Apparently, I was on a tear for anything Punch last night.
Luckily I was still alert enough to avoid the Gurkha garbage.

Southern draw Jacobs Latter and desert rose.
Box of stolen thrown phantom queen.. These were shipped and the box was 1mm too big and they shook around during shipping. The entire lot they shipped basically arrived at stores broken. They will be replacing all of them but they were told to sell what they can and discount them. My store got 12 boxes and was able to save 4 boxes and even those have damage. They are a GREAT stick!!!! Also they are made in the Rojas factory

Obviously you're not a golfer.
Nice! I have the GOFs, never heard of the AJ. Will you give a mini review when you get to it?

Got 5 packs of caldwell samplers because they were on freefall and I had to. Went to the local shop and went straight back to the "1 per customer" shelf and loaded. My buddy traded me his opus so I ended up with 2. Cant wait till spring/summer.

It’s not the years, honey. It’s the mileage.
My most recent grabs, from about a week ago. JL2’s, because I dread the day I run out.
And some Punch Punch with just a little age:

Not quite, thankfully.

These are from a few weeks ago, so not my “most recent purchase,” but I’ll include them anyway. This is one of the more interesting NC smokes I’ve found lately. 
As many of you already know, I’m sure, these were created as a partnership between Carillo and Oliva, using Oliva tobacco leaf, to my understanding. I have to admit it ::::: please don’t throw things at me :::::: but I’m not a big fan of either Carillo or Oliva lines. My buddies got hold of some of these Allegiance, and wouldn’t leave me alone until I tried them. Glad I did. Like I said, one of the better new NC smokes I’ve had lately. Apparently, going forward, Carillo will partner with other factories besides Oliva for future iterations of the blend. So the next year’s production may not quite be the same. Figured I’d get these while I could, just so I didn’t regret it later.

Finally pulled the trigger.
I have been getting these Ashton symmetry prisms from this box ever since 2021. It's a slow shop but wow these are great. Happy to add the box to my shelves.
Box is dated june 2015.
It's also the first cigar I'd ever bought twice at that time. Great stuff.

Found myself in an Illusione mood. Some Fd’A, Haut 10, and Epernay.
