    Cigar Fed. COTM


    Should I pull the trigger on this? Id most likely just cancel after Dec. shipment since im already in a couple COTM clubs, but the xmas theme, price, extra stick, and free shipping have me really thinking about it. Any insight would be appreciated!

    I’ve been a subscriber to these for a few years. For a one-time, no harm done. Just like a 5’er sampler.

    On an ongoing basis; The price is pretty good for quality cigars. I don’t recall a bad cigar. Some have been excellent, most others are good to very good.

    The issue is, many of cigars are limited release. If you like them, there is a good chance you’ll never see them again. Or they are something unknown you haven’t or won’t see anywhere else.
    There are usually 1-2 of the cigars that are well known or have been introductions to some upcoming popular cigars. Rojas Street Tacos, Los Tejanos, Stolen Throne, Roma Craft, are a few examples. I’ve received a handful of DTT cigars in the past including Todas Las Dias, Sin Compromiso, Sobremesa, Mi Quierda, etc.

    I will say, I don’t think the selection is quite as good as it used to be, but still one of the best COTM out there. The one @AlanS gets is up there, too.

    Cigar Fed. COTM

    Smoke Inn charges $29 a month and regularly send $50- $60 worth of cigars. Can’t go wrong with either one I suppose

    You made a great point here- I definitely dont love the idea of falling in love with a cigar and know that I cant get any more. Plus I always wait awhile to smoke online stuff so im sure theyd be sold out by the time I get to it. Dont get me wrong I love getting my hands on LEs but this almost seems like a form a torture to me haha. Thanks for the input!

    Kevin, think of it like a one night stand that wears a bag over her head but has an attractive body. After the evening is over she removes the bag to reveal her facial beauty and then disappears into the night.

    If you were single and didn't mingle, would your regret it?

    In the above example, 3 of the 5 you may not see again, or maybe as a 2023 LE./SE (Heck, they could be leftover 2022’s rebranded).

    The Rojas is pretty good. The other Stolen Thrones have been very good. Both of thESE you will probably continue to see around.

    6 cigars, 3 of which are a fun holiday theme; for $40 with free shipping. All in my experience have the likelihood of being good to very good. I think pull the trigger. Cancel in January if you don’t like them. The bonus 6th is a ‘boutique second’. You won’t know what it is. I buy about 20 or so of these every month or so. Haven’t had one yet that was bad.
    BTW, the Small Batch COTM are unavailable, but you can get on a waiting list.

    Was eyeing this exact one myself. Waiting to see what Santa brings. Been wanting to explore CFed and all their many offerings, and this month's checks off many boxes for me at a good price.
