I haven't posted in here for quite some time and thought that it would be nice to share some vintage cigars that just came in. I like to collect and smoke as many different vitolas de salida as possib

I don’t normally post my purchases but, aside from the Nudies bundles I ordered, the Lanceros will probably be the last cigars I receive for a while. The other two are highlights from my last few orde

I have a box with similar dark wrappers, good smokes but different than any other Trinidad I’ve ever had

I find that to be the case with most EL’s..  To me, they tend to taste more like each other than their individual Marcas.  

I am pretty sure I bought these when they first came out, and smoked them young.  All of the EL’s were good smokes, but none have struck me as particularly memorable.  When I saw that one of my vendors had them, I was really interested to see how 10 years of age has changed them.  

(I’m much better at buying aged cigars then I am at aging them.  The cigars I have aged myself are usually the cigars I didn’t like very much.)

Found these at the Peace Bridge crossing on Friday; went in to grab a few singles for the long drive :rolleyes: ... Have no idea if it was a rare sighting or not. Anyone score something special at any of these crossings?

I’ve had and have LAR SEP 12 boxes of these and they have been great. Nice pick up.

Damn, nice find. How was the rest of their Cuban inventory?

In the "high end" cabinet they had 3 boxes of BRC all 2016, 1 box of PSD4, CoRo, and Medio Siglo.

Saw a bunch of Party Shorts, Siglo II tubos, RyJ Tubos, HUP Corona Major Tubos, one box of Monte 4s. Thats about all I can remember.

Lusi's we're "Handpicked clearance" too, such a bargain.

You must be happy on the condition and price!  I have fallen out of favor on Lusi's towards the other DC's, but I can see from that picture why you'd want to share it.

I have no clue what any of the cigars you posted are, minutes the punch EL. Lol

Having seen neither of these cigars in person, I can’t tell wether the Punch EL’s are extreme jawbreakers, or if that’s the tiniest Cohiba ever. I assume that’s the infamous Cohiba short?

From our host - MEG SEP 16 - Not the most beautiful wrappers. Here’s hoping they taste good after a nap!

My guess is they’ll be great. I’ve had some really nice smokes with slightly dry/rough looking wrappers recently. Hopefully they work out for you. I’ve very rarely met a Connie A I don’t like...
