Thanks. I may have to bite this time. I have won over a dozen singles here for $2.50, but that those wins are few and far between.

Same place, just snagged 2 boxes of skinny monsters (cazadores) for $67 each... With free shipping that's about as cheap as I've seen them this year...

PMs sent to Dave and Curly. Even though I can sometimes get them here for less, I just had to pull the trigger.

Just smoked one (MB3, torpedo) that I got from this same deal in Dec 2017. 14 months of age. Great construction and even burn, flavor was good, but not exceptional, strength was medium. At the $3 each deal price, I'd much rather tack on another $1 and get the considerably-superior $4 Chief Cool Arrow from the same place (along with yet another of those gorgeous boxes, even though I'll probably give it away because I have a lot of them already).

The Chief costs 33% more but is more than 33% better IMO. Many more flavors in there, much more complexity (5-nation blend), also more strength (even though the Chief is already aged over 2 years), and construction is even slightly better, thus I'll pass on the MB3 deal. I have several of the MB3 deals already aging away, anyway.

Mittens, if the Monticello sampler goes on sale, it's worth checking out. I think you would like that particular cigar and comes with mb3s, melanios and regular v's.

Dammitall!! It's irresponsible to put this info out where any impressionable mind can see it. Monsters and Arrows on the way. Need to go Tupperware shopping now 😣

I know the feeling. I had to go out and buy another 116-quart Sterilite container just for all the Chief boxes I bought.

If you haven't bought/tried the Chief yet, here's some helpful info:

Unless you have some kind of hatred of San Andreas maduro leaf, or maduros in general, I cannot possibly imagine you'll regret laying out the cash for the Chief. It's perfectly rolled, complex as hell, powerful and delicious.

With the Chief there are two rules for getting maximum performance: (1) DO NOT smoke when humidity in the air is high (during/after a rain, on a humid day, etc.) and (2) smoke SLOWLY, you'll get the full range of complex, nuanced flavors, fast smoking destroys them. These rules go for cigars in general, but are extra important with the Chief.

Note that the box IS NOT HINGED. The first time I opened a Chief box I assumed it was, and the beautiful glossy-finished lid began falling toward the floor, where it would've been scratched or dented. Luckily I caught it in mid-fall! The lid is not attached, so be careful removing it.

Also, right after you open the lid the first time, stick your nose in the box and sniff deeply. Mmmmmr, orange chocolate. It's also in the taste when smoked, too! Never experienced that with any other stick.

Lol, I have yet to find any leaf I have hatred towards. I've been wanting to try the Chief and the Tats for a while and the combo pushed me over the edge.

Much appreciation for the warnings and advice. I will do my best to stick to them for the other 19. But I have zero chill when I get new smokes so that first one is a goner. Think Cookie Monster but with tobacco

Been waiting a long time for the sale and got a sampler just a couple of weeks ago. Not sure how much I will like them. I have some robustos with a year or so rest on them and I still haven't tried one of them yet.
