Okay. I received the box today. There are a few casualties, but for the most part, the contents are in fine shape. The Oliveros Gran Reserva is pretty battered, and the MC Le Grand Delacroix has a bit of damage, but can probably be salvaged.

Not sure if it was originally included, but the Takes/Puts list and mailing info for those participating is not in the box. I've printed up some sheets to record Takes and Puts for the remaining stops on the pass. Also, I've placed any unprotected sticks into individual cigar baggies for protection. I added several dozen additional bags, so any later adds to the box can be protected, if not already wrapped in cellophane.

A few questions about previous puts;

There are two unbanded cigars; one maduro corona size, and one natural toro size. I assume these are the Pinar pre-embargo, and the Cohiba Corona Especial, but I'm not sure which is which, so I'll leave them unmarked. Neither of the cigars seem to have a Cuban triple cap, and to my knowledge Cohiba doesn't make a maduro corona, so it's a bit confusing. Somewhere, the wires are crossed.

The two Partagas Churchills that started the pass are gone. I assume they were removed due to damage on the first leg of the pass? Also, per the previous takes/puts posted, one of the RP Vintage 1992 should be remaining, but I can't locate it. Similarly, both of the Belmore Cameroon Torpedos put in by Hex should be gone, but there is still one in the box. No big deal....one missing/one extra.

My Takes:

Don Lino Africa Lancero
Gran Habano Corojo #5 (Toro)
Ancient Warrior Robusto
El Rey Del Mundo Toro

My Puts:

Alec Bradley Pryme #100R (Robusto)
CAO Italia Gondola (Torpedo)
Torano Exodus 1959 Gold Torpedo
La Gloria Cubana Toro

And a few extra Puts:

5 Vegas Gold Toro

Cockyhoskins.....please send me mailing info for Oblik, and I'll keep the box moving. Thanks for letting me take part.
