This fine brother's end of our trade was recieved today and to my delight, what do i find? A pkg with a very nice selection of habanas and friends!

This brother didn't hold anything back:
...of the ISOM family...
Cohiba singlo IV
Bolivar Royal Corona
La Gloria Cubana Tainos
Punch Coronation
Montecristo #4

These were accompanied by some fine travelling compadres of the likes of C.A.O., Gurkha Regent, Macanudo and a mysterious stick i've never seen before, but will look forward to trying!

Thanks, Burgess, first class all the way. Hope the wine surpasses your expectations and gives you as much pleasure as these gars will certainly give me.

They will leave the dock late this week or early next week...i'll keep ya posted, bro!

HA! Just found out that the wife had opened my box and squirrelled away the CANDY! Very nice touch, b.

WINE flavored Kit Kats??? Strawberry, Double Berry, and Pineapple white owls (i mean kit kats)?! LOL Never seen these before. And a box of honey/chocolate bears that my wife has already opened! Sheesh. Guess you made TWO friends in this trade. Hehehe. She's a sucker for sweet stuff....

Thanks, bro, just made the deal that much SWEETER.

1-0. 1 win, 0 losses. WHOO-HOO!

i figure while i am in japan, i should add some strange yet inviting things. and Kit Kat is crazy over here. they keep getting new flavors. the wine is NEW, like just this last week. and my wife saw those honey/chocolate things, and we had to buy some...i thought they would fit nicely.

i am glad you like what you see...it took me forever shopping, but i gotta admit, i really enjoyed it!!! i saw the Macanudo and that mystery guy, and they were the DARKEST Kobe had to offer. i hope they are good, but no telling. i think it says "organic" on it.

It DOES say organic. That's a first. Organically grown tobacco. I wonder how much is grown organically anyway -- or if none of it is because they figure it's not worth the effort, trying to make a cigar sound "healthier" than the commercial competition! Either way, i'm a sucker for anything different. Great choices on both fronts, the Japanese are excellent at marketing products, and those bears are AWESOME. Tried a few last night. You da man!

glad to hear it (about the bears). we got a couple of boxes...we did not open them yet. i keep laughing about your wife HIDING them. LMAO!!!!!!!
