    Default What's the latest addition to your humidor?

    I picked up a fiver of each from the devil site.

    Those 5 Vegas A's are good, especially for the $. Look for the Cubita SMS, another good smoke that you can score for under $2 each.

    Got a box of Avo Dominan #50's, 5 Gispert Maduro Beli, a 4 pack of Bahia and a 6 pack of Bucanero.
    The very existence of flame-throwers proves that some time, somewhere, someone said to themselves, "You know, I want to set those people over there on fire, but I'm just not close enough to get the job done." -unknown

    Dang Drew, you're really enjoying that macro setting on your camera. Those SCDLH look familiar.

    Nice score by the way.

    Yes, the two new releases have a second band. I had a little trouble acquiring them at a decent price. Apparently they were a special release for La Casa Del Habana, and that is what the second band says. The were originally released a few years back in the 5th anniversary case with 3 other sizes. I have never had a SCDLH before these, although I do have an El Morro in my humi that was graciously gifted to me.

    I think compared to other cigars I have tried in that particular vitola, it is probably my favorite. The draw is slightly tight, but it opens up after the first couple inches, and I love the flavor...but please don't ask me to describe it.

    Ted,

    The cigars where originally produced for this http://www.cigarone.com/paradise/vin...hp?idvintage=2 but were also released seperately at a later date. The 2nd band commemrorates something about Le Casa Del Habano, but i cannot remember what. I am currently looking at a Mercaderes and trying not to drool, the aroma is incredible.

    and thanks. The Mercaderes looks pretty damn interesting. The humi on that site ain't bad either.
