I have a full box of Partagas 898's that I am looking to trade for those elusive Oliva O Maduro Ole's. 8-9-8 BOX OF 25 (reg.$156.25) 6.9 x 44 CI sells them for $105.95. However, these cigars are packaged in the solid cedar chest and NOT the cardboard box. Obviously, I am looking for stronger sticks. Email me with a deal. I will also look at a combo package of Maduros and Naturals. [email protected]

Are these the Varnished selection?

I think that the only way these come, outside of the normal cardboard box is "varnished". The box looks like a Romeo y Julieta Vintage box - Cedar, rounded sides, varnished outside w/the numbers 8-9-8 on the lower right-hand corner. This is my second box of these and they are very good - spicy. I just am loaded with cameroon sticks and already have one box of these, 2 boxes of Partagas #1's and a box of Limited Reserve Regals (the Regals are about 3 years old and have aged dark and oily like a maduro - gosh they are great!!)

Keith has more cigars than Nick Perdomo, Carlito Fuente and Cano Ozgener combined!...LOL

Keith also has spent so much money on sticks that he has no money left to purchase matches to light them with:(
