I think I grabbed a stash of file folder labels, but any old sticker will do on cello. For naked smokes there are some blank cigar label options out there, or you can get crafty like Benja.

Laziness was a big roadblock for me, but when I smoked a gifted cigar and didn't know who to thank, the guilt overwhelmed the laziness

@carsonthecat you reminded me that I restarted watching the sopranos 6 months back or so. I will try to get back into that. My old man used to let me stay up late when that series first came out. I’m 34 now. Sorta hard to believe. I’m in not rush getting them. I’ve been wanting to try the cigar they made after the show came out. I think it was a cao? Not sure. I’ll try one at some point. Thanks a lot my friend

Raised by a jewish mother, I'm inured to guilt. Laziness still wins

Glad they made it safely and hope there are some you enjoy in there.
The Partagas 1845 is their Black Label blend
The Kooban is a Partagas Short officially, but yeah, a petit corona. It's a tasty little smoke. For clarity not the same company as the Dominican Partagas

I didn't do the dating thing for a while, but started losing track of whom I got smokes from. So I finally gave in to Palama's label shaming Sarcasm and overhauled my collection

Asks to be bombed with Gurkhas one day. Starts pawning them off on some poor soul the next. J/K Carson. Nice hit on the new guy

I'm sure your box'll make it Jake. The Xmas season has taught me patience where USPS is concerned

I'd suggest you check out the non elite PIB as well. Same basic game, but you get to ask for specific smokes you've been wanting to try

Jake, so glad you've got some NH to try! Hope you enjoy them!

SOB, you're right on the money there, but Jake said he buys Gurkhas on purpose, so I guess it's not really "pawning them off", and he's no "poor soul"! Lol!

And Benja, I certainly can't count, at all.....New guys deserve to get hit hard! When I was a n00b, y'all took NO mercy on me! Bought time I pay that kindness back!

Marcus strikes again.
Faster than a speeding bullet, more powerful than a locomotive, able to fill a PIB wants list with his bare hands!

As you guessed I got my PIB n00b & PIB Wants box today. Really thoughtful note with the list so no time wasted having to research, more smoking time!

For my N00b hit:
La Aroma de Cuba EE #1-my fav LAdC
Balmoral Anejo XO Oscuro- robusto/rothschild- NH any balmoral
Caldwell Anastia, Kartel- nh and I'm a caldwell ho
Roma Cromagnon Aquitaine, Mode 5- had and enjoyed
Oliva V Melanio,-robusto- excellent smoke
PDR AFR-75 maduro robusto
Tat Tattoo Caballero - robusto- great smoke
LFD DL600 Natural-NH
LFD DL600 Maduro-NH
Viaje Exclusivo Nic Leaded Maduro-robusto-NH and how did you know I was wishing for one when I saw your Opel hit?
10 excellent smokes( another math challenged BOTL) about half are really not n00bie but you won't catch me complaining. Many many thanks Marcus-these will all be thoroughly enjoyed.

Now the PIB Wants:
EZ Dark Chocolate Bar (2020)-I will have to lovingly stroke this one for a few months b4 I can sacrifice it to the tobacco gods- so far my favorite EZ stick
EZ Patient Zero (2020)- my 2nd favorite EZ-life is good
Stolen Throne Crook of the Crown-toro (10/19) this one won't last long
LFD Andalusian Bull (2019)-nh
DC Maxmus #4-toro (2018) top 3 favorite
Padron 2000 Natural (2019)-nh but have one chilling I can now break into
Padron 2000 Maduro (2019)-even a basic Padron is amazing
AF Magnum R44 RSG (2020)-I may have one of these from Palama, remember it to be excellent with morning coffee
Psyko Seven Maduro-corona (2017)- very excited to have one of these again
Psyko Seven Natural corona (2017)-nh but I know it will be good
Color Project Ligero by Morning robusto (2019)- love this one
BLTC Santa Muerte, short rob (2019)-yum
So it goes without saying that Marcus is way better stocked than any local brock & mortar AND he has fabulous taste.

I giggled like a schoolgirl as I opened it and I'm not ashamed to admit it!
This was my list, not just one or two but my list and then some. Has that ever happened before? Oh he did have the gall to apologize for not having any coobans or better padrons so I guess he is low.....

Tremendous thanks to you Marcus for everything.

I’m hit! A bunch of NHs thanks to Cheno.

Camacho Triple Maduro, Robusto - NH
Camacho Scorpion Sweet Tip, Robusto - Had, my son uses the cigar box to hold his marbles.
Macanudo Vintage Maduro 1997, Toro - NH
Espinosa Crema, Toro - Had and definitely like as a morning smoke
Montecristo White, Robusto - Had and also enjoy as a morning smoke
Diesel Unlimited, D.nt - NH interesting vitola.
Diesel Shorty, Gordo - NH
Alec Bradley The Lineage, Gordo - NH

Excited to try the diesels and Macanudo especially.
Thanks again Cheno!

Well I’m glad they look ok. After the delay had taken longer than I anticipated I ordered some 51mm 62percent integra boost. I figure that would be good enough to ensure anything else I send out to try to share will at least get there without damage. They were about 25 cents apiece so I figure a few of those per package couldn’t hurt things. I think they’re likely for marijuana considering they are round. I believe they go in jar tops. Nifty idea. I ran out of the small 8 gram boveda. Hopefully the plastic wrap was enough. It’s just so dry out this time of year

Jake from State Farm, thanks for hooking me up with that SOB cigar promo. Much appreciated. Though I would point out that you're supposed to start your cbid career off with actual 5ers and work your way up to postal carrier abuse. You don't want to peak too early

Inside the barely holding together SFR I found:
DPG - Blue Generoso - Love these
Henry Clay Breva - NH
Debonaire - Daybreak Sagita Petite Lancero - NH
Room 101 - The Big Payback (OR) robusto - NH
Cohiba - Black robusto - had & enjoy
CAO - Brazilia Gol - they get some flack, but I like 'em
Juan Lopez No. 3 - NH
Oliva - Melanio Churchill - NH this vitola
Torano - Single Region Serie Jalapa robusto - NH
AB - Black Market toro - NH this vitola
Oliva - Serie O torpedo - good blend NH this vitola
Henry Clay - LE 2018 perfecto - had and enjoy
La Perla - Black Pearl Morado robusto - NH
Brickhouse robusto - good smoke
Cigar Bundles of Miami - Great F#$%ing Smokes barber pole torpedo - NH Thought Snake was offering his opinion in the handy note he sent. Nope. https://imgur.com/a/sdOTn9P
and a mystery torpedo. No band. Kind of a mottled maduro, slightly on the rustic side. Jake, I could use some help with this one, but guessing NH.

For all a' youse not gud wif numbahs, that's 16 sizeable smokes in one itty bitty SFR. Benja, box packing competition has entered the field. Watch your back
Many thanks for the great selection of smokes, sir. I'm excited to have 8 new blends and a couple new sizes to try out. Nicely done.

Frank, My apologies. I was too far into the list before I thought about alphabetizing

Sunover. Glad you got a few new ones to try. The melanio in there is my favorite stick. I have 3 boxes of them and one of the figurado
The pepin blue is def one of my favorites in that list.
The mystery stick is also from cigar bundles of Miami. The name is 93 rated Mauro. It’s peppery but sorta smooth too.
The cigar bundles cigars is a shop in Miami that a couple YouTube guys I watch occasionally are really pushing. They liked them so I put in an order a while back.

That was the jakethesnake humidor sampler. Hope you enjoy.
They sent mystery sticks w no bands to me which I find odd considering if I really like one how would I know what it is. Lol

The Juan Lopez 4 i didn’t remember I put in the box. That one may be an old one. I bought ten from my brick and mortar it’s called big humidor online. Pretty awesome shop really.
Long story short I bought more of those. I have not tried yet. Not sure which I sent. If the cello is yellowish then it’s the old stick.
