Pat,
Thank you so much for the herf! I really enjoyed that old Pepin-era 8&11. I had never smoked that cigar before (I think I need some more.) I'll email you about the Pepin Henry Clay when I get a chance to smoke it. Much more than the cigars, I really enjoyed the 2 1/2 hours of conversation with a fellow botl! That was a fantastic time. I am in Denver periodically, and I will definitely shoot you an email and call when I am coming back so we can do it again.
Guys, I was really lucky to get such a top-quality herf on such short notice. As you all know, Pat is a super guy, and the cigar store/lounge he suggested was very nice. I was able to purchase and sample a Cain for the first time while I was there as well. Before leaving, I picked up some other really nice smokes like a Reserva SW, LAdC EE, 777, 777 Corojo, Guapos, and a Baton. It was an awesome way to spend a morning.
Pat, I will respect your wishes. If you don't want me to mail you some return fire I won't. This is impressive as I now know that you are a Fuente-Ho, and you know that I was thinking about some well-aged stuff that is really hard to find. That being said, the next time we meet to herf, don't even bother bringing your otter-box. I have 10+ year old Anejo's, Maddie Masterpieces, Opus #2's, #5's, Double Corona's, Reserve de Chateau, etc that I will make you smoke until you simply can't smoke any more...
Bwahahahahahahaahaha
Thanks again - I mean it,
TD
