    What Iam trying to say is. You seem to be at the point were I am. I have this -





    I do not need another box of Montes or Partagas unless I smoke the ones that I have in my smoking rotation. You are at the collecting and aging point.

    Start looking and buying the stuff that is not of the norm. Like the discontinued stuff and rarer things. There are alot of deals to be had out there. Just take your time and search.

    I would definitly invest in some Davidoff's or some Vintage Montecristo's. (Personally I recommend 1992, Montecristo #1's.)

    Otherwise, that is one fine looking collection!

    Nice Humidor, where did you pick it up from? And can you take a pic of your humidifiers? I'd love to see more of it

    Attention newbies!

    I'd just like to point out that my original post (that George was kind enough to quote below and so preserve forever on this thread) is just the kind of snotty, smartass remark that will make you no friends and if repeated once or twice is likely to cause your ass to be handed to you.

    I want to apologize to rpb67 if I gave offense, as it seems, on other evidence, that I did. All I can say is that having hung out here for a while now and got to know some of the members and the culture a little better, I'm embarassed about having posted something so gratuitously stupid.

    Thanks guys. Just trying to say that after you build your collection that you may want to start buying cigars that are more on the collectable and long term aging type.

    To answer your questions.

    1. The Partagas Reserva came from Germany and it cost me $650.00.

    2. The humidor is a custom made Stabell. Made by Bob himself. The model # is the M+.


    I need to go now. I need to lock all my doors and windows and turn my alarm on!

    If any of you guys are ever in Mass. Let me know. I would lve to herf with you guys. CC I am coming to Mohegan soon. I will PM you when I know when.

    Keep smoking guys !

    That same box costs $1200 in Calgary due to the taxes

    Only if you drop the right box of cigars in front of you.

    Jeez. You mean I should have actually read those terms of service when I registered?

    By the way, how does one become a senoir member?

    There's only two kinds of cigars, the kind you like and the kind you don't.

    Camacho Special Limited Reserve
    Montesino seems to fit the milder side but a good smoke.




    Corona Gigante I heard the new senior members are by tradition to send a Camacho to Members with over 50 posts a sampler as an encouragement to reach the next level.
    Thanks
