Whew those are tasty looking cigars!!!!!

Been a long time since I've said I wanted to smoke an H Upmann NC but those reserves look tasty.

Thank you, gents! The Reserves are delicious! Had one this morning with a full brew of Chock Full O'Nuts coffee. It began with a rather soft but firm oak and spice that tingles the tongue. That "oakiness" floats throughout the stick. Through the middle third, there is a light citrus flavor that blends with the spices and mixes well, especially with the coffee I was drinking. By the last third, I found a bit of leather mixing with the woody and spice flavors that offered a genuine tasty finish to the cigar.

I have to say, for the price of ~$8 this is very well constructed with a great range of flavors to enjoy.

Up front, if the gentleman who sold this is a member here, T H A N K Y O U!

This is a rather interesting get from eBay. A fellow outside Sacramento, CA posted this package of sticks on eBay with a starting bid of $10 and shipping of $13.60. I was very fortunate to walk away with the package for that $23.60 amount. What's in it is:

1 Acid Blondie
1 CAO MX2
1 Casa Fernandez Miami Reserve
1 Foundry Time Flies Corojo
1 Nub Connecticut
1 Patel Bros. NP
1 Rocky Patel 2008
1 Rocky Patel Wall Street
1 Rocky Patel Vintage 1990
1 Super Ligero El Paraiso
2 Gurkhas
2 Macanudo Cru Royale
3 La Gloria Cubana Serie R
3 Flor Dominicana Double Ligero
5 Camacho Red Corojo

Not bad, if I do say so myself.

At that price, it's worth checking for that hidden gem of a cigar line below radar.

One last assortment from eBay under the "guise" of buying the bands. The claim is the bands are more expensive than the actual cigar. Sure! And I'm a body double for Sylvester Stallone.

Anyway, this worked out to a $30 purchase for the following 20 cigars

1 601 Steel “Rod” Robusto
1 Brocatus
1 Carnage Rubusto
1 Drew Estate La Vieja Habana Cuban Corojo
1 El Reloj (Presidente)
1 Flor del Todo
1 Hecho Amano
1 Inferno 3rd Degree by Oliva
1 Joya de Nicaragua Merciless
1 Tabaco Ramones
1 Victor Sinclair Bohemian Buddha
1 Victor Sinclair Series 55 Connecticut
1 Victor Sinclair Series 55 Red Label Corojo
2 Victor Sinclair Bohemian Red Corojo
2 Vudu
3 Heco Amano Tabamex Lonsdale
