    Good evening everyone!  EPC NW with a RRG&C.  After 20 days, I finally got a box from CI.  And they got it wrong!!!  The incompetence at CI is just beyond belief. 
    By any chance, did they send two boxes instead of one?
    No.  They sent the 5 cigars from the Whack-a-Deal, but not the 10 cigars from the Jam deal! What a bunch of morons!  Evening Ron.  Hope you had a good time Sunday.  The other BOTL were all busy ogling Leo's new 2017 Geezer Glide.  First time he brought it to Flossie's. 
    We had a very nice time, wish we could have stayed longer.
    There was some really nice looking scooters there.  Good company, coldbeers, even a good sandwich to go with it.  We will be back
    Glad to hear that.

    Yes indeed,  They still haven't televised any games here yet. 
    Do you have MLBN? That's where I'm getting the games.

    Down here, the early games are on MLBN only. Later in the month when the regulars start getting in the line up ESPN starts broadcasting some games.

    I'm thinking a Warped Flor Del Valle that I got from the @90+_Irishman 10,000 post  pass later with some spirits.

    Never had one, but I've heard that they are very good.  First Warped not rolled on Calle Ocho in Miami, nice Nicaraguan puro.  Let us know what you think of it.  Maybe a little review?

    Last night after dinner Earl and I headed out to the Man Patio, fired up the heater, and I lit up the Warped Flor Del Valle, from the @90+_Irishman 10,000 post pass, paired with The Balvenie 12 year Doublewood that @jarubla gifted me.  The Flor Del Valle is a Nicaragua Puro using AGANORSA Corolo and Criollo tobaccos in partnership with Casa Fernandez.  It starts out as a real heater with strong black pepper notes which gradually diminush as the cigar smokes down.   The tobacco has a real smooth and rich flavor, this is the type of cigar you risk burning your fingers on as you try and smoke it down to the smallest possible nub, the cigar remained tasty throughout without any burn problems, draw issues, or bitterness at the end. The Balvenie complimented the cigar nicely, such a great Scotch.

    Glad you enjoyed it so much Chris, I absolutely love this cigar and am a big fan of much of what Warped does. That Balvennie is fantastic too, glad you had such a grand time overall!

    I got a box of the Don Reynaldo and wasn't impressed. Good solid cigar, but at $10 a POP, I don't know. I did hear that they age very well and will make me happy in the end. I sent a few out to others to try, hope they rest them.
