America's #1 Online Cigar Auction
first, best, biggest!

Tele always sends interesting smokes. Very nice smack attack. I hope you enjoy those my brother!

I do have to apologize to SOB I used that hateful name at the end BIDEN THE DUMBASS. I should have never posted that.

Nah
All was going good till a few weeks ago when Corey decided he had to get rid of half of his collection.

I’ve been digging out all week from some of the damage you’ve caused me, JGRAZ!

Just go ahead and set it to 5 . This is my las bomb on here . If you think that was halve of my collection you are badly mistaken. That was not even a 64th . I will now show you you . Just trying to figure out if the box will hold it all . 2016 and has not been made since . SOB is fixing to have to add more storage . I hope he shares with youse guys.

I am mostly good w chaos, but we do need some structure . But I like passing my turn. I get to hit somebody vicariously without having to actually put a box together. It's very lazy, err, I mean "efficient.". I am nothing if not "efficient."

Got to rally the nOOb"s

Haha. I heard you was selling all your gifted stuff.

He’s already on the list…are we putting him on twice?

Surely that’s not a box of cigars, it looks like my shipment of textbooks, I thought to myself. However, Jeebs’ wrath does not know the confines of typical procedure.

And as if that weren’t enough, he threw in some pecan treats as well.

Clearly Jeebs can’t read, these are not noob smokes at all. Further, he somehow raided my phone to find my list of cigars I wanted to try without my knowledge.

Anyways, thanks for the bomb Jeebs, I can’t imagine I’ll smoke through these for a couple years at the rate I smoke. Hell of a bomb, brother.

That's crazy! Jeebs is leaving a path of destruction in his wake.

Huzza, you are most welcome. At your rate of consumption some of those will be able to rest well. I hope you enjoy.

OBTW, did you get an alphabetical inventory w/that? Today while tidying up my explosives assembly area I found a list of smokes that were in alphabetical order. I hope I didn’t forget to put that in the box and you had a pain in the azz sorting it out.

Oh yes, I remember now. I had a stack of them that were covered by the bags and I missed them, had to work them back through. Anyway, I’m glad you had it covered from jump.

I was gone for the weekend visiting DOD for father's day. Upon my return I found a box that weighs just a bit too much to be a simple nOOb hit, direct from B.21. Well, I opened it to find a nice hit of cigars along with a couple surprises. I'm thinking B.21 is pretty good at this trade/PIB stuff.

Details to follow when I get a list together

Jeebs I'll get your box packed up and shipped today

Take your time, Tele. Postpone’till October if you like 😂

I’m not a huge coffee drinker and the name caught my attention. So hope you like it. Enjoy those smokes buddy!!! That Gurkha isn’t terrible but it’s also not great.

Box from Tiver landed! He has apparently been keeping track of sticks in my wheelhouse based off of posts in this forum. Here are the damages :

-Buffalo Trace (smoked one at the buffalo trace distillery, which isn’t too far from me. Great smoke)
-Camacho Corojo (NH)
-CAO Cameroon (NH)
-Carlos Torano Exodus 1958 (NH)
-CH La Careme (I’m always pumped to have more of these. It’s like smoking a snickers bar)
-Laranja Reserva (NH)
-MF Flor de las Antillas (Stellar smoke, the last one I smoked was fantastic)
-Oliva CT (great smooth Connie)
-Oliva Serie O (had one ROTT before, looking forward to trying another)
-Perdomo Champagne (great Connie)
-Plasencia Reserva Original (NH)
-Warped Corto (already have some resting, glad to have another!)
-Zino Platinum (also an old favorite)

I think the fact that you went through my previous posts to send me some old favorites makes the package even more meaningful. Thanks for the smokes, Greg. I look forward to them!

TIVER 18 JUNE ‘24

Tiver, you dropped a bomb on me. Seriously, these are cigars that I would select for myself. I’ve only tried a couple of these but I’ve never had them in these vitolas. I’m stoked with the Corona and Rothschild bag as I’ve been looking for these vitolas recently. Luckily, I haven’t pulled the trigger on any of these blends except the CH La Caréme and I have that in the Toro parked in storage awaiting cooler weather to come before I burn it. I intend to smoke a few of these right away. Thank you for another awesome box of smokes my brother from another mother.

Damage assessment, 16 spectacular cigars:
AJF San Lotano Requiem Maduro Rob
CAO Flathead 450 Sparkplug Rothschild
Carlos Toraño Exodus 1959 Rob
Crowned Heads Le Carème Rob
Crowned Heads Maduro Earl “Coronet”
Espinosa 601 Oscuro
Hoyt Quick Draw Corona
JdN Antaño Dark Corojo Rothschild, never seen this and it intrigues me
MF FdlA Sun Grown Belicoso
Oliva Master Blend 3 Rothschild I think
Oliva Serie O Rob
Padron Series 5000 Maduro Rob
Polpetta Rothschild I think
Ramon Bueso Genesis Oscuro Rob
Tat Havana VI Hermosos Rob
Warped Corto Rothschild I think

Some of the ones I identified as Rothschild may be Corona, my apologies to all you FOGs. The rest are Robusto. Tiver could be a mind reader. I’m truly excited to try these never-hads. Thanks again, Tiver for this thoughtful and generous gift.

