Yes there is quite a bit of difference in colors. In all honesty, besides the pepper, it is quite bland. For the price of this stick, I have had much better.

Jay $108 is a deal.

Ronin the box arrived I feel bad you sent a second one. I'll hit up up when you are unsuspecting. How much age is on the R&J. Lonsdale is my favorite vitola, and when R&J are on they as good as any cuban.

I'm glad that they arrived this time. So here is the deal on the R&J (I'm glad you asked or I would have forgotten to tell you). They were recommended to me by Jeff Yarchin.

My understanding is that the R&J Cazadores is the strongest cuban cigar currently in production and is the closest thing to old school Cubans today. They are not smokable until they have 5 years on them. These had 6 when I bought them last year, and are close to 7 years now.

Enjoy, and congrats again on the new job!

Is that what this is? Im not sure where i got it from and it arrived with the foot messed up like so. Was wondering if i should clip the foot a little or just fire it up as is.

Jay,

That is from the bundle I sent you in August (with the Monte #2 and the Year of the Monkey) I promise the foot did not look like that when I sent it to you. (and yes, it is the same stick I described to Gator)

I need to do a better job of packaging. Sorry about that.

It wasnt smashed or damaged during shipping. Box looked good. I think the texas heat got to it.

Tatuesday.

Roma Craft Neanderthal this evening. After an extremely shitty day at work I needed a strong stick. This is helping quite nicely!

Anyone want to split or go in on a box of Davidoff CHEF edition from 2015 blend?

They come in a 10 count box and are $33/stick.

I love them, but not enoght to buy a whole box on my own.

I won a powerball in a cigar group.

Sweet jay, so how many players in the powerball? AND does every one in the group sends you cigars correct? I was in a powerball group with 15 guys it was a fiver of premium cigars. After 5 or 6 months I got out and the next month my number hit by the new guy. I was so pissed.

Not familiar with the Powerball concept?

The one I was in was 15 guys last power ball drawing of the month, the power ball is the winning number. Everyone sends the winner 5 cigars.

Time for some broadleaf.

26 slots (26 possible powerball numbers) cost is X per slot. In this case it was 3$ a spot or 5$ for 2. I bought 4 so 10$ for 5 smokes and the ashtray. I see high dollar cuban PBs like a box of BHK52s where its 30$ a spot. I only play when its cheap. So you pick your number 1-26 or numbers. If one of your numbers is the winning PB # for the night you win.

FYI more Tatuaje seconds hit newhavanacigars they are broadleaf, I am 99% sure they are monster pudgy Frank's at 5 5/8"x49 for $8.

I know you ordered the Tatuaje sampler but I these are a good deal I figured it would post it up.

I gotta cut myself off. My humidors are full and the Mrs got 2 tickets to the Texas cigar festival in april. Our 2 tickets will get me another 100 smokes and that night everything is 25% off. I plan on buying another Humidor and a box of padron #50s. At the very least. I have about 600$ stashed away for that night.

Yeah I'm supposed to be on a buying freeze but I just bought some Tatuaje Negociant

Serious got some of these in this morning. I got the last 5 pack.
