Never figured I'd shop in a place and walk out with a bag like this apposed to a paper or plastic bag... And no you can't see what it hauled out... It's a secret
A year and a half ago, I did some web work for a fellow beemerista who lives in Florida. Our deal was, he would hunt up a cigar shop in Ybor City, get some local rolled I could never score here, that would be payment. He never got to Ybor; I never got paid. Periodically do more work for him; always the same story. Fast forward a year, there's an annual chromehead beemer tech day gathers beside Lake Conesus at an old farm, located the far corner of New York. Best way to describe the nature of this gathering, this year we bought T-shirts say "Bikes, Booze, Food". Booze should be listed first. And last. When this weekend rolls round, our host's wife goes to visit her mother in law, while his father drives up from Florida to attend. So I am riding back from a strenuous long weekend, it's 34 degrees and rain for the first 300 miles. By the time I hit the lowlands this side of Williamsport, I am worn out. I set my sights on a cigar bar where they serve espresso, in Lancaster. Drop in there for caffeine before I hit the twisty roads thru Amish country. Too tired to think, I pick the first cigar on the far left middle shelf. Don Benigno petite robusto. Turns out to be one helluva gem. Expensive, tiny, and very hard to find anywhere. Fast forward to last month, I'm doing more web work for the guy. Same story. I suggest he just order me a box of Don Benigno on line. Yesterday, they came:
Fired one up last night. Yegawd. An hour and a quarter of bliss.
I really enjoyed the one I smoked last night. I am guessing it may have been from this box? Thank you Davis for sending it. Now to find more!

Thanks to webmost and you, my curiosity just got the best of me. I ordered a couple of 2-packs of the robusto petits.

That is a lot to be proud of.
Money can't buy happiness, but it can buy cigars and that's close enough.
Happy day
At any given time the urge to sing "In The Jungle" is just a whim away... A whim away... A whim away...
