Journey to Chateau de la Fuente?

[Pwnstar590]

I jsut got an email today from a local B&M about a Bolivar event on the 19th. I went to their "specials and events page" and scrolled down to see this:

Prometheus presents...
Journey to Chateau de la Fuente
Orginal Music by Arturo Sandoval with:
Three Rare Fuente Fuente OpusX......$149.95

It doesn't say what cigars they are but there is a picture.


Here is a link tot he page itself-third thing down

As some of you may know I was looking for something nice to smoke for my graduation in may. Would this be worth picking up, or is it more of a collectors thing? Also, Should I make the trip to the Bolivar event? I have never smoked any of their sticks before so I have no clue as to their taste.

NO - this is not worth picking up.

and

NO - the new boli's =

There are still opus out there. I was at a shop today with a few, some power rangers and a couple larger ones. They also had a couple of collector cases. These were opus 3 packs, one was a robusto and 2 were perfection. It is a metal package, looks like a leather 3 finger but metal, with 3 cigars. The robusto was 45 and the perfection was 49.

loads less than what your looking at.

That is what I figured. however I have a feeling finding any top shelf smokes near here will be difficult.

I haven't been to the store in question yet, as there are 2 closer, so I don't know what they have there. Perhaps I should go on the Bolivar day anyways to check it out and pick up a free smoke or two while I'm at it. The worse that will happen is I won't like them.

when do you graduate?

I might be at my firms other office next week, the store in question is just down the street. I can check on the opus.

They also had a few anejo 46's.

I don't graduate until the first week or two of May, I am just starting to look for something now to put away for a few months.

Its not that far of a trip for me really, there are just two other shops closer, which have a lot of the smokes I have been smoking while bowling and such, I just haven't gotten there yet. If you stop in there that would be great, if you weren't planning on it don't worry about it, i'm sure I'll get there sometime in the near future. Thank you for the offer, whhether you go or not.

My oldest son doesn't graduate from H.S. until the end of May. You're pretty fortunate to get out school so early.
