JLFIRST Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 I cannot wait until this gets to my place! I have been thinking greatly about my puts and I think that I've gotten some really nice ones for you all! Looking so forward, like a fat kid loves cake!

cfc1016 Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Double thermal insulation. Time to get professional with this bugger. No more cracked feet ? second pic is a p***express bubblebag, for scale. Should comfortably fit up to 200 cigars, in finger bags, thoroughly bubblewrapped, as the box comtinues to grow. Will definitely pamper the ~100 that will be in it when it leaves my possession. I’ll be sending this baby out in style. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prodigy Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 My trades have been approved. When I get off work I'll post pictures. For a newbie pass, there are a lot of high quality sticks in this pass. I don't think I have 10 sticks I could have traded to equal the Gran reserva lol.

cfc1016 Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 I hereby propose a declaration for the debate lf the community: For all his toil and effort (I have organized a few box passes myself) I think @wertman should receive a special reward. I offer for the debate of the community, the notion that that 2007 gran reserva lusitania should be set aside as a special thank you gift for him. I know this ain’t no democracy, but what do you guys/gals think? Whaddya say we show the man some love and appreciation?!? Besides... are any of you gonna be putting in anything that even REMOTELY compares to that stick? I know I’M not - and I’ve got a WHOPPER of a puts list lined up... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give everyone an equal shot at what I would call a once in a lifetime stick. Or send it to wertman, either way. I could pull it and send it to him directly so it doesn't risk any damage going through the pass. It already has some slight crumbling at the foot.

cfc1016 Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Either way, i think there should be a majority consensus. That is indeed, as you put it, a once in a lifetime stick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wertman Posted February 21, 2018 Author Share Posted February 21, 2018 A box of Lusitania GR boxes are retailing for 3000-3750 euros so that's 3600- 4600 dollars for 15 cigars. This cigar comes from the habanos festival so a full year before the origional release giving it even more special of a value. I would almost wager that it would be almost impossible to purchase except for those who attended the gala and did not smoke there cigars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would rather have 10 $35 sticks versus one $350 stick. But that's just meSent from my LG-H900 using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wertman Posted February 21, 2018 Author Share Posted February 21, 2018 @leemack912 I think your right about that. I would feel guilty even smoking it and could you even imagine being interupted. There really is so much to choose from here. Just a perfect way to try new cigars and see what you like. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that's just meSent from my LG-H900 using TapatalkI totally agree@leemack912. The only reason I'd like to have this stick is because I gifted the only one I've ever owned. That's what being a brother is all about and I know you'd agree. I've attached a picture of the tray it was in before gifting.
