Cohiba....🍺

Sorry for the hijack.

A buddy of mine can pick me up a box or two every month or so during his travels but the selection is limited and prices are at retail. If anyone's comfortable pm'ing me a link to a site they have found or "heard" was reliable, I would send them a few sticks when i get them!

There's plenty of cigars your friend can pick up for you that would be worth paying retail for. Mostly b/c you can likely find some boxes with age. He'd have to know what to look for though.

I'd love to spend a couple hours in a LCDH hand picking my own boxes. With the caveat to that being I didn't have to worry about smuggling them home in my arse.

That's part of the problem as well. I think I could find my way around in there but he doesn't know much about cigars adn doesn't smoke them.

It's a huge store that has tons of 5'ers and variety but the only "shopping list" I can find online for them lists boxes and it's a bit limited. Thanks to a buddy, I found another spot already and have some of what I wanted ordered.

^ yup..figured if you flash a freebie or two around here in trade for some source info, someone would hook you up in no time!

Good luck and happy purchasing.

Smoked my first one from an '03 cab I've had for about six months now. Unreal smoothness, woodsy and even a bit sweet. Not one dimensional at all, but the changes are subtle and pleasing Buy before there are none.

I never travel through customs with cigars. The one time you get busted and they are seized (even without a fine)could end up with you being listed as someone customs will always pull aside and search. Forever.

Alright!!!!

Lifetime of free reach arounds (if your into that kind of thing)

He's got clearance and doesn't go through customs but I'm not going to go that route anymore.

Rafael Gonzalez...Duwan mentioned these...

Underated???

Only tried the Panatelas, good smoke. Smooth and mellow, but could also be due to the fact that they are '03's. I'll have to try some more out and some that are reg pro.

I thinks so. They are priced quite nicely. I picked up a box of the Spain Exclusive Perlas for $75 USD while vacationing out there and they have been tasting pretty good for box date of Feb '12.

WOW! That young?

BTW...Having an H Upmann PC and it's really good!

Just had a JL2, wasn't a huge fan. Wasn't a bad cigar by any means it just was a little to mild/bland for me. Was a 2010. Went out 5 times on me though! That was a big negative.
