That's fine with me. What size? I'm thinking Gran Corona Maduro 46 x 6

If we go with that size -

$32.50 / 3 = 10.83 + shipping $4.60 = $15.43

Two of us will get 8 cigars and one lucky guy will get 9. You two can fight for the 9th.
If ya'll would rather have another size, just me know.

Please let me know how they are. Those are my favorite smokes. I would have jumped on if I seen it sooner.

**guado** · 10-04-2007, 10:58 AM

works for me.

**Maduro Man** · 10-04-2007, 12:00 PM

$15.43, Im in...I know my place, since I'm the New B I'll take the 8 and give up the 9th. Let me know if you want me to PM you my Mailing info.

TNT alts are decent smokes. I really like the Joya De Nicaragua Antano alts(very powerful) and the Aroura Preferidois alts(very smooth cameroons)

Hey Guado...Did you get yours Yet? If ya did what did ya think?!

**guado** · 10-21-2007, 08:19 AM

Not yet. Should be monday or tuesday. Then I will let them sit for a week or two. They get hot in transit and hot and dry only equals non tasty cigars.

I will let you know then what I think.

**Bassfever** · 10-22-2007, 03:27 PM

Chris. Thank you so much! I cant wait to try these. I hope they are close. I will smoke them daily. I owe ya!

Ok, I'm smoking my second one of these now. It's a really good smoke. As far as comparable to the Anniversary ... well I haven't had one in, i think, 5 - 6 months so I can't really tell ya. But I really do enjoy this cigar and will order a bundle all for myself so you guys can't get your grubby little hands all over em.

I was worried about contruction, they seemed to be a little on the soft side when I got em in, but I've experienced no burn problems. Just a really good medium bodied smoke. I would definately recommend trying some.

You other guys post what you thought about them whenever you get around to smoking one.
