    They had a pretty nice selection of stuff I hadn’t seen before at Weston, even had some Vegafinas.
    The fella told me that some chinese holding company bought Montecristo & Romeo:Julietta out so they are really going to downsize there selection of those at that shop. He said they are having a hard time getting them shipped in & that’s why most shops don’t stock the Vegafinas also.

    The 1875 are good cigars, that’s the only one I recall having.

    Nice view. I suppose Iowa didn't want to block it with trees or mountains, huh? :p

    He has a lot of good videos. Hopefully, a lot of younger fellas watch his stuff. Even as an oler guy, I find useful life info in his videos.

    This one should be interesting, it’s the first one I can definitely smells like a cow pie out of the cellophane.

    I really enjoyed this one, it had some obvious chocolate notes, a bit of spice & a mildly sweet finish. No cow pie flavor so it was all good :thumbs:

    My sister in law bought me these cigarillos for me in Germany. They definitely have a distinct aroma, I can’t quite place it.
