

This 2nd picture is a shot of the Brass & Full Brass straight on looking at the feet. I have decent sized hands, so those puppies have some serious girth at the foot.

I have not smoked any yet, they are going to sit and rest a bit. But, I am excited to try these out again.

Peace of the Lord be with you.

I'm glad that you are going to be able to enjoy those with your son.

Could not help myself. Latest pick-up from the "evil site" Cigar Bid. A box of My Father Le Bijou Grand Robustos.

I haven't had the fun in being able to buy many cigars over the last few years because of money issues. We finally got back on our feet and am now going to be able to purchase more. I couldn't resist buying a bundle of El Mejor Espresso from CI a couple days ago. Shilala turned me onto these way back in the Club Stogie days and it's been a few years since I had one. Looking forward to smoking one.

Can't show them yet cause I just ordered them last night, but I got what I feel like is an awesome deal at Holt's for 20 mouth watering Oliva Master Blend III. The deal is still up for anyone needing some.

Greg, is a stellar deal for a terrific cigar. Waiting for something suitable on Holt's 1-day flash sales to get free shipping for the whole deal.
MBIII pricing good thru Sept 7, so no rush. It's not like I am running out of smokes.
