What's the latest addition to your humidor?

I've not had a Filipino cigar, but I'm half-Filipino and would be interested to know your take on these.

My little brother's wife is half Filippino. Her mom was born and raised there and they have plenty of family there including an uncle who owns a resort on a lovely little island off the main one. Little brother and his wife have been there once (to her uncle's resort) and last year his mother-in-law brought him back a box of Flor de Filipinas - Londres 5.5 ", gauge 42 If memory serves me, they were a decent cigar. Medium body with a good flavor. It's been a while though since I had one.

If you're interested, the following website gives some detailed information on the most popular brands they have.

They will ship to Canada, and I suspect to the US too if you find yourself interested enough. I'd order a box or two myself but the taxes here are killer so I'm going to wait patiently......lol........little brother's mother-in-law goes quite regularly to visit family and I believe she's going this year. Next time she does we're going to get her and her ol'man to bring back 4 boxes of cigars, one each of a different brand.

I will definitely let you know what I think when I have one....I may just have one tonight. If not tonight, then certainly this weekend!
