Bit by the Habanos bug.

Savor the Stick · 07-10-2012, 04:06 PM

I cracked open my last box of Sancho Panza Double Maduro and figured I would replace it in the Vinotemp....so off to the website to purchasing another.
Got all set to hit confirm and said to myself for a few dollars more I can have a box of "Por Larranaga-Panetelas. So I cancelled and went and bought a box of PL's.
With an exception of a few NC cigars, I am really enjoying the CC's more then the NC.

Just wanted to say Thanks to many BOTL that have fanned the flames of my love for those cigars from the ISOM; you know who you are.

why dont you hand me your credit card and save yourself while you can

ApexAZ · 07-10-2012, 04:17 PM

I'm flat broke. It's both a good and a bad thing. The DBall BTT couldn't have come at a better (or worse) time for me because I simply am unable to fall to the dark side, no matter how bad I want to. In a few months though, that should all change.

massphatness · 07-10-2012, 04:29 PM

You starting down the CC slope, are you, Kevin?

Karma can be a b!tch at times, brother.

kelmac07 · 07-10-2012, 04:30 PM

More maduros for me.

timj219 · 07-10-2012, 04:35 PM

This is hilarious because I just clicked away from a NC purchase for the same reason - I'm going to save up a few more bucks and go for a box from the dark side - trinidad reyes and a couple three packs of something. I blame DBall. I was perfectly happy with my NCs before he showed up at my place and twisted my brain with his illicit goods.

DBall · 07-10-2012, 04:38 PM

Why is my name all over this thread, people?!

Muahahahahahaha!

Not just in this thread...seems that Dan is a very bad influence.

big pete · 07-10-2012, 04:58 PM

I know how you feel. Going to start clearing out some NCs to fund some more CCs. Heck, they're cheaper than the NC sticks I like

I fell down the slope long ago. But Thank God I could not afford cigars then.
In your case Vinny it was not karma, I was just paying off a kindness.

So leave me alone!

Hey Kevin! Where have you been? I was expecting to see you at SoCal! When are we herfin' again!!

Ismith75 · 07-10-2012, 08:02 PM

Interesting it's hitting you NOW considering that Boli you sent me a while back is one of the best smokes I've ever had!

Enjoy the new (more expensive, dangerous and rewarding) slope!

Glad it was such a hit with you. That was from the warehouse closure from several years ago. It was '98 CE. I've exactly 3 of those left.
No I meaning that I actually stopped a NC purchase and went on to purchase a box of CCs. 1st time that happened.
It's gonna be a very low decline of a slope...Thank God the money is just not there to indulge.

Yeah but what a way to go!

Not possible I don't have the disposable income our "little buddy" has.

That is a joke, unless you are talking about Ken!
I have to save for months to buy anything.

By joke you might mean I have the funds to buy, but lack the ability to because of what is known as "the wife!"

Enjoy your slide K! I am just starting to dabble in the CC world myself and am loving it so far! I just don't need anything pre-1990 like Shane does!

Although, I hear if I ever do try some aged CC's it will be hard to smoke anything any better!

Have fun with it brother K!
