Addy in PM, thanks for the pickup!

^make a list of what you want to smoke. What haven’t you tried that you think you’d like to try. Someone will have some of what you want.

Here goes nothing…

La Bohemia’s Poeta
Arturo Fuente Anejo xtra Viejo
La Flor Dominicana La Volcada
Olivia V series Melanio
My Father El Centurion H2K Ct
Torano Reserva Decadencia
Sobremesa Crème Brûlée
Any Aging Room
Ave Maria Reconquista

Glad they got there ok and have a few new-to-you ones you can try!

Nice looking set o' smokes

That was not a SFR....

Lee lit me up with an eighteen-er of cigars, like 90% of them never-hads for me. Damages:

1. La Aurora 1903 Maduro - nh

2. DPG Cuban Classic - been awhile, used to be a fav

3. DPG Series JJ - another one that used to be a fav of mine

4. LCA R. Last Cowboy Plata o Plomo by Sinistro - nh

5. LCA Año Viejo 2021 by Kafie - nh

6. LCA Ladykiller by Southern Draw - nh, have enjoyed a few other Southern Draw cigars, so excited to try this out

7. LCA Jouët - nh

8. Privada Classique - nh

9. Plascencia Cosecha 146 - nh, this keeps.me.from buying a box blind

10. Cuban Stock Extra - nh

11. Cuban Stock Royal Selection - nh, apparently these Cuban Stock are a local roll, so interested to see how it smokes.

12. Vegueros Entretiempo

13. Party Short - DED is gonna be jelly, LOL. Over over the top for a PIB throw-in so, technically, on-brand for this motley crew.

14. Aging Room Solera - nh, for some reason I've never had much urge to try their stuff, maybe be it was the fact that they are an Oliveras brand and those used to be...not good...but I do see lots of people smoking this brand so guessing they were ultimately successful in creating good blends. Excited to try.

15. Hoyo La Amistad by AJF - nh

16. Hoyo La Amistad Maduro - nh

17. Punch Estate Collection - nh, I have this aversion to buying the faux cuban heritage brands, something about them has always made me cringe. Like, Punch to me is a Cuban marca, so I feel like if these cigars were under a new label, forging their own brand (like DPG/Tatuaje/DE, etc) instead I'd probably give them more of a look. Will be interesting to see what I've been missing.

18. Wrath by Oliva - nh, apparently these are all Jake's fault, LOL. I've tended to stick with the various iterations of the V line over the years, after they disco'd my favorite blend (the old, blue cloth banded Bold O's), so interested to explore another line.

Thanks again for the pickup, lots of new stuff to try, plus some old favorites.

I will give it one day before the outrage will commence.

No list outrage!

Joining in the outrage, maybe some adds to the list are in order?

So if I am keeping track of the turns, Lee is fixin to get double bombed (I.e., the 1945 Japanese special).

Ahhhh, forgot Lee gifted to Mraia after the CBD bombing. Always have a hard time keeping track of these things. Thanks for settin me straight.

I was trying my hand at misdirection.

Let me give this some thought.

And thank you Dan, for the turn.

How much more thought does this guy need?

NO LIST OUTRAGE!

Fine.

Bottom line, I will be grateful for whatever anyone wants to send and am not that picky. I like cigars!

More specifically,
Any daily smoke / yardgar you are into (maybe I will be too)
Any house blend from your local B&M
Any new school Connie
Anything by EZ, Viaje, BLTC, Tat, etc.
Any cigar you bought with high expectations only to be disappointed in (maybe I won’t be)
Any cigar that reminds you of your first girlfriend (but NOT if your first girlfriend is your first ex-wife)
Any cigar that knows what “confirmation bias” is
Any cigar that makes hipsters cry
Any cigar condemned to repeat itself
Any cigar condemned to repeat itself
Any cigar that you think Danny DeVito should have smoked on the set of Taxi
Any cigar that comes with truck nuts
Any cigar that has read “The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind” by Julian Jaynes
Any cigar that doesn’t care that it is apathetic
Any cigar that has been kicked out of a bar, been in a fight, wrecked a car, been arrested, posted bail, and woken up in a different town beside a drag queen, with no memory of any of it
Any cigar that has sworn off drinking
Any cigar that thinks Stogie actually is “cabana boy material”
Any cigar that really shouldn’t wear a blouse that tight
Any cigar immature for its age
Any cigar Chuck Norris would smoke in bed (face down)
Any cigar that avoids work by making lists

If you need even more specificity, I went through some of my previous lists to see what I have expressed an interest in at some point, and added a couple:

Rojas Carnitas
Cohiba Macassar
LFD La Nox
Blackened Cigars (the one associated with James Hetfield)
Knuckle Sandwich
Anything by Micallef
Famous 3000
Nica Rustica Adobe
CAO BX3
CAO Flathead
H. Upmann by AJF
Ramon Allones by AJF
RP Decade
RP Flor de Saint Andrés
AVO Synco Ritmo
Trinidad Espiritu #2
Padilla Dominus
Obsidian Redrum
Graycliff Triple Espresso

I would, but you’d be getting a black and mild 😂

Thank you for the pickup Conan!



But I think Article II, Section A(1)(c)(ii) of the bylaws prohibit you from giving me your new turn. Actually, I'm pretty sure it does. Nice try though...

Objection overruled!

Funny!

The mean part of me wants to say Asylum The Ogre, but I'm not going to say that.

Y'all can't do it this way! Other people have to participate.

SOB is going to overrule all of this!

Hahahaha! Silly wabbit! Dontcha know, it LeeBot hunting season now! Some of us have been patiently, and I do mean patiently, waiting for this day.

As one of my favorite FOGs would say: “This isn’t going to end well.”

Alright then I got Lee. PM me your address I'm packing a box now.

Look at the good times I've been missing. SOB's thoughts in no particular order:

I ain't overruling chit. As the recipient of a near endless carousel of gifting, you've got a couple more rounds before ya can really start griping

To summarize for any confused noobs
- I gifted to Lee
- Lee attempted some shenanigans which were rejected
- Palama picked up Lee then gifted back to Lee
- Jake picked up Lee then gifted back to Lee
- Papa picked up Lee
- it's PW's, or his designee's should he choose to go that route, turn next
Easy peasy

The Asylum Ogre is an darn good cigar in its more restrained violas

Apologies to Mraia. I've been jammed up over here, but will get your box out within a few days

Thank you for explaining. The box is packed and ready to go. I kinda had fun packing from Lee's list. We'll see if he can match the ones that weren't from his specific list. Just need an address.

You're all good, PW. Palama has Lee. Jake has Lee, and you have Lee. It's a great time to be Lee
