Not an everyday smoker here, so it's the right size.

Personally, I like 10’s. Smaller boxes sometimes help me play coolidor Jenga. I also wind up giving some away. Doesn’t hurt $$ wise as much. 😂

Or the immortal Fonsie-one

More like a beautiful zombie. With those Spanish '14s turning up regularly there's no need for new stock. Smoking one now and it's glorious

A very Hoyo weekend  

[Wfriar]

Mille Fleurs and a NC custom roll from a cigar shop/‘bodega’ in Ontario.  Excited to try both.

Stocking up for winter. Du Depute.

Never had the Hoyo de San Juans....I'm curious if I will taste blending difference compared with the epicure no.1....or if their differences will be due only to the larger vitola.

Haven't had too many San Juans, but the Rio Seco are 100% a different blend than the epi 1 and 2.

lovely work that man!

Curious, anybody seen a retailer ship cigars this way? Obviously, it’s normal to see the boxes wrapped, but I’ve never seen this done. Seems like a lot of work and I don’t get the reason.

Thanks. They went into the freezer for precaution as one was from Cuba from an online vendor as were both non plus.

Yeah I've seen this before. It helps protect the cigars from getting sand into them on Mexican beaches. Works best on unreleased or future limited or special regional editions of Cohibas but should work on Sancho Panzas too.

Picked up the only box of Diplomatico Coleccion Privada II in Madrid (OEG ABR 22) and came home to find a box of  RyJ Petit Churchills (GEL FEB 22) and two boxes of Partagas Series D No. 4 (TRS FBR 22) waiting for me. All look good and smell great…

I think retailers are getting creative on trying to reduce damage to the cigars in transit, especially with smaller stock to replace if they are damaged. The less the cigars can move, the less they can get damaged. I honestly find this to be a pretty interesting way to do it. All for protecting my cigars in transit for sure--lots of retailers have a long way to go to reach the service and protection level of our host. 

Does seem like it'd be kind of a pain to unpack though.

Beautyfull fresh Cab. 

 

[Lamboinee]

For some reason I thought these were half robustos..... I suppose I'll enjoy the petite Coronas just as much. 

[Chucko8]

Thanks 24:24
