Glad they made it safely and hope there are some you enjoy in there.

The Partagas 1845 is their Black Label blend

The Kooban is a Partagas Short officially, but yeah, a petit corona. It's a tasty little smoke. For clarity not the same company as the Dominican Partagas

I didn't do the dating thing for a while, but started losing track of whom I got smokes from. So I finally gave in to Palama's label shaming [sarcasm] and overhauled my collection[/quote]

Sheesh, what took ya so long? 😆

I'll post dc# once I got it. 😁😁

[quote=5280Stogie]I got your message Cheno, ill got your address and will be sending smokes out to you ASAP brother!!

I'm sure your box'll make it Jake. The Xmas season has taught me patience where USPS is concerned

I'd suggest you check out the non elite PIB as well. Same basic game, but you get to ask for specific smokes you've been wanting to try

Cats can't count. Nice hit CTC

SOB, you're right on the money there, but Jake said he buys Gurkhas on purpose, so I guess it's not really "pawning them off", and he's no "poor soul"! Lol!

And Benja, I certainly can't count, at all.....New guys deserve to get hit hard! When I was a n00b, y'all took NO mercy on me! Bought time I pay that kindness back!

Faster than a speeding bullet, more powerful than a locomotive, able to fill a PIB wants list with his bare hands!

As you guessed I got my PIB n00b & PIB Wants box today. Really thoughtful note with the list so no time wasted having to research, more smoking time!

For my N00b hit:

La Aroma de Cuba EE #1-my fav LAdC

Balmoral Anejo XO Oscuro- robusto/rothschild- NH any balmoral

Caldwell Anastia, Kartel- nh and I'm a caldwell ho

Roma Cromagnon Aquitaine, Mode 5- had and enjoyed

Oliva V Melanio,-robusto- excellent smoke

PDR AFR-75 maduro robusto

Tat Tattoo Caballero - robusto- great smoke

LFD DL600 Natural-NH

LFD DL600 Maduro-NH

Viaje Exclusivo Nic Leaded Maduro-robusto-NH and how did you know I was wishing for one when I saw your Opel hit?

10 excellent smokes( another math challenged BOTL) about half are really not n00bie but you won't catch me complaining. Many many thanks Marcus-these will all be thoroughly enjoyed.

Now the PIB Wants:

EZ Dark Chocolate Bar (2020)-I will have to lovingly stroke this one for a few months b4 I can sacrifice it to the tobacco gods- so far my favorite EZ stick

EZ Patient Zero (2020)- my 2nd favorite EZ-life is good

Stolen Throne Crook of the Crown-toro (10/19) this one won't last long

LFD Andalusian Bull (2019)-nh

DC Maxmus #4-toro (2018) top 3 favorite

Padron 2000 Natural (2019)-nh but have one chilling I can now break into

Padron 2000 Maduro (2019)-even a basic Padron is amazing

AF Magnum R44 RSG (2020)-I may have one of these from Palama, remember it to be excellent with morning coffee

Psyko Seven Maduro-corona (2017)- very excited to have one of these again

Psyko Seven Natural corona (2017)-nh but I know it will be good

Color Project Ligero by Morning robusto (2019)- love this one

BLTC Santa Muerte, short rob (2019)-yum

So it goes without saying that Marcus is way better stocked than any local brock & mortar AND he has fabulous taste.

I giggled like a schoolgirl as I opened it and I'm not ashamed to admit it!

This was my list, not just one or two but my list and then some. Has that ever happened before? Oh he did have the gall to apologize for not having any coobans or better padrons so I guess he is low.....

Tremendous thanks to you Marcus for everything.

Jsnyder, I'm much more noob leaning than FOG. But someday hopefully, with a lot of work and perseverance, I too will be able to impart wisdom to future generations

And Benja, I agree on the LAdC. The EE was most certainly one of my favorites!

Hope you like it sir!!!!!!!
