I've been saving my pennies since my wife and I started planning this most recent trip to the US in earnest. Sometime in late January. Initially I connected to Tampa Sweethearts looking to score a box of Anejo #48's and got to looking over their stock and prices and in the end blew my entire wad on all AF cigars. I bought the following:
1 box (25) Anejo #48
1 box (25) Hemingway Classic Maduro
2 boxes (25 ea) Flor Fina 8-5-8 Maduro
5 - Anejo 888
5 - Hemingway Untold Story
I placed the order with none other than Arturo Fuente Jr himself and had them shipped to my daughter in Portland, OR. Upon opening package I found my cigars in perfect condition along with a card with a handwritten note inside thanking me for my business and for smoking their family's cigars signed by Arturo Fuente Jr himself. Now that's a nice touch and they're definitely a class act.
Thinking ahead, I ordered some humidity beads from Heartfelt and had them shipped to my daughters place as well. I bought a cooler in a Walmart for $20 and the cigars stayed at pretty much 65% humidity the whole trip. I now have a coolerador should I ever have enough $ to overflow my 500 count humidor....
It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll.
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.
***William Ernest Henley***
