One of today’s mail call. Sorry Aaron, not it, but pretty impressive. That was a box I got last month though.

That PSP looks like a snake that swallowed a big meal. Super swollen near the band!

i have them at 67-68%, they really shouldn't be swollen. could just be a lumpy specimen? has a few big veins. guess i'll toss this one in the dry box and see. 👍
 
I’m curious, why did “he” sell that partial box? Wouldn’t “he” smoke the whole box if “he” thought they were good? For give my uninformed or ignorant question.
It’s actually a good question and there is some risk involved with these type of things. I’d be very suspicious if it was someone I hadn’t dealt with before and the cigars were from late 1999, or 2000. People do try to offload cigars that are poor quality. Although I have never asked why this private collector is selling so many of his cigars, I have never received anything but properly aged and cared for cigars from him out of over a dozen purchases. There’s a little blind faith involved too.

Oh! Also, HE’D sell them for the money as his motivation! The vintage Cuban cigar market (compared to NC) is through the roof right now. Especially, during the COVID pandemic for some reason.
