Hookmakers tales from the Humidor

[mcdee]

Yep can confirm having been there in September. Nothing old at all, wiped of all RE and LE (I found a couple of stragglers and that’s it). A few years back and it was a treasure trove.

Henrik did it!

That's a tragic situation. Andorra was the time capsule of the world: lots of old and discontinued stuff just sitting there waiting for us to come along. I was there about 4 years ago and there was still loads of gems 😳😳

Yes, everything Andorra RE is gone now. When I was there 2 years ago they still stockpiled VR and JL Malecón to the ceiling, but they’re all gone now.
Cohiba Sig l-lV, Lanceros, Esplendidos and trini Fundadores always also filled the shelves by the master case, but not a single to be found.

Oh wow. They look interesting. Had no idea these existed. Have you had one before?

Only had one, Mike shared one while visiting Paris a couple of years back😎

Does that mean they’ve finally cleared through the rest of their previous Andorran REs then? They might actually start increasing in value now!
What a hardship to be forced into buying Fuente!

Just cancelled my trip!

Not a bad disappointment... That's a tidy haul

No doubt you'll be back for revenge when stocks are back to a more normal level. Watch out cigar sellers of Andorra... Henrik has you in his sights.

🤣🤣🤣

Fresh back in from skiing in Andorra.
For the first time ever, I had a whole tightrope of mules with me to carry the load and had planned once and for all to fill up my Cohiba stock, but alas - dried out and empty shelves everywhere.
I had thought Andorra had prevailed in the drought of Cuban cigars, but I was thoroughly mistaken, - not to say disappointed.

So I had to bring home some odds and ends - some boxes were sniffed out from back behind the counter, and I was lucky to be there when a small shipment of the new QDO Andorra Ambassadeur came in. But as you can see, I also had to bring a box of Fuente with me to fill all saddle bags.

DONT go to Andorra right now, unless you want JL piedra, small Montecristo or RYJ 😎

Ooooh, nice haul.
