So what is the consensus on finger Cigar bags. Are the worth it? I know over the years I have had people send me things in them, but I never went out of my way to get any. Do you prefer them? If so why, and where is your preferred source to get them.

I like them for cigars that have no cello, but don't go out of my way to get them. The biggest issue for me has been finding a place where to buy them not by the pallet.

I like them for shipping non-cello sticks too. Provides the protection of the cello. Not too much moving around to destroy the wrapper.
As far as buying, I remember guys doing splits because if I remember right, they sell the in bundles of 50 or 100. They're not expensive but you'll have bags for quite a while unless you're bombing every day.

I like them and use them quite a bit. Great for the non-cello sticks and they take up alot of room in the flat rate so usually no extra packing is needed to keep them from bouncing around. The thing I don't like is they just aren't quite tall enough to squeeze in a small Boveda with them. I bought them from cigarbags.com but yes they do come by the 100 and I think I'm on my second order of 5 finger bags. Cost isn't bad, but the shipping sucks.

I've found that if you put the cigars in an oversized zip-lock bag, get all the air out, roll them up together tightly, and then tape them in place, not much can happen to them--even cigars with no cello. And I always have enough shipping materials leftover from my CigarBid orders that I don't really ever have to buy supplies. The finger bags probably offer more protection, but I've never had any issues.

There will always be a little movement and that's all it takes for the sand paper effect to destroy your sticks. I've had done this to great success though when I can sandwich cello sticks in between non cello sticks, and it also gives you an incentive ti include body guards.

I use whatever is handy, to protect the cigars. Usually I use a few extra cigars.

I would not go out of your way to but if you get my list sometime I would not be sad to find a few in there.

Well I was offering to send some to Tombstone, but now that you mention it SoCal gunner will need to be restocked after he sends some out

Oh, you're already on my list and now you try to instigate further violence?

Clearly I spoke too soon - and sent Tombstone Aaron's SB package and sent Aaron Tombstone's that had the bags in it.
So feel free as an expert to correct my novice mistake.

Well, the first I ever saw of one was when received in a package from WNYTONY. To me it connoted the thoughtful care taken not only in the selection but in its delivery as well. So I like 'em.
And besides that, they make great little "floaties" for your smokes (should you ever take them swimming). [emoji474]

This one smoked nicely, with hints of pepper and nutmeg.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190319/5c15cc31e561a9f506372ea7a3395de2.jpg

The Immaculata is a good cigar. Never smoked that size.
