Thanks for the reminder on the list numbers. P/T's edited.

Pass has landed today. Humidity is 73%, Temperature 63 degrees. I inventoried the cigars and all are accounted for (absent the Centurion). The box has seen its better days and the corners are losing rigidity. I will replace with a new shipping box (of course I had the perfect box I threw away on...

While I have not purchased one of these, I can tell you that you should feel free to negotiate on the price. A local B&M has them for sale as singles. Good shop and the owner is a nice guy. When discussing how he would price them originally, he thought $106 ($5300/50). I reminded him that this...

Best wishes and prayers for you and your family. 

Pass Package Update   I went to the post office Saturday morning. The USPS tracking showed the package was "in" but apparently there is an additional "step".  At any point, they said it had not been received for delivery. It was around 8:30, and this location closes at noon. I could not make it...

Thanks for the handoff Nick. Will let the group know when received.

I wasn't paying attention until the chic pics showed up.   Question, why is this under the Completed Pass category ?

Is she coming in the package ? Just need to know so I can straighten up a bit.

"Remember, cigars are like women's breasts, you need to touch & feel them in order to get more familiar with their finest traits."   Really ?? Lmao, worst analogy ever for something that you cut and smoke to develop familiarity. 

I checked in with Nick, so standing by when he is ready.

I had found that the Padron's over the past few years did not resonate with me the same. I noticed this in '09/10, but honestly, I had moved to Denver and thought maybe the altitude has affected my taste buds.   To Gary's post above, excellent point.   The way Padron managed the 50th anniversary...

Gurka has good swag, but their sticks are hit or miss. I have found the 15 Year Cellar Reserve is not a bad stick. Price is also a factor. In my view they have too many varieties so taste will range widely. Some smoke like a '72 Buick burning oil. Its a brand whose taste definitely varies even...

I kept wondering where this thread was. I was looking in the wrong place. Glad I found it and keep them posting. Always the best thread of the year !   Cparker

Although I think, (with the scratch of Jvel79) I should be ok, to avoid any issue, just letting the pass know I am out of town Dec. 4-8, so should the pass be headed in my direction, I will not be able to respond until Dec 9.   Thanks   Cparker

Well, I am trying a new diet based on blood type, and according to my blood type corn is bad and so is distilled liquor. So, I will use this as a basis for just giving up on bourbon. Hell, since I can't get it, its really sleeves off my vest.

Judas H Priest....at the prices for Eagle Rare 17 and Sazerac 18, I'll freaking switch to Tito's vodka and retire early.   It is obscene that in less than 7 years something has gone up in price over 1000%.  I could have Warren Buffet's money and I would not pay that price.   Cparker

Sorry for thread jumping, but Bethlehem Steel, that's an icon of the past. (At least, for me)

I picked up a Dunhill Signed Range Churchill at a local brick & mortar store. The price was $15.60. I was interested in this cigar because I have recently smoked the Davidoff Nicaragua Diadema and it is one of my current favorites. Now, these cigars are expensive (to me) and are not an everyday...

Nothing in the Ga area that I can find. I am being told here that most is allocated to restaurants, and the local stores have it sold when it hits the dock.   If anyone has a line on BTAC or Pappy, please PM me. I have one pour of Sazerac 18 left, and no more Eagle Rare 17. If I could get just...
