What are the single or fiver of cigars you bought in past two years that surprised you and then ended up buying a box or two or three?

Regarding a cigar, the pipe and the open road, go forward without hurry, learn the essence of things through frequent experiences, taking advantage of every occasion.

    I don't buy boxes but the Montecristo Espada in both Oscuro and Natural Habano are excellent. Plasencia tobacco and Nica Puro.

    Both offerings from Artesano Del Tobacco made by AJ Fernandez Viva La Vida and El Pulpo were surprisingly good. I've purchased boxes of both as well as shared them for others to try.

    Those were great Frank, thanks for sharing. I thought both were box worthy

    Nobody’s perfect my man. Even John picked a Camacho as his first choice out of his allotment. I specifically remember him saying that was a 💩 cigar 😂😂 Besides, you should be proud and happy you’re helping me convert to Tats 😉

    But you ranked it 4th in the blind cigar contest????

    You didn’t submit a tramp stamp did you? It was a different surrogate, wasn’t it?

    So hurtful and mean. You have hurt the only one feeling I own.
