Early present from my wife... Going to leave it sealed and intact for a few years then crack the box and see how they’ve aged. Will pick up a couple singles next time I’m at the lounge to see what they are like fresh so I can compare them when I finally open the box in a few years.
Also grabbed these two to ship to a few buddies that sent money for me to grab and ship them out of state from a FB group I’m part of. There are many bundles left as I found more when I was in the walk in, so if anyone wants some let me know and I can grab and ship like I’m doing for these two bundles.

I just got home after 3 months in Turkey. I was excited to get back to my cigars because I did not pack enough for my trip and I’ve been smoking my pipes there with an occasional Cuban bought in a local shop. While there I “occasionally” made a purchase and sent it to my mother’s address for her to bring to my place for me. The following is what I came home to.....
EPC Dark Rituals toros a few Ave Maria’s to replenish my stock Armada’s More Fernandez goodies Macanudo Inspirado Whites from a suggestion from the beard Espinosa Cumfortably Numb, HTC Connie’s, AB Black Market ‘the Con’, and AB Family Blend ‘The Lineage’ Ave Maria Immaculata & Argentum Nub Nuance Fall Havest for my GF to try, an AVO single, and some Foundry Chillin Moose A few Gurkha’s that I actually enjoy after a long nap (the Centurian and Symphony), and Ive been wondering about the Chairman’s Select so I grabbed a few to try. I don’t know how the Rogue got in the mix, but I’ll give them a try also.
I also picked up Ed up a few lighters, cutters, punches, and various accessories, along with some boveda’s and other humidification devices to renew my stock.
Oh, and there will be a post in the pipe category as well 😳

Guys, you’ll have to excuse me. My emotions are a bit garbled at the moment. I can’t claim surprise because Rodney had posted my name along with a couple others a couple days ago on the ‘Outgoing’ thread. I was surprised then, but today it’s more a mix of thankfulness, humility, brotherhood, with just a bit of l u s t thrown in.
Yep. Just being honest. I’m l u s t I n g for one of the great sticks he sent me for some reason. I’m gonna go light one up right after I finish this post.
Thank you, Rod, for the terrific batch of goodness you sent my way. I’m kinda overwhelmed by the kindness and generosity. And the thoughtfulness is kinda a bit over the top. Sending sticks that are already aged is wonderful.
Here’s what he sent:
There’s a PSD4 and a 6, The Hoyo’s are Epicure #2’s, and the Behike El Laguito 52. The PSD’s are from 2014, the Hoyo’s are from 2013, and the Behike is from 2016. Can you believe the goodness shown here??
Since I have more Hoyo’s than the others, I’m gonna go torch one up right now. I’ll post more in the ‘What are you smoking this afternoon?’ thread later.
Many thanks again, Mr. Miller, sir. Don’t forget, I now have your address......
Glad he brightened your day Marty, way to go Hot Rod

I like them a lot. A co workers wife runs a non profit in Nicaragua with Karen Berger. Just for that I liked her, after trying her cigars, I thought they were good. Have learned that after a nap of a couple months they are even better. I plan to keep some for a nice long sleep and see how they do. Karen while remarried and moving on with life is the widow of KiKi Berger co owner of Cuban Crafters. Great Cigar store with in house rollers and home brand.

Yeah, I always liked some of the Don KiKis so I wondered how Karen was doing with her own blends.
