Puros Y Vino Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 Greetings all. The Cuban roller, Mr Jorge Lopez Leal will be in town May 31 and June 1 at Thomas Hinds. He's there from Noon to 6PM. I was thinking we could pay him a visit, pick up some fresh, custom rolls and then head out to a cigar friendly bar. I was planning on going Wed June 1 as Tuesdays do not work for me. Anyone else interested in going? Please reply to this thread and vote on the spot you'd like to go to. Either Remy's or The Pilot. Both places have large rooftop patios. I plan on leaving my office around 4:45PM to get there for 5PM. Cheers, Frank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, if Tuesday works for most people, by all means head out then. I will still pass by on Wed to get some fresh rolls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ckearns Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 Wednesday the 1st should work for me and I'm indifferent between the two bars. He's also doing other dates at La Casa if anyone's interested but can't make the Thomas Hinds events.

nick17 Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 sounds like a good time I am coming back from Niagara falls that day so I don't know if I will be able to make it but maybe I will be able to make one of the days a LCDH as well I don't know how you guys feel about a 20 year old joining you. I felt out of place at LCDH this weekend as me and my friends where the youngest people there for some time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Puros Y Vino Posted May 30, 2011 Author Share Posted May 30, 2011 Crap. It looks like Wednesday might be out for me. I might be able to swing by Tuesday. Can we get a roll call of who is interesting in going and when? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmac77 Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 I am going to try and make it but only a 50/50 chance at the moment. Tuesday may be better depends on my schedule which changes daily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I went last year the pricing was something like this. Coronas $15 Robustos $20 Pyramides $25. Not cheap, but unique. FWIW, the robustos were the size of Mag 50's. But that was a different roller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riazp Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 prices do seem reasonable, those are the prices you would pay for a mc no2 or edmundo. hopefully the lcdh in montreal will have a guest roller over in the summertime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think during the F1 pre race festivities, the LCDH sets up an outdoor lounge with leather couches and chairs and brings in a roller. I'm not 100% but the lady who was with the roller in Toronto last year said one of their stops was the Montreal F1 race. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ckearns Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 Frank, I'm on the fence now too because I'm out of the office tomorrow. I hate to pull the chute but it'll be tough to double back to the city. What's our headcount looking like? Btw, the Monsdales are available if you see Mr. Lopez at La Casa. I stopped by last Thursday on my lunch and picked some up. $20 per stick.

Puros Y Vino Posted May 31, 2011 Author Share Posted May 31, 2011 Headcount doesn't look good. I had to bail on Wednesday though I could stay up to 6PM but then I'd have to leave right after. Today, I should be OK to go get some customs and maybe have a quick smoke. I'm hoping to hear from more people before the end of day. If not, we all go on our own and leave it at that. We'll herf some other time. So, what are the specs on a "monsdale"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmac77 Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 I am going to try to make it there for about 5:00 ish today. after which a cold beverage at Remy's would be in order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
