I have seen these at two locals selling as singles. I picked up a couple of 135th ann. (Cedar wrapped w/ red foot band, mad.) at the same place, I sent one out in a trade. I thought I had the 75s.

Hey Beat,

Yes, they're available elsewhere but those sources show signs of drying up. When 1st introduced they were offered in in 4 variations: naturals, maduros, oscuros, and a mixed box with 25 of each type. I like the oscuros the best. But you like what you like. Although judging from your posts and our trades I think we have similar tastes. You may not be aware of it, but I pay attention to your posts,(and those of one or two others), because of this. You haven't steered me wrong yet. The box works well as a humidor, too.

I think I might have sent you a couple in one of our trades, didn't I?

I'm treating the rest of my stash of these very carefully. I like this cigar as much as any I've ever smoked. And soon they'll be gone FOREVER!!! sniff, sniff

BTW, I'm still trying to get hold of a couple Partagas Spanish Rosados that I saw you comment on. Ironically, they've been going for over retail on CBID so I'm biding my time.

THL,

Wow, am I read poster. I feel so Slimboli now.

I don't know what to say. Well I do but Ill refrain from my usual smarta$$edness.

Willing to trade a 75th for the SR??? Maybe? Perhaps? well? well?...Wouldnt blame you if you didn't. They are soooo damn yummy, and even more scarce. Yes, you did send one in a trade, thats where I got hooked on 'em. One of the locals here had a chest but they went fast.

Have you tried the La Especion Tapa Negra Series IV?

Don't let it go to your head. It just means we have the same bad taste in cigars, lol!

Last night I felt like smokin' something special that I havent smoked lately... My HDM Estelo 75 box that

I use as a humi (works great) caught my eye.. I've had

the chest of the three mixes for about a year.. wasnt greatly impressed by them originally.. hoped these would be one of those that need some sleep..

Well last night I lit up a Maddie and let me tell you these have aged gracefully.. Not very dimensional but

great flavor, burn, ash..etc,etc.. glad I invested in these limited production sticks and the awesome chest.
