Noob trade my arse….got a friendly PM from Jesse asking if the package had arrived, we’ll work had been this side of a nightmare and between late nights and on call I hadn’t checked the Mail.
Well my box had a key in it, so I proceed to attempt opening 2B. Key did NOT wanna go in, I’m guessing the Mail cow was either scared of the package or maybe a little premature exploding happened. Got it open got it home I’m opening it on my (late) lunch break. First thing I notice is I’ve been turned into Grandpa Joe from Charlie and the Chocolate factory because inside the box is a golden sleeve of cigars. I pull the magic ticket out and…there’s more in the box. A silver sleeve with a mysterious unlabeled cake block of pipe tobacco that smells great, and TWO freaking tins. One time of C&D Small Batch Sun Bear a Virginia blend with Orientals (SPC Mississippi River Reserve is my go to change of pace tobacco) with locust honey? Sounds very interesting and I do like C&D. 2nd is a tin of C&D Small Batch Carolina Red Flake. This one really made me smile, I got the email when this was released and thought it sounded awesome but even after the fire I reloaded on my essentials pretty quick so I wanted it I didn’t need it…..and now I can try it! And now Willy Wonka’s bag of fun!
Room 101 Farce CT robusto never had
Padron 3000 maduro (?) had a few!
Aging Room Quattro Maestro NH my local had one box and it went fast.
Room 101 Farce It is a Papchulo (maduro?) love the size (never had)
Rojas Street Tacos Barbacoa toro. Never heard of nor had but I do love the tacos….
Montecristo Espada toro I’m not sure but I think I’ve had one? Drinking may have been involved.
Camacho Triple Maduro 60 I have only had one and it was a robusto
Southern Draw Fraternal Order Black big SOB. Never heard of nor had, Rose of Sharon and Jacobs Ladder are the only two I’ve had and I enjoyed them. Look forward to trying this when I can dedicate the 2 hours!
Thank you Jesse very generous package and I was really surprised with the pipe tobacco I generally don’t talk about it as much here as cigars (maybe in my mind?!) did not expect to see any and I’m curious what the unlabeled cake is in the silver Mylar baggie.
