First Box of Cigars

[CigSid]

JL#2's are very close to your price range, often found on sale, and age nicely. Depending on your own taste, they may be a good one. I have "several" boxes in the cabinet, resting up....

This should have been your first box... Do it right...

I learned a little over the last decade or so. Some would say "very little" but there you go....

Just got an email from the same vendor that the JL No. 2’s are marked down from $200.00 to $163.00. Great deal IMHO!

I really enjoy these sticks! Can't beat that price.

I was just going to post that - JL#2's at $163 is a great deal, and box worthy, to be sure...!!

My first box purchase was the CAO MX2 (box pressed). Still a favorite cigar of mine.

I will second or third the AF Sungrowns…….I like both the Chateau and Double Chateau as well as the Cuban Belicoso. Try Tampa Sweethearts online for Hemingways, they usually have most of them in stock. Before diving into boxes, I would still try some samplers from internet sources or buy a variety of singles from local B and M. Good luck and happy smoking.

The selection is in! Thanks to everyone for their input and advice. It was all greatly appreciated and will be remembered for future buys.

And so it begins with the slippery slope you’re about to ride.

Is it bad that I’m trying to figure out things I can sell to buy another already? You guys weren’t joking....

Yes

....oh boy, there goes another....

Kidding aside, these are really looking great as of late, and IMHO represent a really good value in a quality smoke. Nicely done.....

Nice pick up, they look real good! I snagged a box of those 10 months ago or so. Can't beat em for that price.

ETA: I actually bought the No1's
