I had been waiting for Kevin to finally get the 50/50s in...grabbed a handful of those as well (haven't torched one yet). Seems like these Viajes are damn good sticks and not getting a lot of press. Now if they would make a maduro...MMMMMMMMM!!! :tu

Hey Walt, I didn't know you were a member here. Nice pick ups sir. I haven't had any of of those Padron's, but I did have one of the LFD Salomons on Sunday. I hate to say it, but I wasn't blown away by the LFD. It wasn't bad, but I wouldn't have a second. Hopefully they hit your tastes better than they did mine.

[Goldie]

I've heard good things about those Nica Libres. I want to find a single or two to try, and one to sit on. I have read some reviews that people like them more than Padron.

[SouthernSmoke]

the devil site has a special with the nica libres currently. I think its something like 10 for $22.50.


no picks, but I grabbed a 5er of one of my favorite AJ Fernadez sticks .... Padilla Habano

[Savor the Stick]

La Herencia Cubana Oscuro Fuerte

$1 for the extra 6 pack upgrade! :)

These are really good!--ROTT they are a little fresh and need some more Humi time.

agreed, it's mold, not plume. i would take them back ASAP. if they try telling you it's plume then i don't think i would keep shopping there.

[neoflex]

Yeah, if they try to pull that crap tell them to smoke one on you and let them tell you later in the day how their feeling. Seriously though, if they refuse to refund your money I would snap close-up pics and send it to Pete Johnson and let him at least see how his product is being sold. If they order from him direct I bet they will get a phone call letting them know what he thinks of their so called plume, but with the amount of coin you just dropped there they should have no problem keeping you happy.

[pnoon]

At first I thought... hmm that's weird, never seen LR in foil wrapped before. To be honest with you, not sure from the picture if that's plume or mold. ;s if I offended you but looks weird to me.

:r
I had a similar thought, Huy. My first reaction was that they looked like those NC ERDMs that are wrapped in tissue paper.

Plume? It looks more like a mold culture that has a cigar in it. :D

I would most certainly be looking for replacements or refund.

I though they were the CC Fonseca's with the paper they wrap them in

[Chris.]

If it wipes off easily it is mold. It does look like way to much to be plume though...

back now!

Knowing they can use the Plume Gimmick rather than pull them off the shelf and lose money on the inventory. I would love to find these sticks in a local and have them try the whole Plume spiel. That would make for a fun afternoon.:D

They deep fry them first, then coat them with powder sugar. Kind of like a cigar funnel cake.

Another purchase I made tonight at the CAO Liberty event at Tampa Humidor:

http://www.cigarasylum.com/vb/picture.php?albumid=488&pictureid=3597

The hat the shirt came with the box along with 10% off and a five pack sampler (I smoked most of the sample though) :).

With my 10% buyer’s club discount, this wasn't a painful one. :tu

[elderboy02]

Nice purchase!

[issues]

Nice purchase!

Thanks and with all the discounts it came out to $5.20 a stick with a free fiver!

These babies are stronger than I remember!!!

[Goldie]

The only LX2 that I have tried was a bit of a let down I hate to say. It had such a tight draw I could hardly take a pull on it. I should revisit one, as I think I just picked up a dud.

Heck of a score though, $5.20 apiece with some swag and freebies, not a bad deal my friend.

[whodeeni]

Hey Brothers, Just wanted to update you and let you know that I went back.
Above the counter they have a no refund/no return policy. The wife brought
that up, and the husband stated that he didn't know me and that i possibly
could have done something to the cigar, and he wouldn't be comfortable putting it back in his humidor and reselling them.

There were other unbanded cigars that had the same moldy look to them, and they both swore up and down that mold is blue or green. NOT WHITE!!! (Go Figure Right):rolleyes:

So his offer in compromise was to "Split it and give me a refund of 25.00"
I paid 55 and some change and half would have been 27.50 but I just said
Fugh It!:r

I explained to him that I had over 1000.00 worth of boxes (of cigars) sitting out in my truck and that I wasn't some petty NEWBIE smoker, but i opted to just part ways and never go back.

