In efforts to 1) try some new sticks for myself and 2) build up the stash for what I'm sending over to the troops, here is my latest haul sent directly from the mothership! All but 3 of those cigars are from cBid.

This photo does not include the 2x Black Ops 40ct Travel Humi that they will be shipped in, the cutters for the troops, and the new humi I purchased for myself.

I haven't had any of these sticks before, so I'm curios on your thoughts!

You look like a "Cello On" person. Why is the lower right smoke not in Cello? You're messing pretty hard on my OCD. 🍺

Bottom, 2nd from right isn't bad.

Cello on until they go in the humi that is being seasoned. The bottom right 3 are from the Privada cigar club and weren't shipped in cello.

@dstieger

Looking forward to trying it out. I've never had it before!

What are the two from the club (either side of the Hit & Run?)

I believe those are Paul Stulac Screaming Red Sun and Caldwell Paradise Lost IIRC

Will the single response suffice or is repetition required? [frypan]

I think this guy may have picked these cigars based on the bands...

Did not pick based upon the bands. I've heard good things about the AB Black Market Vandals, Not a fan of Gurkah but figured I'd give the Havana blend a shot based on price. Worst case, if I don't like them they'll go to the troops. Picked the Camacho and Diesel because they're barrel aged and haven't had any barrel aged sticks yet, figured worth a shot. The other Camacho are listed as pre-embargo tobacco which seemed intriguing to me, another worth a shot stick. I've had the Torano 50 year and enjoyed them for the price.

Not everyone can afford high end sticks and each taste is to each his (or her) own. As I stated before, a good majority of these are going to the troops over seas but I grabbed ones that I'd want to try in the process. No need to run out and judge because you have nothing better to do 🇨🇮

I've smoked 20-25 of these, they're tasty. Grassy, buttery and mild spices. Cubanesque?...maybe. Good?... definitely! 🇨🇮

I actually assumed - based on the craptastic selection - that you were the same noob that checked in here earlier in the week That talked about liking the looks of gurka bands... My mistake... Apparently that was a different noob with bad taste in cigars...

Nonetheless, you've been judged... I judgeth thee and thou art found lacking...

Great way to foster the growth of the community, you have there sir. Sounds to me that you don't know how to read, as in my last post stated that I have yet to try a single one of these cigars and that the majority of these are going to the troops...
