I think I am going to put together a herf for January in L.A. (although I really don't think I will be there)...lol :sign:
P.S. Anthony I have your lighter that left behind!
I had a great time with you guys - I am glad I made it - Thanks for all the great smokes :thumbs:
I'm ready to do again!
Hey guys,
Sorry to take so long to post pictures, but here they are.
It was a great night of herfing. As guys have already stated, it was a great blend of new guys as well as regulars of the NYC crowd. We started out the evening with a mellow smoke at the CigarInn lounge and then scooted through the brisk New York air to Merchants East. Once we got settled, cigars started flying hither and yon with many interesting sticks changing hands. Dave was the cigar madman of the evening as he brought several whole boxes of cigars to pass around! :0 I showed my appreciation by giving him his first experience with a Fuente OpusX. He really seemed to like it but it was perhaps a tad stronger than he was used to. A couple of sugar packets and discreet trip to the restroom and he was right back in the game. Oh, and Dave, do try to stay away from open flames next time, ok? :laugh:
I have to echo what everyone else has said so far. A finer bunch of guys I've yet to meet. There were so many great palates and such a depth of experience there that it was a privilege to talk with everyone.
My special thanks to Tigger for the absolutely amazing artifacts he passed on to me. You, sir, are a scholar and a genuine brother of the leaf.
My special advice to Will: You may think you don't have room for more storage because you live in a smaller space but one solution is to go with a high spouse-acceptance factor unit like this baby. Do your comparison shopping with the handy guide here. Throw a doily and a table lamp on top and voila! Room for boxes and singles.
It was great to meet my Cigar Draft co-administrator, Dan. Go ALPHA!
Joe, if you don't bring lumpia next time, I'm going to beat you on the head with a cigar from Steve's nose.
Sam, what a pleasure to finally meet you after all this time. If you're ever migrating systems in the Wilmington area, drop me a line.
Elliot, you are man of rare class and a dry wit that belies your sense of whimsy.
Vince, what can I say? I have never seen anyone smoke a Cohiba Siglo I (4" x 40rg) in about the same time as a Sancho Panza Sanchos (9.25" x 47rg) :0 :0 :0
Hey!!! in my defense the Sancho did slow me down quite a bit..... :blush:
