Goodfella's in Mahtomedi is having an Ashton tasting event on May 8th from 6-8 pm. Each person will receive two Ashton cigars and will be a part of the tasting event. If you are interested in attending let me know and I will tell Fritz to hold a spot for you. Tickets are $10. Hope to see some of you there.

Just expanding on the last post....The Ashton rep will be setting up stations of food. Nuts, fruit, chocolate etc. You will walk around to each tasting table, eat one of the items on the table then puff. The rep will then ask what flavors are prominent in the cigar after you eat each item. Sounds pretty cool.

Huh...must have got caught in my spam filter. I am VERY excited about the Drew Estate / Liga Privada event on June 13th with Fabien.

Not sure if thats worth a 50 mile drive or not...

LMAO. Just because its a MN thread anyone listen to the KQ morning show today?

Today they were talking about the DUI sting this weekend and how the state had arrested more people Friday night during the crackdown than any other single night in state history and Philly Dog says "I personally want to thank the state for the creation of those whiskey plates as its easy to know which females are the best to follow home at 2am." LMAO!

I grew out of KQRS's demographic a couple decades ago. Jock-talk Dick-joke radio isn't appealing to me.

Apparently I missed this. It sounds very cool. Are there still spots available? I am pretty sure that a friend and I would go. If you would be so kind would you shoot me a PM or eMail me at jameswinters343@gmail.com?

Thank you Brother.

I wanted to go but its about a 90 mile round trip from Woodbury and was wrapped up in moving to Brooklyn Park. Saving my pennies for the Liga Privda / Drew Estate Event in June. That I am hoping is going to be killer. Really badly want to get my hands on some Ratzillas or Velvet Rats.

Yup I just noticed this. Still not "all there" from the last weeks events lol.

Did you go? How was it?

mahtofire14 · 06-10-2013, 05:05 PM

Not exactly an event but Goodfellas in Mahtomedi has a box of Oliva MB3's that he has open and selling the singles for 50% off which puts them at $6.75 a stick. I already snagged a fiver of them. If I remember right they are the robusto size. Also I'm not sure if it's the only box but it was still pretty full on Saturday so if there are any MB3 fans around I'd give him a call and see if they are still there!

I've been wishing I could go to these for a month now. I work evening/nights so I can't ever make these events because they are always during the week. Sucks.

Pete, no way you can get Thursday off as its a very rare not only Liga event at the only "authorized" LP B&M in the state (Smokedale by the U of MN and Oakdale plus Hudson has them very cheap and I can get you a 15% discount off $100 or more purchase in Hudson but have them as well but "unauthorized") but Faiben from DE will be there. Rad guy. We are going up at 1400 to camp out a spot for the 1700 start time lol.

Other stuff coming up this summer but I don't want to overstep my bounds by letting word out before the are officially announced. Several B&Ms gave nice summer events coming up.
