Re: Show your latest NC purchase IV
Nice. I don't go over to CBid much, but seems to me you pick those up over there pretty regularly. Of course, if I go and bid on them, then one of us might be disappointed.
Nice snag. Peace of the Lord be with you.

You can’t beat CBID pickups like that

Just bid on a few a couple days ago. I haven't had a bad Caldwell yet.

Re: Show your latest NC purchase IV
I picked them up in a private sale. Larry knows I love Viaje so we set up a deal.
These are 2018 boxes so a few years under their belts. Viaje has changed quite a bit over time. The first Satoris focused on being smooth yet rich in flavor. As with many of his brands, the last 3 -4 years many of them ramped up in strength but also a little rougher smoke. Two brands in particular are the Summerfest and this one, the Satori. I like it but it is different. Brands that tended to go the other way are the Zombies IMHO which are quiet a bit less flavorful and potent then the original releases. For a few years, all I would smoke were the Blue label leaded Exclusivios as I thought those were the only ones consistently good. I’m more tolerant now of lines changing and just smoke them if I like them so adventuring with Viaje brands again.

Re: Show your latest NC purchase IV
Seeing good things in here lately from the Caldwells to the Viaje and more!! One of these days I hope to grab some boxes of Viaje and age them in the long term. Specifically the Natural Leaded, I think that would be a great smoke in the long term.

A victim of cigar bid...
I really want to light a V up, but I am pretty good at giving them at least 2 weeks after shipping.

Dave, while heavily encouraged as I really like Caldwell, please don't get too froggy.

Re: Show your latest NC purchase IV
Put in a lowball bid for 10 fivers at the Devil Site and ended up winning five. If they wanna give 'em away cheap, I'll smoke 'em!
