[Ford2112]

I got lucky and was in time for a sampler. Super stoked! Unfortunately I logged off and wasn't able to write down what was in it. I'm impatient. Anyone have that info? Thank you in advance.

I was also lucky enough to get (and receive today) the Christmas Sampler. I also forgot to jot down the contents and thank Skeng Don for the content. Was there more info on cigar vintage or are they all 2021?

 Christmas Sampler is a celebration of the best of 2021. 

I will have a dedicated thread up by the weekend for reviews

Is Christmas on the 25th again this year?

I've had 5 of them already ROTT. All have been excellent

I've been waiting but it's been really difficult! The RH in my tupperdor is up so I need to dry box them I think.

Change things up, have it on the 27th.

Is anyone else planning on smoking a cigar each day for the 12 days of Christmas? It's like an advent calendar for cigar smokers!

I like to start on the 26th of December and smoke a cigar each day for the 365 days of Christmas.  I'm much more festive that way 😁

[Ford2112]

I like your style!

So has anyone smoked some if their sampler sticks yet? I'm trying to get them stable for a few weeks and am dealing with new humidor woes.

had the Punch RE yesterday - Solid mid 90s cigar even young and I’m having the Monte 2 now.  Dive in! The water’s fine.

I may smoke that Harimau later!

The Harimau is really good! One of the best smokes I’ve had in months. Do it!!

Enjoyed the RASS from the Christmas Sampler this evening.  Wow!  I was amazed at the flavors.  I'm a big RA fan, and my MO is to age everything before enjoying.  I hate when a seemingly great one is just too green, ...but that was not the case with this cigar (at least in my experience tonight).  Subtly different from a set of 2014's I've been using as my benchmark for this cigar -- but this 2021 (assuming as I'm not aware of getting dates & box codes for this year's sampler) -- this is just great ROTT.  (I'm smoking it after just over a month's rest from it's flight here, and I usually allow 2-3 months).  

Great stuff!  (I might start smoking more things earlier!)

I smoked a couple from the sampler and felt they needed more rest so I am waiting it out. Glad to hear that RASS smoked good.
