TBird55 Posted February 10, 2019 Posted February 10, 2019 Opened the box, it felt a little spongy, lifted the cedar and low and behold........Anyone ever had the same thing happen? First time for me...box of La Punta's... 2
Derboesekoenig Posted February 10, 2019 Posted February 10, 2019 Have never seen that. On another note....those look beautiful. Been smoking these for breakfast! It's like having pancakes, but without the calories 1

Fugu Posted February 10, 2019 Posted February 10, 2019 what's wrong? Cigar missing or cardboard missing?

They're very different from each other. Sweet + Savory = perfect You'll thank me later. And once every 10 days, throw a wild card in there. 1

golf4less Posted February 10, 2019 Posted February 10, 2019 A cigar a day and before you know it, a box to sell out the back door. 1
rcarlson Posted February 10, 2019 Posted February 10, 2019 Did you want Rob's 24:24 description or a full box? 1 1
havanaclub Posted February 10, 2019 Posted February 10, 2019 So a cigar is missing and has a piece of cardboard or cedar block? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

(dumb question, I know, but stranger things have happened....) Cardboard was there. Everything was perfect except for missing one cigar. The only time I have ever seen this, after hundreds of boxes. 1 1

Ritch Posted February 11, 2019 Posted February 11, 2019 How many of us actually count the cigars in a cab? Would be easy for it to be one short...
Lotusguy Posted February 12, 2019 Posted February 12, 2019 How many of us actually count the cigars in a cab? Would be easy for it to be one short...Come to think of it, I never once counted.
wineguy Posted February 12, 2019 Posted February 12, 2019 I could have those and not know it, I don't always check the second row. Will start.
TBird55 Posted February 12, 2019 Author Posted February 12, 2019 I doubt this happens often, like I say probably 500 boxes and first time. 46 minutes ago, wineguy said: I could have those and not know it, I don't always check the second row. Will start.
