Anyone had a chance to try these? I was wondering what your thoughts were. They are supposed to be fairly new. I havent been able to track down any yet.

Too funny ... I just posted to this thread early this morning ...

Very few places have them, and very few online retailers have them, but if you do a 'Google' search using XXO by Edward Nikka', you will find them!

I posted a picture of an open box of them, and it should show up tomorrow ...

I also posted the description, and the CA (for what that's worth) rating.

One thing very interesting ... is that it says they have a filler of Nicaraguan Vintage 1996 with 'Havana Strips' ...

... what, if I may ask ... are 'Havana Strips'?

I ended up finding a place on the net this morning that sells them as singles. Better than paying some of the $280 box prices that some other places were asking. I wish CBID carried some of the Hoja brand.

Wow ... Steve must be mad at me, or something ...

... he pulled the whole 'Picture Post' on me, just for accidently mentioning a cometitor's website ... he could have just editied out the line that mentioned it ...

... sheesh!

... I'll try again ... hehehe!

PULL SLIM'S! err ahhh "privileges"...

I'd be interested in knowing how they compare with the XX0 Madies. I particularly enjoy those!

Havana Strips...hmmmmmmmmm, isn't that the after-hours club Fredo took the Senator and Michael? Wasn't that the clup with Superman?

You broke my heart

Nice try Robby ... hehehe!

I was the one who contacted Steve and told him to 'edit out the line that gave the competitor's URL' ... and he accidently deleted the whole picture post ...

... so I just put it back, minus the URL ... 😉

BTW Robby ... you can pull my finger!

Pffffftt.....rrrippp. Consider your finger pulled. X :~)

I just got an email froma local store that I think has some if interested give me a email gorob23(at)yahoodot com I am goig to try and get down tothe store tomorow and see what he has .

let us know your thoughts on them after trying one please?

Robby --- I sent an email to the site that said 'new/coming soon'... and their prices posted were substantially (~$70 per box) lower than the one or two other sites that had them in stock ...

... so we will see what happens ...

Don't you just HATE it when Robby quotes the rules!!

yeah, I'm used to yanking, it hurts when I slap!
