I thought it was about time I shared my holiday purchases with you all. Being the only cigar smoker in the group i was able to take advantage of their allowances, but i now have the usual problem that i have run out of storage space.:rock:
The first picture is of the Boxes i purchased, i tried hard to find this years releases but I'm told they will on the shelves in December if your really lucky.
I did find a P1 jar and the noella jar
The second picture are some custom rolled from 3 different rollers.
We have cigars from Reyaldo at the Hotel Conde de Villneuva, Miranda at the Melia Havana Hotel and 50 from Enrique Mons.
The Reynaldo cigars are in a cabinet hidden behind a picture at the back of the shop.
Enrique is a lovely guy with a fabulous shop and so so patient and helpful.
The two ladies who run the Melia shop are also worth a mention, providing me with a free sample of Miranda's "behike" for me to try while i wandered around the humidor. They also phoned roun checking the availability of this years releases and the demonstration of how to check the draw on a cigar was very Hugh Grant / Devine Brown http://cig.ar.com/images/smilies/icon_e_surprised.gif. (So pleased SWMBO was at the bar !!)
So it was a great holiday that was rounded off by SWMBO accepting my marriage proposal http://cig.ar.com/images/smilies/icon_cool.gif
