    Fiver of Oscuro, please. Postal money order for $35US going out tomorrow. If first-class postage turns out to be more (because it goes by weight), I'll catch up to you next time if that's okay with you.

    Just wondering, what size? From the Stogie Review interview, Abe Flores says that the team that rolls the Torpedo is their best team. He also said that what he smokes the most is the Oscuro Torpedo . (He also said the SG wrapper gives hints of Cuban Bolivar, but if I want to taste a Bolivar, I'll smoke a Bolivar!)

    The price I got was for the Toro 6x50. I could call for the torpedo 6x52. I don't think it would be a big price jump and I'll cover anyone that has sent a check already hefty or craig.


    craig don't worry about the little bit it might cost more. It's all good.

    I haven't done the PMO yet - I'll add in a couple bucks. Between Toro and Torp, the list prices are $7.50 apart; catalogue (famous-smoke) prices are $6 apart. Availability may be an issue, though.

    Nice of you to set this up DG. Wish I had the funds right now to get in on the PDR's. I've had both the sungrown and oscuro and they pretty tasty.

    Sounds like a great idea! I'm finding that I'm into most of the boutique brands that I try out, and I think it would be interesting to see if we could get people from different parts of the country leading splits on boxes you can't get most places, but even like this it's a great idea. Wish I could afford to join in... college....

    I talked to Luis from Don Francisco Cigars and he wasn't at the shop so he couldn't get me a price. Let's make it easy and stay with the toro. When we start talking about January box split we can discuss size.

    I'm happy with either, FWIW, I found these at newhavanacigars.com and the price difference was $5 for the box between the toros and torps.

    Wake up!

    I'm pondering a Padron split. Right now I have a price on PAM Coronas ~ $189.99/25

    Anyone else interested? I can get prices on whatever, but I'd like to keep this to the Anniversary, or the 1926s, or maybe the 80ths.

    Will

    Anyone interested in any Anejo? Just throwing it out there. I think my shop has all the sizes.
    I asked about Hemi Maduro, but he doesn't have any yet. They might come in with some alleged Opus shipment. I'm a bit interested in the hemi-maudros. I'm not a big Opus fan.
