Ha know, the latest CI email about Ruinations as low as $49/box is such bullshit. They show a full box of robustos and they wind up being $79 which is still a good deal with a $25 gift card included but the $49 cigars are the War Horse box of 10. I'm not interested in either but it's a bad promo
Agreed!  I hate that kind of shit too.  The other one that sucks is the 2fer where they show 40 cigars but you're only getting 20.
Yeah just annoying, like I'm going to pull the trigger on something after I realize the false advertising. Seems like a silly approach, bush league

Tattoos' just up 5/$20 if interested.  I am not myself.
Why?
Cause I don't think they. Are all that good after trying one earlier this week.  Not terrible at all but there are better cigars for $4 and under IMHO.
Like the Cuarentas up now.
Cuarentas  are pretty good and a definite $3 value.
I saw them up earlier and considered buying them.  I've loved the ones I've smoked.  Which is more than I can say about the La Flor Dominicana 1994.  I had heard great things and was really looking forward to it.  Heard it could have been a contender for Aficionados top 25 but I don't see it.  Nice coffee flavors but a bit one note for me.  Also the wrapper had a bit of a "paste" mouth feel I get from Ecuadorian wrappers - Don't actually know what the wrapper was.  Maybe I'll look it up after dinner.  Ok, really gone now.
Apparently a San Andres Mexican wrapper.  So again... What the fuck do I know?
You were close!   ::)
Isn't Ecuador in Mexico?

I never would have made the connection if it hadn't been brought up.  Never think of him as having that mentality.

Not a big fan of Maduro really, but really like the BH family.  A very predictable smoke that delivers.  The 10 Mads I bought are resting in the humi, but Oy said the one he had was good.
