PSD4 Posted May 15, 2022 Share Posted May 15, 2022 Hello FOH! I live just outside of Nashville and have been smoking cigars for some time, dabbling in CCs for the past 10 or so years. I am happy to join this community of which I have been a casual observer for some time but just recently signed up (and placed an order for a few 24:24 boxes for good measure!). I have posted a time or two without introducing myself, my apologies for that. I'm happy to be here! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nevrknow Posted May 15, 2022 Share Posted May 15, 2022 Growing is an understatement. Our real estate purchases 9 years ago are being offered 5 times what we paid. We’re selling and moving further out. 👍🏻 Even Smyrna has gone stupid. Murfreesboro is off the charts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moved here at a good time right before the housing market went bonkers, it's hard to afford anything worthwhile in Rutherford Co. anymore...

RASS is one of my fav CCs too and I wish I have a RASS 50 cab in my stash 😃. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually haven't had one before (I recently acquired that box and want to let them sit for a few months before I try one out) but I have read great things about them and I love a full-bodied cigar. If I like it as much as I think I will a 50 cab may be in my 1-2 year plan - along with a bigger storage setup! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RASS is one of the CCs that are getting better and better as they're being aged. I really like the fruit bomb flavor of RASS 😃. I'm currently keeping CCs in two tupperdors and one of them is box storage exclusive. I also have Monte 1 box from our host and I can tell Monte 1 is a pure CC delight if you're a big fan of long CCs like me 😄. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Monte #2 is one of my favorites, the H Upmann Connie A is another. I need to branch out with the bigger vitolas but it's hard these days with the price hikes! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Connie A is one of my fav CCs all the time and it tastes really good even after 30 days of resting period only. Wish I have a box of Connie A in my CC collection as well. I agree that price hike makes difficult to get bigger vitolas. Korean B&Ms will have a even higher price spike soon too and I believe Korean CC price will be same as HK in near future (Lusi 25 Dress Box and Siglo III box at local Habanos Specialist retailer were already at $1000+ few years ago).