I saw you were having a hard time with the heat so put out a few "shorter" duration smokes for your warm weather enjoyment.

petite corona corona robusto petite rob rothschild whatever as long as you enojoy

CH Coronetta Maduro Earl (5 x 52) with thanks to Tiver.

Can’t think of a better cigar I’ve smoked this year. The Monte CC from Delta was awesome but in a different, lighter blend. The two aren’t fairly comparable.

(Post edit: Grab your Tele-nubber and your ballz, this is a fantastic cigar)

Never heard of this until Tiver mentioned it. It is a beautiful cigar with immaculate seems and no veins to speak of. It is firm in the hand but not brittle. One tiny indentation near the foot that was not mushy and presented no problems at all. The foot has a more fruity scent than the body, which has a curious “shop-like” smell that is pleasant. Cold draw tastes either like mild crabapples or cherries that are still firm. Kick off with some black pepper, maybe a hickory lick, and something fruity, floral and sweet. Excellent draw, perfect for my smoking preference. The cigar strikes me as a dry smoker and I like it that way. I’m a noob so I’m not sure if I’m identifying that dryness properly. 3 tokes in strong pizza crust, the brown bits that bubble up over the dough. Hickory smoke and pizza crust dominate, tiny edge of black pepper flavor with a gentle warmth on the backend roof of my mouth. This is mighty close in flavor to Tatuaje Black that has been aged properly for 6 or 7 years. I’ve installed my patented Tele-nubber early because I don’t want to goof it when the cigar wrapper is warm. Beginning transition to second third the Hickory is dominant but balanced, pizza crust is greatly diminished but has firm presence, discernible note of cocoa nib and scant hint of warming cinnamon enter the mix. Wow! The flavor of a jalapeño burned into pizza crust bursts onto the stage and steals the scene with mouth warming flavor. That alternates with a mix of bitter cocoa and orange peel. No salinity up to this point. Perfect burn line and impressive ash, cool smoker even though I’m abusing it. The sweetness of the dark and sticky MSA wrapper remains constant and on the low, no molasses or mineral profile whatsoever that I expect from MSA or the chewy Brazilian and C/PBL wrappers. There has been an elusive note in the retro which is just beginning to show a more creamy texture. The bitter side of roasted Chestnuts jumps in with more black pepper. Still in second third I’m getting hay on some of the draws, very mouth warming spicy effects. Entering final third suddenly need a minor touch up on burn line. Well into final third and the retro is an exhilarating burn. Flavors collapsing but there is burned brown sugar and burned Pecan with some Cedar. Finishing up in grand Ernest Perillo-Cortez fashion, the MSA burned sweetness is pretty much the only flavor, big and bold and stout, retro exquisitely singeing my nostrils. Thank you, Tiver! This was a fantastic cigar.

4x48 I'd say closest to a Rothschild

Polpetta is in the same vein as the Liga Papas Fritas. Mixed filler. Cuts from their premium and added long filler. Lots of brothers have issue with the prices and I might also. I did get these in a 5er for $25 and that was a great point to give it a shot. I posted simple impressions in the azzhats 1000000 thread that hit some of your points. I think they would benefit from a few months rest, but were not wasted on an immediate smoke. I think there's meat on them bones.

Overall i feel they are hiding a bit complexity that could mature with a little rest. I would buy again at $5ea

Esteban Carreras 187 Maduro Toro with thanks to CHENO

Never heard of this outside of the gift by Cheno.
Toothy Nic Maduro, it’s a Puro by AJF. Shiny and oily, streaked dark, flat veins and seems, smells like aged tobacco and a doughnut shop, chocolate on foot, not much on cold draw. Very earthy on kickoff with black pepper, leather and smidgen of anise. Easy draw. I expected more black pepper from AJF Nic but this was not homicidal. The burn line is self correcting but has my eye worried, foot throwing off a bit too much smoke for my liking. Nice mellow savory flavor and lemon balm on tame retro. Second third good balance of savory, sweet, salty notes. Cigar might be a tad under filled, throwing off a lot of smoke, smoke production on draw is variable and I need to keep after it or it tries to die on me. Final third, burn line still ugly but self-correcting, nice savory flavor but kinda monotonous. Black pepper conspicuously absent and retro is very mellow. Burn line required 1 touch up in final third, smoke production all but gone except from foot. Double bumping the draw at the nub I’m getting molasses, burned coffee, no salinity or minerals. Smoke time about an hour fifteen which seems kinda quick. I think the cigar may have been under filled and could have used another month at proper RH. The box this was in in March and April was around 70 to 72, since end of April around 64-66. It was a bit too moist, my fault. A good cigar w/potential, thank you, Greg.
