bbguardsp Posted March 16, 2015 Posted March 16, 2015 Ive been pleasantly surprised over the last few years when I find that "forgotten" cigar that all but dissapeared from knowledge in my largest humidor. What are some cigars you have "discovered" throughout your smoking career that have surprised you and made you say "man why didnt i pick more of these up at the time"?
polarbear Posted March 16, 2015 Posted March 16, 2015 I lost half a box of Alec Bradley Family Reserve VR1s (NCs) from my first overseas order back in 2009 I found a seam of them a few months back and 6 years has done wonders for the blend. Its richer and more complex than I remember them being while fresh. I can still get them now but I don't really want to have to wait 6 years for them to open up when I could be using that humi space for CC's The last Diplo 5 I had was found mixed in with one of my older PLPC cabs (not sure how it got there) and it made me lament the fact I could've bought boxes of these on discount back when I first started smoking CCs but I was too busy chasing sub par boxes of Monte 5s at the time I really like it when I 'loose' cigars in my humidors, its like a little treasure hunt everytime I go humi diving. That's the main reason I don't keep spread sheets of everything I've got in stock. I like to dig through my fridges and find some lone box I bought years ago and buried
Popular Post stunod Posted March 16, 2015 Popular Post Posted March 16, 2015 I'm so screwed up, I go through my stock every few months. Nothing sneaks by me. No surprises sorry to say. 5
cabaiguan juan Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 I'm with polar bear. I love my singles drawer because its like cigar roulette every time I go into it. I have more NC's than CC's so mine was a Padron 26. I forgot which size.
Maplepie Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 Bolivar Simones. "Oh, there will be loads more... They won't ever sell out... I'm a genius..." And sure enough, 3 months later, everything I said was wrong. Luckily still riding on over a box! I think those Petit Unicos will see discontinuation soon enough. 1

They are far superior cigars imo.
Stogieninja Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 Nov '13 H Upmann No. 2's. I was gonna get some for my twins' birth month/year, then they disappeared!
dvickery Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 Not exactly "premium" cigars ... Box of 100 cohiba clubs ... Lost for a over decade in my 5packs cooler . Purchased in nov'03 found spring a year ago . Derrek
StingMeadery Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 I have a serious Behike deficiency in my Humidor at the moment... Lots of boxes went in last year and there's nothing left... "Behike Black Hole" syndrome Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Borgy Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 I'm trying to smoke all my N/C pulled all I had out of modest Humidor I couldn't loose a needle in it?
