I'll trade you a string, marble, paperclip, and some lint for the box- do the cigars come with it? Wait, I already got one of those. I remember now. Drink a lot before you smoke 'em- they'll go faster...

LOL @ Spaniard!

Hope my e-mail is finally up- that stinken' virus!

ROFL!!

I would douse them in gasoline and use them to light a fire in my fireplace. 😉

What did your fireplace ever do to you to deserve such cruel treatment? 😉

KC

grond so how many do you want?

According to the box, it IS a " Limited Edition "

Is that limited to how many they can sell ?

Or, is that limited to how many fit in the box ?

I won 2 Packs of 5 boxes of these things for $3 per 5 boxes. Put them on the shelf of my shop the next day a customer walked in and saw I had them marked at $3 per box and grabbed a box to try the next day he came back and bought the other 9 boxes at $3 each. Now that was a money making deal. Then yesterday he came in and wanted to know if I had any more of those good cigars that were so cheap. ROTFLMA. I guess it takes all kinds to make the world go round...Tinman

You guy's can joke all you want ... but the cigars from Costa Rica are some mighty fine cigars, IMHOl, ad not so easy to find anymore. And these have been aged for 4 years or longer.

Right now ... you can get these 'sleepers' pretty inexpensively, and it is a cigar that won't disappoint.

They are mild, but full of a sweet complex flavor ... with just a tinge of 'bite' to it. They remind me of the cigars from 'a time long ago, that has passed' ...

I tried a five pack of the Cumbre Maduro Robusto that I won here for $3 ... and couldn't believe how good they were. Great for a moring cigar with a cup of coffee, I couldn't put it down. The taste was very satisfying.

I then bid on, and won, a bundle of the Cumbre Double Corona Naturals for $16 ... and I liked it even more than the Maduro. It reminded me a lot of the Napa Reserve from the Canary Islands (yellow and black band) ... the smoke that got me hooked on cigars.

I usually don't gravitate towards the really 'cheap' cigars (as far as the bids are going), because I feel that there must be sonething wrong with them ... if nobody wants them. How wrong I was, and unfortunately, now that I've said this ... the bids are probably going to go up.

Say what you will, but as long as you people think these are 'dog-rockets', I will continue to get a very decent 'yard gar' for a 'steal' ... one that I am not afraid to set down, or even toss if something comes along that interrupts my smoking time. I am also not afraid to give these to very discriminating cigar smokers either ... just to see the expression on their faces when I tell them the price I paid for them.

I also picked up a box of the Cumbres Costa Rica Piramide Maduro and 'Senoritas', for a little more ($25 and $18), and was even surprised at how intricately beautiful and well made the boxes were. I could tell that during the 'boom', these cigars sold for a great deal more.

I'm very particular about my cigars, have tried MANY over the years that I never purchased again ... but for whatever reason ... I keep going back to get more of these gems.

BTW, I'm only speaking of the 'Cumbre' only, which is the cigar on the far left ...

... I have not tried the others in this sampler.

Slim, is that your story and are you REALLY sticking to it?

PS:They really weren't as bad as I made them out to be, but what do I know. I'll smoke petrified goat droppings dipped in formaldehyde- as long as they're Nicaraguan... Maven's working on a cigar band for 'em as we speak.

bloody spaniard --- I really wanted to dislike this cigar, and didn't have very high expectations when I first got them ...

... but I REALLY did enjoy this cigar.

I keep going back to it, each time thinking that that I must be kidding myself.

But, I keep going back to it ... and it's a good feeling to have stocked up on such a decent cigar, that I didn't have to pay and 'arm and a leg' to get!

The Cumbre even leaves a very pleasant aftertaste, and the aroma of the smoke is even better than most of the 'top shelf' cigars I've been smoking lately ... as my wife has yet to complain about 'cigar stench'.

TinMan51 --- during the cigar boom ... the retail price of the Cumbre was going for up to $8 each!

Like myself ... your customer found a great cigar that you sold to him 'dirt cheap' ... and he knows what he likes, and he also knows he was getting a great deal for them.

You probably now have a customer for life ... 😉

have several 5packs left if any body wants

... hehehe ...

I just won a box of the 'Cumbres Costa Rica Piramide Maduro' for only $22 ...

... the good deals, on a very good cigar ... they just keep pouring in ...

I've got to stock up for 'spring', you know ... when I'm out working in the yard ... LOL!

Oh crap ... you guys are probably going to start calling me ...

... Slimamaven ... criminy!

Yo Rickboli: I would not even think of calling you Slimamaven. LOL JonR

Slim...beware, you'll soon be storing them in your bathroom!
