Best cigar ever

The "Clos Vougeot" are figurados - Torpedo Gordo with a 54+ cepo for a 130 mm length, in individual boxes made for Peré Gérard, years ago. I'd imagine you might be able to find one if you were allowed in Vahé's cave, but I doubt that will ever happen. :)

Oh, that Clos Veugeot... I completely forgot about the one's in Gerard's cave. :D

I didn't even know there was a Gerard.

Or that he had a cave.



Btw, not to threadjack, and thanks for the info Matt, but who the f*** is that in your avatar? (I'm guessing this has been asked before.)
