Let me think about it. Tempted!!


Can always negotiate but the max I’ll go is 8 Cubans (...of your choice...) for one 5 Vegas or VS.

The most I’ll go on the Opus is 3 for 1. The LE Tats - we can discuss later.

They have some age on them. I think they have been tucked away for awhile now. Except the Macanudo Orange...it is straight off the truck.

WTF you talkin’ about? I’m asking David if he’ll do a TRADE. Completely separate from the BP. READ you dumbazz!

And fwiw, I’ve done trades with you and it’s always so LOPSIDED! I send you One-Ton Chips and all I get back is some Oregon wine, coffee, candy, and other PNW junk. Oh, okay, there was that one time that you sent a bottle of Elmer T. Lee but you know, it’s just decent bourbon.

Hey man, a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do. I mean, yah, maybe I'm overpaying a little bit but you almost never see those 5 Vegas and VC in box passes or in the Trades section!

Shame on you

Iffin' I had the Ban Hammer powers like Z, there'd be INSTANT bans for even the slightest mention of she-who's-name-shall-not-be-spoken (...or written...)!

It has arrived in its large glorious tobacco-ness.

A certain Sneaky88 included a bag for me including:
Fuente Hemingway Signature (❤️)
Norteno Churchill? Been awhile
Aging Room Nicaraguan (cigar of the year)
Tatuaje 51st (oh Lordy)
Heisenberg robusto (no)

The pre filled stickers are a thoughtful touch. The box was well packed. I will post up proposed takes and puts in the morning, I’m pretty beat, and I made Sichuan stir fry with Sichuan peppercorns and that was a ride!

The box made it safely to AK the day after the first snow fall. Receiving the box today helped me feel better about the white stuff covering everything. ZRX1200 added a little extra for me continuing what Stinger88 started. It included:

Gurkha - Micro Batch Liga TPB-1 nh
Casa Magna - nh
Arturo Fuente - Anejo - love
Liga Privada - No.9 - love
Franklin Pichardo custom roll - nh

Thank you Jamie, very generous and I look forward to ashing them.

Now for my take and replacement if approved:

Takes:
Ava Maria - Reconquista
Padilla - small batch
Padron 1964 Maduro

Replacements:
Stolen Thorne Crook of the Crown
Stolen Thorne Call to Arms
Plasencia - Alma Fuerte
Arturo Feunte Opus X Lost City

Ok let me know if those work for replacements so I can get this boxed up and passed along. Thank you SirKnight for the putting this together!

Hehe....I’m sure that’ll work out for ya.

Dave looks good to me! Hope you enjoy the LP those box pressed Lounge Exclusives are a bit lighter IMO but it does have some age on it too. Had one a few weeks ago it smoked great.
