My secret Santa has some mad skillz. (http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Mad+Skillz) And he must be swole. (http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=swole) And he has great taste in cigars.

I came home to my wife saying, "You got a package, and it must be heavy." When I looked at my front porch, it appeared to be sagging under the weight of an innocuous USPS MFR.

Unsure if I could move the box because of it's weight, I opened it in place, hoping that the contents, once separated, would be easier to move.

Inside, I found two bubble wrapped parcels. The one I could move contained five fine cigars. They included:

Padron 6000 (nh)
Tat Fausto (freaking love these!
DE Nica Rustica (like very much)
Mickey Blake's Sun Grown (nh, looks like a limited edition)
MF El Centurion H-2K-CT (like very much)

The other package required borrowing my neighbor's engine hoist in order to bring it into the house. With careful unwrapping, it revealed an amazing, amazing ashtray! I've been drooling over Harvey's incredible work since I joined and am thrilled to finally have one of his ashtrays to call my own. My secret Santa must have some sort of HMH connection. Hmmm...

This ashtray was masterfully built and must have taken some bigger muscles than mine to build, wrap and then transport to the post office. I can't wait to use it with my Santa Cigars!

Thanks Secret Santa! Who knew that the North Pole was in Minnesota?

Santa has some incredible talents, not to mention good taste in cigars. Nice work there Papa Noel

Nice, that is a pretty sweet ashtray!

Very nice.

Poor mailman.

Yep. His arm was in a sling and he flipped me the bird today when he dropped off today's mail. I didn't have the heart to tell him I have two more hits coming...

Nice hand!

Glad you like it, mate. That's the last ashtray I'll be sending out since I'm without my welding stuff. Plus, if I recall correctly, I never made another ashtray in the same style.

Enjoy it in good health, Merry Christmas!

Thx so much, my friend. I feel privileged to have gotten one.

So freaking cool!!!

Guess I forgot to mention: the Mickey Blake's is, as far as I know, only available in one place. They're made for the store by Alec Bradley. Those were in the first couple of cigars I smoked and I still enjoy them quite a bit.

Nice going Minneapolis Santa!

I do really like that ashtray fo sho!

😱 😱

Just freekin awesome here. Well done santa. Well Harv. LOL =d> =d>

Very cool. Those ashtrays are solid conversation pieces, and will leave a mark if you happen to drop it. Love mine. Thanks again Harv, for the ash tray, and for organizing this blizzard of holiday gifts.