He gave me a beer, and a punch maduro rothschild to try and win me over as
a remaining customer, but it's not going down....

So the cookie crumbles... You win some, you lose some!:td

Hey, you went back there and did what you should have done, which was to return those cigars and get your refund. Although you didn't get your refund, letting them know that mold is not okay to sell to customers, was the main thing. Good job, I'm sure other stores would love to have you as their customers.

[Goldie]

That is definitely disappointing to hear. Someone earlier made the comment of taking a picture and forwarding it along to Pete Johnson to show what condition his product is being sold in. It might not be a bad idea.

Edit to add: Yeah what Huy said.

[maverickdrinker]

I would definately recommend sending a picture of the cigars to Pete and informing him of the store that sold them to you. There is no way a cigar manufacturer would like to have their products sold in such a manner. Bad for business and has reputational risk as well.

Sorry to hear that they didn't treat you well. Should warn others not to frequent their establishment, seeing the way that they store cigars and treat their customers.

Good Luck.

:tpd: I am pissed off just reading this. Hopefully he will lose his Tatuaje account. What a POS owner. I would tell every single person that you know to avoid him at all costs. He will not be in business long if he is a jerk to all his customers like that.

What is the name of the B&M? I want to make sure that I don't go to his store if I ever get to ATL.

[Salvelinus]

Sorry to hear they didn't give you a full refund. I wouldn't have even taken the $25 after he said he didn't know what you (the untrustworthy customer) might have done to his cigars when you left. Let every smoker you know never to go back to that place.

[Chris.]

That's bullshit. Send Pete Johnson an email...

Here's his facebook page if you dont have it already.

that is unfortunate, however someone who is willing to sell smokes in that condition is probably not going to have the best customer service

[darkninja67]

That is just nuts a B&M or anyone would actually sell sticks in that condition.

[duckmanco]

That is total nonsense, and just a sh*tty way of doing business. I would totally send the pictures to Tatuaje and make them aware of it.

Excel, as you may be aware from the issue I had with another B&M, we can spread the word and make a difference. Since this is Atlanta we have the C4 Club as a network to a lot of BOTL in the area.

Please share the info with everyone on the B&M and with your permission I will do the same. I'm familiar with the shop you purchased these at and have heard other stories about them.

Sorry about the way this was handled, we've got some excellent B&M's in the area but a couple that don't operate at the same standards.

I've also created a listing for them on CigarFriendly.us, if you get the time please post a comment there on the store http://cigarfriendly.us/view.asp?ID=610.

I love the "Perla." It is my favorite. That is, of the ones I have had. Haven't had that one though, so I might have to check it out.

Holy Crap, Where did you find a full box of Franks?

[RevSmoke]

Just a few boxes and a bundle picked up over last weekend off of Wades. :)

Wow, that's an incredible haul. That'd be my cigar budget for the year!

I didn't think any of those were commercially available, that they were sold out everywhere. Great find.

Right place at the right time, i.e. being on my computer when the ad went up on Wades site last weekend.

[Vegan702]

There is a box of Dracs on Wades site right now also from a great BOTL.

[Sauer Grapes]

[maverickdrinker]

Keeps giving the "server busy" crap. :mad:

[Sauer Grapes]

me too. I blame all of you!

[Vegan702]

You all are trying to get on the site at the same time! lol.

[Sauer Grapes]

Not a bad price. Wonder if the guy is legit? Anyway, I'll let kelmac get them.

[kelmac07]

Not bad at all...although I am not interested in the Dracs. I was looking for some Blacks. :tu

[Vegan702]

He is definitely legit...lol

Long time member on BOTL.

You just missed 15 blacks the other day. They were selling 5 for $125. (edit - actually 6 sticks as 1 stick was a black robusto) He sold them quick!

These are nowhere near as good as James' HAUL OF THE YEAR, but I'm kinda proud of myself! ;)

I can't figure out how to get the camera to take pictures that don't suck without the flash but sooner or later I'll figure it out.

Unfortunately, I can't smoke anything as I've been sick since Friday. :(

Hopefully I'll start feeling better tomorrow and will be back to my old self by the weekend smoking it up!
