The Habano and Oscuro offering more typical flavors/aromas. Yada yada yada....If SB still has Jolly Walleye's I'd grab some. You will not be disappointed, and if you are I'll gladly buy them from you.

Thanks Matt. The Walleye sounds right up my alley; I'm going to take a look at SB now. Corojo may be an option for me as well.

Went with a VR Don Alejandro and a H Upmann Sir Winston this weekend.....both '14 or '15 I think and great smokes. They kinda make me sad every time I smoke one though because I know I won't be buying anymore. Don't think DA's are around anymore and I can't afford Sir Winnies these days lol.

I know exactly what you are feeling. Several years ago I, through my own fault, lost all of my old stock that I had been saving, in some cases, for over a decade. Stuff that I'll never see again.

I had to start back over from scratch. I'm my collection more manageable, but still I've managed to collect a few extra tasty, no longer produced sticks.

It is sometimes a really hard decision to punch one of those knowing that it'll be the last time I get to taste it.

Welcome back! I'd forgotten about these until about a year ago when I snagged some on the Devil Site. Good smokes.

Good to "see" you both, Scotty and Ray!

LFD TAA 50th Golden Salomone..... really really mild.

Thank you, James and Tom! It has been far too long.

And yes, you're right, still solid smokes. Apparently (checks calendar) 7 years in deep storage hasn't hurt them.

Haven't smoked an 858 in quite a while. But in all the years I can't remember getting a bad one.

Not always the case with sticks that cost 2-3 times as much.

P.S. Ajay has the pictures.

Smoked the "standard" 858 SG tonight.....noticeably better than the Rosado SG 858 in my opinion. I'm thinking I need to buy a box of these again.
