Here is my new top shelf with the cigars from the OPFTH auction cigars.

Had to bump a few things to make room for them.

So this is a picture of my "collection", though it's ever changing because I pick off it from time to time.

You must be blind, there are 4 tats in the picture (1 got bumped).

Brex? RC? What's the 3rd? One of the TAA's?

Pretty AF/Padron heavy...overrated?

TAA 50th, RC, CQ1 and bumped a TAA 2014.

There were more tats on there at one point, but I smoked them.

... But I like Padrons and Fuentes :P

Edit (noticed your edit):

Yes, look at me!!!

Showing off my cigars in a cigar forum, oh the shame.

The secretos was a filler smoke underneath (can only fit smaller cigars under the big ones), but the chille pepper Opus replaced it. The secretos got smoked on Sunday.

Unfamiliar with the CQ1 - have you smoked others? Impressions?

I thought I was over Pete's one-offs, but couldn't pass up adding to mine with Zito's auction

I've never had one either, it's the only one I got. ABrignac sent it to me a few years back, and on the shelf it's sat ever since. Think he sent me the RC too (never had one of those either lol).

I hear the CQ1s were amazing though. Tough thing for me with those older rarer smokes is I'm always afraid I'm going to be disappointed with them, and once they're gone, they're gone.

I'm same way....probably a couple dozen unicorn singles that I've never tried - in a way, slightly disappointing might be better, since there won't be another

I'll probably just end up doing what Tim did and offer them to charity auction - another place does a forum-wide auction for troops once or twice every year...at least that would be better than my widow's next husband smoking them

lol, true. I have smoked a few older unicorns... thus the fear... you got an excellent point with the wife's next husband though.

The tat with the foil, which is that? RQ-something-er-nother? Local has had a couple for many years... $25 each... always thought about it but always reached for the black labels instead...

Very nice selection you got there and thanks for the help to OpFth that was much appreciated.

I am older so I took the words from Cycleman that he gave me many years ago. Smoke what you got, life is short.

I have smoked many great vintage smokes and some that had lost their zip so to speak. It is and has been a great journey.

But at the end of the day, enjoy what you have and if you can help other's, that is even better.

That one I think is the RC184. The bigger one is the 233. I've seen them at one local here, not sure if they still have them or not... thought about buying one before to try it, but that place has so much, so it's hard to choose unless your just dripping cash out of your pockets.

Why does the cello look frosty ?
Do you keep them in a fridge ?
Serious question.

Some wise words all the way around. To paraphrase the great Ron White... I do fully intend to smoke each and every cigar on that shelf eventually :)

Most of everything on there I have (or had) multiple of, though there are a handful exceptions.

Thanks again for the opportunity to try these rarities and your generosity for a worthy cause.
