About 1 minute after I posted, UPS called me to come get my restricted item.

Go USPS and don't say what's in it....

Say it's a T-Shirt or somethin...

This is good to know. I didn't know that they were restricted items either. They arrive in a UPS box?

Thanks! And no worries, I can wait my turn.

Stinking Humi beads still haven't shown up for my coolidor yet. And I am happy to say my humidors are full, of what? I am still sorting that out, writing things down. I went the sampler pack, and 5-pack route to try a bunch of different sticks. But the Padila Hybrid Maduro Gordo I took out of the pack straight from the UPS truck was pretty good. The others went in to rest for a bit.

I have received my end of the Noob Trade with Ryan (rlp390); I must say, I am thoroughly impressed! After discussing cigar preferences, pairings, and the St Louis Cardinals - Chicago Cubs rivalry, I believe we had a good idea of our likes and dislikes. Ryan really "nailed it" with the selection below:

Punch Presidente Maduro
Romeo y Julieta Habana Reserve (x2) - My "go-to"
Hoyo de Monterrey 1066 Dark Knight II (x2) - My Top 5 Favorite
Tatuaje Havana VI Almirantes - Oh, man!
La Reloba Habano Toro
Casa Torano Maduro Toro
Arturo Fuente Rosado Sungrown Magnum R52 - Sa-weet!

I believe a good cigar should be paired with a smooth liquor, a sweet liqeuer, a full-bodied beer, or a strong and bold cup of JOE. Although the logistics prohibited Ryan from sending me some of his homebrew, he substituted a flavorful line-up of craft beer!

Founders Brewing "Dirty Bas-tard" Scoth Style Ale
Lagunitas "Undercover Investigation Shut-Down" Ale
Bell's Brewery Porter

Ryan - Great Job! on your first trade. You sent some very fine cigars and some GREAT beer! Thank you so much for the cigars and beer! Now, it's my turn...

Mike

IUROX was my vet...perhaps I can shed some light.

Rob is an obnoxious, loudmouthed, smart-azzed, grumpy ol FUG...

...with a kind heart, a real passion for the OpFTH and supporting the troops, and a gruff demeanor with the noobs.
His bark is deafening, and he *sometimes* rubs folks the wrong way. BUT, he is old guard, dyed in the wool Cbid BOTL, and is a kick azz vet to get.

Don't let him ruffle ya. Although...the pic of him in a dress can haunt your nightmares for a while...8-[

Nice to see you round these parts, ROXy.

Mike's end of our noob trade arrived today and I gotta say I feel like even more of a noob now! He sure layed the smack down on me, I can't believe the generosity of some of the BOTL here. I don't think I've tried 1 cigar he sent me yet, hopefully I got all of the names right.

The damages:

Arturo Fuente Don Carlos #2
Arturo Fuente Anejo Reserva Xtra Viejo
Ashton Cabinet (#7?)
Ashton Magnum
AVO Signature Belicoso
Carlos Torano Master Robusto
Diamond Crown Julius Ceaser
EP Carillo Short Run
Graycliff G2 Turbo
Guillermo Leon
J Fuego 777 Corojo Toro
La Aurora 107 Toro
My Father Flor de las Antillas
Oliva Serie V Torpedo
Perdomo Reserve Criollo
Rocky Patel Vintage 2003 Cameroon
San Cristobal Elegancia Robusto

As if that wasn't enough... Mike decided to send a long a few extras.

Frangelico Liqueur (smells delicious)
Metropolis Coffee - Aspire Bold (already have this brewing, I love me some good coffee)
Cigar Cutter
Xicar Incline Lighter
Cigar Jar Humidor
A cigar journal so this noob can take notes while tasting some of the treats he sent me

What else can I say but THANK YOU! 🇨🇮

Just be warned that with all the bubble wrap and boxes I now have return fire could arrive at anytime!
