Haunted Bookshop in an Abe Herbaugh bent brandy.

This is pretty sweet!

Aright! Good to see you Greg!

Boli CJ while prepping the contest drawing. Whenever I light up a Bolivar I think of @Kingantz and his "BOLIS!!!" war cry. Miss your reviews brother!

My apologies for being late with the drawing! Thanks everyone for sharing your memories, this is truly a special place. Ok, I have all of your names written out. And into the hat they go! Drum roll please .... And the winner is! Pugman! And wouldn't you know we have the same...

In the process of nubbing this Coloniales. Started with sweet cream and hay, and in the final third it's saltier than a sailor. Interesting stick

Switching gears and going with a Padron '64 Corona. My favorite stick when I want a good spicy kick. This is from our own @Keystone_Raider, thanks Jim! The box is half gone :D

BBF with coffee before setting to a bit of work on the laptop. Cheers!

So many good memories. I changed it to be any active member, I don't know why I set a year stipulation. That's what I get for writing the post at midnight ;) I'll close this up at the end of the weekend, draw the winner and will ship Monday :)

CP was the first cigar board I ever joined, back when I was soaking up knowledge like a noob sponge. I got a WOAM in the newbie sampler thread from @theorangeman and thanked him for the "Gran Reserva" cause that's what it said on the label I owe my passion for cigars to the lot of you. The...

First box purchase in a while, and one I haven't tried to boot. Seller's photo

Did a little adventuring this morning, brought this guy along for company

Oh yes, I'm in that club as well. Just the once, haha. Been slaying a bundle of Johnny O shorts of late. Hard to keep my hands off at 4 bucks a stick.

I send all my fakes to @wkoti :D

With CCs at least, the aroma at cold is a big indicator of whether it's in a sick period, flat, or its sweet spot. Don't ask me why, but it's what I've found to be consistent over the years.

Johnny O short at the beach, fishing with my son.

Haha! So good. But yes, we want to see that White Owl & scotch review!

Couldn't keep away from the Johnny O short, perfect size for a before dinner cigar and a flavor profile that delivers. Last night, a JUN '15 Trinidad Coloniales during poker, paired with a Ballast Point Grunion pale ale. A cigar to remember, not even a year old and it was all sweet cream...

Johnny O Short, strong cigar when young. The rest of these will mellow nicely over the coming year, it'll be hard to keep my hands off them. Reminiscient of Bolivar.
