What are some good surprises you have received when opening up the package of your latest Habanos order? The other day I ordered a few 5 packs and was told by the seller that they were all from 2010, well, the Monte #4s, and Siglo Is were, but the Siglo IIs were from 5/05! That was a nice...

Well Baba (Bill) sent me a humidor for just the shipping, but he included a lot of great smokes! The pics have all of my collection in it, but many of them are from Baba!

What have you tried that made you think 'Wow - where has this been hiding?'. Was it something given to you by a fellow botl, or just something you picked up? ---------------- Mine would be the Camacho 10 Year Anniversary Series. I won a 5er in Stogie's 'show us your Camacho' contest. I...

So, last night 8:00 rolls around. Wife is putting kids to bed, I've caught up on my marking, and I know a friend of mine is bach'ing it. Perfect recipe for a gar get together. I pack a Cusano 18 Double Conneticut robusto that I got as part of a sampler. I've been dying to try this gar, it...

So I've been traveling a lot lately (well, a lot for me) and have been virtually absent. I've managed to be present enough for a couple of short Skype herfs, though, and to let a couple folks know that I was offered a good job. After another weekend of traveling, I went to campus all day for...

I'm sure that you are looking here because of that moped thing in the title so here's is what I want to know. Everyone has a sleeper cigar, that cigar that you found that no one else really talks about but you know is real tasty and think others would like. Then there is the surprises, those...

We're almost halfway through the season and boy has it been wild so far. I was just doing some surfing and here are some thing almost no one predicted going into the fall. N.C. State is in charge of the ACC Atlantic division and the coastal division is Georgia Tech's to lose. Florida State is...
