Cigars - what's in your humidor?

[Nantucket Red]

I've been checking out PuroExpress and am amazed by the prices -- less than half what I pay by the stick at my local. I'll be ordering a couple of boxes soon.

Before you order check what your local taxes are on smokes. You gonna get hit with full tax on anything that comes form Canary Isl.
It is TAx Free (off shore) zone and pays no taxes on anything pretty much.

I had to return a box once back to PuroExp. cause I was hit with 65% tax on the price.

My buddies and I run a website that covers cigars, libations, etc. and have TinderBox.com as one of our advertisers. I like to place my large orders through them since I get an automatic 10% discount, but it seems they don't carry the 3000 line.

Wow, I just stopped by my local TinderBox which does stock Padron 3000s unlike their website. The price for a box was astronomical compared to TNTcigars.com. Even with the 15% discount for buying full boxes at the store, it would have been $146 as opposed to $90 through TNTcigars.com

Any how, I went ahead and picked up my first 3000 and smoked it there. Very solid, it may very well be my next every every day smoke.

i've said it before and i'll say it again, the padron line (2000, 3000, ....) is one of the best values out there. they trump cigars double the price.

was the one you smoked today a maduro and natural wrapper?? i go back and forth on which i like more

Is that federal or state? I have had cigars shipped to ny and nj taxless

Was there some sort of limit on the number of cigars allowed?

Went with the natural today. Picked up a second to take home so I can do a proper review. It's definitely going to receive some praise.

Picked up a Romeo y Julieta Reserva Real corona last week on someone's recommendation. Never had one myself, but smells and feels pretty nice.

smoking a hoyo DC now, it's the best i've had in a while...guess the batch i have is finally getting out of its sick period.

Recent article in CA prompted me to pick up a box of Padilla Miami. These are amazing cigars, and will become my daily smoke. Fantastic.

This is more for bulk storage etc. Top Shelf

Just smoked a Padron 3000! Damn that thing was good. I looked online and it was too rich for my blood. Box of 26 for $105. Anyone know where I can get a 5-er? Or a box for cheaper?

www.cigarbid.com usually has some good prices.

anyone have an cigar-inspired license plates? One our cars has "MADURO" on the plate (yes, I have been offered serious cash for this one). Anything else interesting?

Heh I bought a 31l tupperdor cause my Adorini Habana is now full of cigars

I will buy this humidor at the end of the summer so all my cigars will fit in same cabinet.
