MMmmm... Pepin.. I like everything that guy makes. I just finished reading the article on him in the Dec issue of CA while smoking a Pepin JJ Maduro. Yet another fine cigar by him.
Today I picked up another Pepin Robusto Sampler:
2 Pepin Blue Label
2 Pepin JJ Maduro
2 Pepin Cuban Classic
2 San Cristobal
as well as 2 Oliva Master Blends 2, the last 2 robustos the local B&M had. They still have almost a full box of the Churchills but I'm not a fan of that size. I like the 2 more than the original, they fuller bodied and pack more flavor as well, but they're a lot harder to find because production was less than 1/2 of what they made for the original series, only 120,000 vs 375,000 of the original, which explains why the original are still available online and the MB2 has virtually disappeared.
The local B&M also had several boxes of the Pinar 3000 legal cubans, but with both my daughters birthdays this month to kick off the holiday season, I had to pass. Maybe I'll get lucky and they'll still have some after the holidays have passed.

A B&M around here finally got Tatuajes! I picked up:
1 Gran Cojonu
1 Cojonu 2006
Additionally, I picked up the last 2 La Flor Dominicana Double Ligero Chisels.
The Tinderbox here in Charleston used to have not the greatest selection, but things are definitely picking up.

geeeezz!! why dont you just go with a cabinet?
how many 300+ count humis you got now? and in how many months ?
... im still jealous.
actually Im thinking maybe in the spring, I could work out a deal with another board member or 3 (ill have 3 desktops when the new one comes in, a 50, a 100, and a 300), maybe sell off all my desktops, and put it toward a cabinet....then do that mod Travis did so I can cool it...I have a "cabinet" now but its my fridgeador...and when summer rolls around, Im gonna need a way to keep my smokes cool in this old farmhouse....so....we'll see...
Purchased 2X: DPG black label, Tatuaje, Oliva Ser V. Yesterday i also ordered a new ashtay, Xikar cutter and Xikar lighter.

The hills and the hollers
I tried the CAO America Monument and then the wife called and gave me an extra hour before i had to come home, so i had a Cusano 18 Paired Maduro robusto to pass the time.
