    Hello @dretti78 ,

    You're best bet is to contact cigars.com directly. email customer service or call. 

    Good Luck

    Thanks for the welcome. I was thinking about the reasons I got into this and I realized it's kind of in my blood. :D My Hispanic grandparents came to Tampa in the early 20th century to work in the cigar factories of Ybor City. My (non-Cuban) mom spent her summers in high school working in the tobacco barns of Connecticut. The biggest piece of art in my living room happens to be a painting by fight doctor Ferdie Pacheco of cigar factory workers. It's in my DNA. Now if I could get my older brothers into the leaf. 

    Give them time, they'll come around

    But don't give them a melanio...too harsh to start.  Give them a G Camaroon instead!  Welcome to the forum @BadSneakers! Hope you stick around,

    Another delightful newb here. My name is Liz and I have no money or time so I decided to pick up a hobby that requires both. I'm a very wise person. So far my favorite stick would be the Oliva V Melanio that I had recently. Smoked it sitting outside in an ice storm (there's that wisdom again) and it was probably the most serene and relaxed I've ever been sitting outside in an ice storm. 10/10 perfect smoke for watching cars slide down the hill. I'm just getting started so I'm sure my favorites will change week to week because I'm fickle and can't make up my mind about anything. Nice to meet you guys.

    Are you into sneakers by chance? If so.....welcome!
