    I am not liking the Drew Estate as much as I did the Maduro Sweet I bought at Weston. The burning has slowed down substantially since the breeze petered out. My assistant has called it a night I guess.

    I bet those Monte’s will be nice.

    R&J 1875 is in my next to try pile. Maybe tomorrow night. I am going to polish off the last Tatiana Cherry Cigarillo tonight & probably have a La Flor Dominica Mojito as the storms roll in.

    A month in the humidor has made a world of difference on the Tatiana’s.

    Apparently I wasn’t patient enough, I watched them cycle thru several times & never saw them fall below $26.00 so when I saw them they hit $25.29 I bagged some.

    Was just talking with my cousin about the Tatianas. I’m not big into flavored stuff, but a decent sweet flavored one wouldn’t be bad.

    Try the Java by Drew Estate, the Tabaks or the Isla del Sol’s.

    Got a bid in for some Tabaks. I love me some coffee so thinking I’d enjoy one from what you say JimBear :salute:

    Just reading some description on them. Might be next on the purchase list. Looks like they have a handful of different blends.

    The red eye version I mentioned earlier stores well. At least mine did.

    Got a few now two days ago. Thanks for the heads up.

    never had positive experience with that… Always bids go higher than I want to pay.

    Don't think much of power hour, either. Kinda like MMAO on the mother ship. :handshake:


    One thing about cbid, just be patient and you'll get a deal.

    CB can be sketchy too, I was the lone bidder on a cigar cutter & received the notice I had been outbid, the minimum for me to bid again was like $1 more than my previous bid but no other bidders were listed. :fart:

    Then one of these after I got the ends painted & boards stacked.
