so i have been barely posting for about a week now. I had a final on last thurs and then because i took so many days off work to study i had about 10 piles of work to catch up on. I did however get the time to order two boxes of smokes from a friend who can get smokes i can't get :wink:. I also got 10 opus x in the fuente fuente size. So that put my cigar tab at about $450 for the week. I am trying to think up a good contest, or consolodation trade for anyone interested. I have piles of great sticks, but looking to get something more like boxes. Maybe i could put together a "newbie" sampler. If your interested leave a note here so i can plan it out. You buy me a box i send you sticks worth the same amount or more.

here are pics of partying for smoka:

i will post some pics every week of ladies and partying. That way smoka gets his fill. :D

you can also check out limo night march 2005. That was my going away party after a week visit to all my friends back home. 2 Stretch hummer limos :shock:
 
Hmm, sounds interesting. What kind of sticks are you looking at , or, better yet, what kind do you like?
 
I smoke cigars more to the medium or full body. For example things you might recieve from me could be anywhere from a Cusano C10 to an Arturo Fuente 8-5-8 to something full body like an Ashton VSG. I would be interested in boxes of something like the danli reserve, or the cusano C10. I will keep it somewhere reasonable. Definatly under $100. If you are an all mild smoker i probably can't help you as much as others might be able to. I won't send someone a bunch of doggy rockets.

I have decided to do it for sure, so someone tell me what you want to spend and what cigars you like so far. First one gets the trade. You must be willing to spend $65 or more. After you forward the confirmation email from cigar.com i will send your package.

I got a great extra stick to send that lots of people may never get to try. It is legal in the united states, but costs around $21 a stick.
 
I'm willing to spend $100 or so, and I really like the AF 858 maduros. Another favorite of mine is the Cuesta Rey Centenario No. 60 Maduro. I'm open to others too, and I have yet to try anything from Cusano other than the Corojo.
 
sounds good ill post a box for you to get and pm you my address and you pm me yours. I will also post a list of sticks here before you buy the box for me so you know your getting a decent value.

i may be able to do this twice now that i look at my coolerdor. we will see after the first one.
 
1 - Rocky patel the edge maduro
1 - Trinidad "are you man enough?"
1 - nicaro robusto
1 - punch royal coronation
1 - sancho panza extra fuerte
1 - honduran primero double corona
1 - Pre-embargo cuban from 1958
1 - cusano C18
1 - cusano vintage
1 - Torano Exodus Silver
1 - Padron 3000
1 - Padron fumas
1 - Diploma
1 - fuente Chatau fuente
1 - Joya De Nicaragua Celebracion
1 - Partagas #1
1 - Sol Cubano Maduro
1 - Opus X Fuente Fuente

it was fairly hard to guess what you would like so i put in a decent array of things. There are some pretty big differences in sticks on that list.
Let me know what you think....
 
cool...sounds good...the only one on that list that I've tried is the Diploma. I'll PM you my address right after I post this and you can PM me yours. I'll order that box for you probably tomorrow.


I look forward to trying those sticks you listed.

I know you said you weren't huge on the padron lines but what you described in your taste sounds like you would like padron. Let this 26 sit and be super watchfull of your humidity. It won't dissapoint you.

Sending it today via ups, ill post the tracking number tonight.
 
its been an hour and half since i got to work and i have been staring at these sticks on my desk.
best word to describe it:
torture....

especially when i get a glimpse of the 1926, then i lean back in the chair and drift to fantasy land, me in front of the flat screen at the club watching tv and smoking a 26
 
recieved the box of edges today, can't wait to see your likes and dislikes from the sticks i sent you. Should be there on monday!
 
got the cigars today! There are two that are unbanded, and I'm assuming they're the Rocky patel the edge natural and the Pre-embargo cuban, but which is which? One is wrapped in cello and one is unwrapped.
 
the one in the cello is the cuban

hope you enjoy those sticks :D
 
I've had three of the sticks you sent me so far...the Cusano 18, the La Aroma de Cuba, and the 3 x3 tubo by davidoff. The Cusano seemed to be dried out and it was rather harsh, but I've heard nothing but good things about these so I'll give them another chance, the La Aroma de Cuba was a little sweeter than I like, but I enjoyed it anyway..most of it anyway...I had the misfortune of dropping it out of my car window when I went to flick the ash from it. :( It was mostly finished anyway, so I wasn't too bummed. The 3x3 was my favorite of the three I tried so far. The flavor was wonderful...I'd like to get some more of these, but I have not seen them in my shop, so I'll have to look around for them.
