1st post I've seen since the acronyms, (by the way thanks)

A most respectable hit...

[quote=Slimboli]Hey DED ... I believe it was you that turned me on to my first Tatuaje (Cabaiguan Guapos ... wasn't it ???) when you sent me that Ashton Crystal Ashtray engraved with 'slimboli' on it. I thougt it fitting ... and was hoping that you hadn't tried them yet.

Yep, I did send some of the O R limited release Guapos your way. They are still one of the finest cigars Pepin ever rolled for Pete to my taste and the follow-on release of both the sun grown and maduro wrapped Guapos are almost as good. I always have a few boxes on hand.

I still have a couple from the box of Dirty Rats you sent some time ago. Thats a fuller bodied smoke than my normal cigar and have been enjoyed only after a good meal. Liked them so much I bought a box to lay down to see what a few years of age do for them.

I been slim-slapped into 2012 so it's about time to light one up and contemplate a little pay back 🤔

DED

BTW I just found the thread from a slim-slapping I got back on 2009 for those of you who have not seen what one looks like up close:
