It's a box of southern edition mason Dixon
A opus x shark and Julius shark
2 taa 2014
And 2 tatuaje veracru no 2 that have not even been released yet. These are from the soft realese to a few retailers. I got lucky on vacation.
A 5er of CAO LX2 lanceros. Think I've only had 2 LX2's before, but I sure like em, and Steve @Old Smokey has me curious about lanceros
Got an Oliva 10 cigar sampler with the branded lighter, bought an x5 herfador, Smoking Monk IPA 5er, and a box of Melanio robustos. I'm done for a while...
Trent, I hope you enjoy the the lance. Just smoke them slower that a larger stick. Draw slow and easy and enjoy.Quote:

So a little while back, I posted that I was having my second Hammer + Sickle (Tradicion Serie) and I really liked it. I've been trending to more mild cigars right now (seems to go in cycles for me), so I decided to pick up a box. I was greeted with some of the most insane packaging I have ever seen for a cigar.
It started off simple enough, a nice outer box, with a magnetic closure. Pretty cool.

Upon opening the box, this is what you see:
A glass crystal box, nicely enveloped by some satin type soft material...

This box is nuts.

Very cool packaging.
I even got a free heavy crystal ashtray with the purchase:

All in all, a very cool purchasing experience. The first two of these I smoked previously I really liked, so looking forward to seeing how these are with some time on them (this Churchill recently got a 93 in Cigar Aficionado for what that's worth).
That's pretty sick. I read an article about packaging and this was one of the examples featured. Not for me, since I'm way more into just how much I like a cigar, but pretty damn cool. I don't care for packaging stuff, but I can see a huge collector market for that stuff.Quote:
