Just checked with my local Secreto and they told me they sold out right of way. Never even herd of this cigar to be honest.

Look what you did!
I had to visit the store
Picked these up: https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...c2750859d4.jpg
Had to go to the North Dallas location. Plano said they didn’t have. But the Dallas location said Plano gets everything first. They also have the old, aged stuff. [emoji2369]
This part is OK, it is the other Tagalongs that created an issue.
Regius Exclusivo USA and Black, at prices I couldn’t pass up. Was told probably 5-6+ year old stock.
https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...19cd3c6265.jpg
They had some Warped left they were trying to get rid of. Why doesn’t Warped do well in these shops?
I finished up their stock and cleared a spot on their shelf.
Maestro del Tiempo
Again, they thought probably from 2016-17? Could be bad, could be good. Nice prices.

Plus a couple El Septimo of Geneva that came recommended.
Michelangelo and Raphael.
Made in Costa Rica, but little tobacco actually comes from Costa Rica, imported from elsewhere. Undisclosed blends.
It was explained to me that Nicaragua has a 5 year clause that tobacco has to be grown there for 5 years to be called “Nicaraguan” . Costa Rica doesn’t have this rule. The guy told me the old original AJF Pinolero was actually Cuban tobacco rolled in Nicaragua that had been held there for 5 years. IDK. Could be BS. Can’t get them anymore anyway.
They had some AF DC Eye of the Bull at $14.40 each. Closest I’ve seen to MSRP. Limit of 2. It was stated they smoke the same as other DC, but paying more due to scarcity for a smaller cigar. Not for me.

I’ve seen an auction where the “buy it now” price was $3600

I'm sure @Old Smokey can probably pick that up at his shop for a grand less than that !
Tony, it appears my local may be closing up shop as they haven’t received a cigar shipment in several months. It’s a freaking outhouse in their humidor with 70% of the boxes on the shelf empty. It’s not a good look.
I will say that is a beautiful box of cigars, but unless they accept Monopoly money, way to rich for this old hillbilly. :)
Yes, it is sad to see. The original owner passed away about 20 years ago, then his wife stepped up and his son began getting involved in the business. Mom passed away a couple of years ago and it was solely the sons turn. He is a nice guy, but has struggled with addiction problems for several years. Meth and alcohol don’t make a good business model.
I may have a couple of those in that Toymakers box from over the years, but very very rarely did they get anything from the Toy shop. But I quit buying more cigars basically 5 years ago. I have more than plenty to choose from.
These came in just before Noon Thursday.
May well have been ordered by Smokin Monkey, He either forgot ordering them or it's a test to see if I can be trusted t keep My paws off His smokes.
After a little more consideration I'm sure S.M. would not have forgotten ordering these, nor would He think that I'd smoke any of His Cigars without asking Him if if I could do.
Heck maybe I'm the one that ordered these, odd since they're not a size or brand I like. And I expected Smokin Monkey would've pulled them out of the Mailbox before I'd even know they were there.
Yeah that would mean I was hoping He'd not notice the better Cigars (white Owls) that arrived a week or so earlier and I'd quickly hidden away.
AW Hell,now I am feeling guilty for not sharing those better quality Cigars with My dear friend Smokin Monkey.May as well give the White Owls to S.M. Then smoke the SAn Cristobals Myself.

Quote:
This is the second annual release of the LCA Reserva series. Each year, the cigar is made entirely of a single year’s crop of Cuban-seed corojo grown on Christian Eiroa’s farms in Honduras. The vintage year refers to the year the cigar was rolled, while the tobacco is from the crop three years earlier i.e. the crop for Vintage 2022 is from the 2019 season. The LCA Reserva series allows you to taste how different years’ tobacco crops change the smoking experience. Despite having the exact same blend, Vintage 2022 is certainly a different experience from Vintage 2021. “
