I love ny

ambientboy · 06-16-2009, 02:09 PM

Every time I find myself in manhattan I can't help but pop in the Davidoff store to look around. So today I wandered to 54th and Madison to scope out the joint. All the reps were busy, which was fine with me so I strolled into the walk-in alone. There was a kindly old chap with a posh British accent who appeared to need some assistance. Naturally I helped out and made several recommendations.

The gentleman bought several I recommended and asked what I'd like for my troubles. I assured him I was happy to help and needed no return. But since he insisted I gratefully accepted a Millenium lancero and may I say, it is damn tasty. Good cigars always make for good temporary smoking buddies!

Another great example of how amazing the cigar community treats its own.

I was booked solid for this trip but my afternoon meeting was cancelled last minute! So naturally I went cigar perusing :d

The Davidoff on Madison is a good place. I've meet several interesting people hanging out there over the years
