Still have an occasional shipment go "missing" but it seems to be rare these days. Policy seems to be at the whim of Customs kinda like the IRS. |

Had a 2010 PSD4 and a PL Encantos this weekend.
I've not been terribly impressed with '10 (nor 11) PSD4's, but I will say that this one is finally approaching 'pretty good' status. I'm getting too old to start buying cigars that are going to take six or more years to get there......Encantos was much better than previously, also...fortunately, these are only about 5 years old :) I'm going to concentrate more on buying more cigars that are already aged.....or I'm confident that I like on the fresher side |

In India right now. Picked up a pack of Siglo II's and a pack of Serie D no 4 in Dubai. They've been phemoninal. Planning on picking up a few boxes of cigars on the way home. I noticed that a box of Cohiba lanceros were $100 cheaper at the duty free than online. |
