    I still havent bought a box, i thought for months that i wanted it to be a box of 5Vegas AAA's but my tastes have changed a bit, and now im leaning towards a box of Punch London Club Maduro's being first box.... too many choices with too little cash!

  • Congrats! Cracking open your own full box of cigars never gets old. And having your wife encourage your purchase makes it even better. I still remember my wife buying me my first box--5 Vegas Classic--when I was first getting into the hobby. Hopefully yours is the first of many good ones!

    How are these. I was eyeing these and the rothschild at the BM the other day. One of the first cigars i ever bought was the pita natural.

    I have yet to buy a box as well. But the Tiante blues are on the top of the list along with a couple other. Once the financial restriction has been lifted of course.

    I bit on the same deal. (not my first box, though) I'm quite happy with the purchase. That lighter seems very nice so far, and I love the cigar. And Beatnic's right, you're in deep now!

    I understand all too well! I bought my first box this week and looking to buy another this weekend. The first was a box of MoW Side Project 52C's. Next will be a box of AF Don Carlos #3 or #4's.

    I got that same deal purely the forum talk of that cigar. This is the first box I have purchased without ever trying the stick.

    I've bought many boxes of cigars. It sure is comforting to read about new BOTLs getting their first cherry.

    Not me, you have done enough. As a matter of fact, do not make me hunt down your new address and just expedite the process by giving it to me. Or I will just have to hit your old house and hope it gets forwarded. Either way, something will be inbound in the near future!

    Cheeses! You just gave me the shudders! I tried that MOW side project 52C I thought it was like pepper on asphalt. An awful stick. I'd rather light the box and toss the cigars. There truly is no accounting for tastes.

    Cripes.

    I'm pretty sure my first ten boxes were all mazos. These recent c.com deals are unsurpassable. If I had any room at all I'd be gettin broker than I already am. I admire the pic you posted. Fine looking box, attractive lighter, and five delicious red dots. How can you go wrong?

    I am still recovering from meeting you guys at Smokin Joes. Then after I got a bunch of (good) new stuff to send out to you guys I still have an overflowing humidor! You guys killed me with great sticks.

    After I get your new addy I might think about sending you mine.
