Holts has been out of the Perdomo Habano Connecticut, and the other shop I get Chubbys Maduro from has been out of stock. I've almost resorted to smoking something different.

Speaking of which, I burned an Oliva serie G last friday afternoon sitting in traffic. Tiny little smoke, 44x4.5 i'd say. Great flavor too.

Jim, I had the Baby G as well and LOVED it. It came in a sampler I got free when I got the melanio box. Still have a G Churchill to go but the little guy really impressed, I think I posted it here a few weeks ago when I had it.

Who's down for a smoke meet again? Maybe if it's nice and we can find a place, to do it outside somewhere.

I also had a Perdomo Small Batch and it was really great. I don't remember if it was the Connecticut or the Sun Grown, but had more Sun Grown flavors for sure. Had a Padron 64 with my father-in-law-to-be and really enjoyed that, though it had an overly loose draw for my liking, especially during the first third it had almost no resistance. This is the 64 I got a month or so back which was over-humidified. I think storing it in the depths of my humidor for a while really did wonders to bring it back to life.

Got this assortment as well
Aging Room Small Batch M356 Motivo Grand Corona (6 x 46)
AVO XO Maestoso (7 x 48)
Blanco Nine Lancero (7 x 38)
Herrera Esteli Toro Especial (6 x 52)
My Father La Antiguedad Toro (5.6×55)
New World by AJ Fernandez Gobernador Toro (6 1/2 x 55)
Oliva Serie V Melanio Churchill (7 x 50)
Padron 1964 Anniversary Imperial Nat. (6 x 54)
PDR A. Flores Gran Reserva Corojo 2006 Grand Toro (6 x 54)
Rocky Patel Royale Toro (6 1/2 x 54)

Alex, that looks like a solid sampler pack. Picked up from CI i'm guessing?

Jay, Where are they located? The shop said they may have them this weekend, so I might take a ride out to get them (they're in DE)

Youtuber CigarObsession does some great video reviews and started putting together samplers. Go to www.cigarobsession.com and you can see the different ones he has. This particular one came from Atlantic Cigar

CO is a twat. If you dont agree with him, your comments on YT get deleted, and you'll get booted from his FB group.
