Why, That cigar is too BIG, sir! Can you cut it in half for me?

[replicant_argent]

This reminded me of something... I just can't remember what it was... ;)

TEN inches x 48 RG and just think! You could smoke all of it, or just half!!!

[68TriShield]

Sorry Pete,they are on back order :rolleyes:

[Ultdrake]

It's a funny thing that could be tried -(P

[The Poet]

I saw these in their new catalog too. Hey, wasn't there some crappy Filipino cigar called Double Happiness not too long ago? I thought I'd ask, as you guys are experts on crappy cigars. :ss

[pitbulljimmy]

WTF?? Really?

[mithrilG60]

Reminds me of the Alec Bradley Maxx Ego, 9 1/4" by 50 rg.

[Powers]

:r

wow, just wow

[akumushi]

I've seen a dish called "Double Happiness" on the menu at a Chinese restaurant. This is an absolutely stupid gimmick, but hey, this is CI we're talking about here.

Yes, I believe the same factory as the original Fighting ****. :pu

[MajorCaptSilly]

I'd like to smoke one with you like that spaghetti scene in Lady & The Tramp. How do you light the middle?

You can get a Double Happiness at certain massage parlors, or so I hear... :r

Greatest idea ever, I hope Habanos SA is seeing this. Pure brilliance. If they weren't backordered I would be all over this like flies on poop.

[The Poet]

I must admit, I kind of like the artwork. How much would they charge me for a box, iffn they kept the stinkin' smokes?

[TheRiddick]

Yes, I believe the same factory as the original Fighting ****. :pu

Yep. And IIRC, CA even gave them decent ratings at the time. But that's not saying much, they also highly rated such gems as Dr. Sila...

[TheRiddick]

For those keeping track, this set contains 2 new Gurkhas that are not on the list of AJ Fernandez factory. Make it 3 if you include Double Happiness.

[VirtualSmitty]

The idea of smoking two gurkhas at once sounds divine.

[tedrodgerscpa]

I want!

Seriously.

That double happiness padilla achilles has me deathly curious. Add me on to the list of the box split.

Blend-schmend... you can light EITHER SIDE... blend-schmend....


Now, to get some XL five finger bags...

There's a "double happiness" on the menu at "Heaven is A Spa" massage parlor in hackensack. Only $49.00 before 5pm.

[acarr]

Oh dear god. :confused: Why?

Funny thing is that the only Monte A I had I cut in half and had two cigars-(P

Between this "double happiness" and those infamous Fighting . . . uh, Roosters . . . I don't much like the turn this thread is taking. :r

ha ha

[Blueface]

Pete, Gotta love the name they gave this cigar.

[BC-Axeman]

I say punch a hole in the middle and smoke both ends at the same time.

[neoflex]

I still can't believe it's back ordered. I'm hoping it's because there was only one box in existence and they accidentally ran it over with the fork-lift in the warehouse.

I dont think they're backordered, I think they havent arrived yet...

Says "Landing Feb 28"...

[Footbag]

I agree that if Habanos did this I'd be all over it. I could see one stick for each brand, varnished box.
I'm a little skeptical when it comes from CI. And I like CI.
I'm guessing all of those smokes are being rolled in the same factory?

Now thats what I'm talking about!!:tu

[sboyajian]

Believe it or not this was first concepted by Gene Argenese. While I'm not a big argenese guy, the idea is a good one.

You are getting 20 cigars. However, the way it's bundled is as 10 cigars. These reason this is done is because SCHIP taxes you PER cigar. At 40 cents per cigar, this saves you $4.00 per box.

[Don Fernando]

and he stole if from the Italian Garibaldi cigars.

I will get a box of these, they will make a nice conversation piece.

[sboyajian]

That is not only good to know, but also very unsurprising. :)

I think I'll wait for the Double Happiness Culebra!

Exactly - I used to work with an Italian and he mentioned that there are cigars in Italy that you cut in the middle and share with someone. This is the first thing I thought about when I saw these in the catalog.

[TonySmith]

Sorry Pete,they are on back order :rolleyes:

They don't come out until Feb 28th

You're crazy. ;)

I saw this same idea in a Bestcigarprices catalog (i think it was them) a few months after Schip came in effect and way before CI came up with this one. I think they were called Schipbusters. Its supposed to save us all on the taxes. They are taxed as one cigar but can be smoked as two, if needed.

$4? Wow!


Gene's ideas are only good in his own mind with his crappy cigars and stupid "club".

[Powers]

Now is the time to jump on these: they're on CI's Joe's Daily Deal! :r

[Bleez]

Today they're being sold in a Mazo of 10 for $29.99. That's not a bad price for "20" cigars.
