Glad to hear it. Seen some pretty rough reviews of it online but the cigar just looks beautiful and kept calling me. I almost pulled the trigger on this 5 pack last week for $30 but just found it for $25 and couldn't resist.

ETA: Scored a 5'er of Graycliff Turbo EL Super Toro and Can Nub 460 Habano on CB today for a steal. Pumped.

OK. So I've just read some stuff on Graycliffs being beetle prone and freaked out. I checked my entire stash, including 5 Graycliffs I bought on a trip to Nassau in December, which is sitting in a tupperdor while my desktop seasons (I have 48 sticks on hand and another 15 coming). One of the Graycliffs has a very tiny hole in it but it doesn't appear to be beetle-made from looking at pictures online. Despite being a very small hole without any tobacco dust, I do know these sticks likely got about 70* for a couple hours on the flight from Bahamas home and again on another flight (while they were in my carry-on). Either way, I've quarantined my smokes and all of the Graycliffs are being prepped for freezer treatment.

My problem is that I have Graycliff, Cain Nub, and LGC Obelisco 5'ers that will come in this week. One is from CI and the other two (including the Graycliffs) are from CBid. Should I put these through the freezer as well?

Not super concerned about losing my stash as it isn't very expensive, except I have a handful of WOAMs, xXx, and Anejos that I want to age for at least 6 months. I'm thinking to be extra cautious to just store those in a tupperdor within my humidor and a higher RH humidipak. Could any potential pests feed through a nice sealed tupperdor?
 
Went to the B&M on their first day open for the new year to pick up some sticks for a fellow CPer and myself and lucked out! They ended up getting more Don Carlos a la 13 Lanceros, but only a 5er left, so I got the box to boot! So snagged them up and 2 Nacimientos and 2 Keeper of the Flames. Into the humi to get some time on them...

I was in a local beer distributor which has a very nice humidor with a good selection of cigars. In the corner I noticed the Liga Privada #9 Tasting Sampler for $29. I now have 5, #9’s resting in my humidor. I keep thinking I should have bought more.
 
Just picked up a mazo of Gran Habano Vintage 2002 Robusto. Cost $34.99, Shipping $5.00, Smoke: Priceless. Best cigar for the price point, even if it was $10 it woukd still be worth the money. What stick would you recomend after reading this?

Great smoke Deon, I have some on the way to me, best bang for the buck IMHO.
 
A bit of this, a bit of that at the B & M today:

2 - Undercrown
1 - Illusione Epernay
1 - Oliva Special G
1 - Padron 2000 nat
1 - EP Carillo New Wave Conn
1 - WOAM
1 - Ashton Classic

Now, if I could pick up a box or two of 70 degree days I'd be all set!

Nice pick up... all good looking sticks. When we get some warmer days, we'll have to meet up for a cigar. CP is right up the I-87 from me.

You should have purchased more of them...
 
A fiver of Drew Estates Undercrown. Letting them rest a few days. Can't wait to try one.

Either they were marked wrong, or you just got a great deal on a great cigar. PM if he has more at $ 29.
