I recently bought an old box of Vegueros Especiales no 1. Can anyone help me with the boxcode, from what year is it?

Nice looking haul!

So it looks like these were released in 1997, and subsequently discontinued in 2010. That box code is from March 1997. VERY NICE. Have you smoked one yet?

This sampler was the perfect mix of stuff I know I love, and things like Cohiba and Punch that I want to continue to give a fair crack of the whip.  

Prior to this point I've never been able to order from FOH, due to bank technicalities, gladly they've been resolved, and now i'm free to frolic. 

Great packaging, swift, and all cigars in perfect condition.   Hats off to the FOH team.

 

 

Not a purchase,.....but a lovely gift from the good people at FOH,

Cheers guys, too kind  

Is the August 31 sampler or September 14?

Just in, some 2013 Siglo IVs with some interesting re-packaging.  Not sure if it was done by the LCDH or the distributor.  Because of the extra insert, I am assuming it is the distributor.

I've noticed this a lot in the last few months. Just more attempts at either getting rid of excess stock and pricing reflects as "vintage"/"aged" stock, or they have been stockpiling and waiting for prices to increase.

Very nice.

Were the letters on top always lighter than the letters on the bottom, or did they fade?  Im wondering if it is OK to leave them outside when I’m not using them or of the paint will fade from the elements.

The lettering looks lighter because of the flash.  The lettering on the top is the same color black  as the bottom.

Here's another pic of it.

That sounds awesome, haven’t tried them yet. A Botl here in Sweden sold his collection as he’s giving up smoking cigars all together. I got 5 other boxes besides this one. This box was the least thrilling, or that’s what I thougt. Got two full boxes of fundies. This is one with the old band.

Oh.  OK.  I’m still debating leaving it outside.  It would be easier than taking it inside every day, as I have been doing.

Wasnt able to control myself and bought a bit more. Still 1 other box from 14 to come. 

PL was a full box, but a few people in our cigar club wanted to try straight away ?

I'm assuming by the picture that these came from Australia...

Yeah, looks so, something wrong with posting pics sometime?

[Baccy]

Not my latest purchase. I've had them for quiet a while but I'm just now getting around to photographing these babies...

Sorry, I'm not sure.

A box of Romeo y Julieta from 06. 

 

A box of LGC no. 3 from 2002. There is a distinct smell of intense, almost pungent, honey if that makes sense?

Lovely lovely stuff, Hats off!

Girlfriend just got back from a cruise. She managed to pick these up for me in Sint Maarten at Cigar Emporium. I'm liking the age on these!

PSP Picadores UER NOV 17. These have just about the most intense aroma at cold I’ve ever got from a box of cigars. Wow. Looks like they need some sleep! All the same, I can’t resist taking a few out to try early on...

Wowza. I don't think I have the willpower NOT to light one of those up ROTT. Congrats
