Thanks to a fellow CP'er - HerfinBigDog, I received my smokes and shirt yesterday. All in all, very nice for $16 delivered.

Don't know how many of you are aware of the J.C. Newman Cigar Connoisseurs Club.

Here are some details if you are interested.

It is a one time fee of $16.00 ($18.00 less the $2.00 promotion code - see below)

For your $16.00 fee you get:
  • Exclusive Cuesta-Rey Centro Fino Club Sampler - pictured below.It is a 4 cigar sampler valued at $26.95.
  • Cuesta-Rey Centro Fino Golf Shirt (They used to send a graphic t-shirt )
  • Coupons for Free Cigars and Logo Merchandise
  • A Year's Subscription to the J.C. Newman Wrapper Newsletter
  • Monthly E-mail with Promotion and Product Updates
According to their site, an unstated portion of your payment is a donation to the Cigar Family Charitable Foundation. [quote name='"Cuesta-Rey's Site"']This non-profit organization, which is funded by cigar lovers like our Club Members, has raised over $3,000,000 to date (and growing) to build schools, a health clinic, and a complete complex in the Dominican Republic.[/quote]

Just FYI - J.C. Newman makes the Cuesta-Rey, Cuesta-Rey Centenario, Diamond Crown, La Unica and La Unica Cameroon brands.

Note: Knock 2 bucks off of the $18.00 price by using the Promotion Code of CA06
(That is a zero not the letter 'O') when you register on the web site.

Here is an image of the smokes I received yesterday via UPS:

It took 20 days from order till delivery.

Good luck...
 
Wow this sounds like a really nice deal. :) Is the Newsletter anything like a magazine or is it just a couple of pages? I really like Cuesta Ray's and they alone are worth the 16 bucks. So this will definately get my support. THanks for the link! :thumbs:

I also got in on this deal and recieved my stuff about a month ago. Having never smoked a cuesta rey before that. I have smoked 3 of the 4 and have greatly enjoyed all of them. The shirt was also a little nicer then I was expecting to recieve, I will probablly actually wear it.

Well the "Newsletter" is like a "Newsletter", just a few glossy pages with color images. Haven't received any of the coupons yet, so no idea what they might be.

Hey Tim,

You may not have known it at the time because you had not received your package yet, but I wore the Cuesta-Rey golf shirt to the herf on Saturday. I'm wearing it in the picture that was taken. :D

It is a nice shirt! :thumbs:

I believe the "newsletter" is called "The Wrapper". the tinderbox gets them so I always used to read theres. It tells you about plans for new releases and upcoming events. Definatly worth the price you're getting for a shirt and 4 cigars. ;)
 
My wife signed me up for this back in January. When I received my sampler the Captiva had mold on it. I emailed them to let them know, and never heard back from them. About two weeks later I received a whole new Centro Fino Sampler. I thought that was pretty cool of them, I was just hoping for a new Captiva.
 
I have been a member of the Conn Club for over 5 years, it is a great deal for short money. I don't know if they still provide a credit type card, but I still have mine from years ago.

You mean like a membership card? I don't think I received one this time, but I have in the past. I still have my 2004-2005 card in my wallet.
 
Ordered this deal, and it took just over 2 weeks to get the merchandise. As has been said, the smokes are well worth the $16.00, but the shirt is a quality shirt as well.
 
Just signed up. I know I used to really liek Cuesta-Rey. haven't had one in a long time. I think they'd be too mild for me nowadays. Is the sungrown stronger/fuller-bodied?

In the very least, they are a pretty wrapper and band to hand to moochers, and hey--I need a new golf-shirt.
 
The sungrowns are really nice smokelaw, I think you'll like them.

Just so you all know, it's per year, not just a one time fee. Now on the bright side, every year when you rejoin, you will get free smokes and a shirt (some years it's a nice t-shirt).

Now, I need to go sign up for my 4th (or 5th) year! Thanks for the reminder!
