1 - Don Pepin Garcia Cuban classic
1 - Rocky Patel Olde World Reserve
1 - Oliva Series G
1 - La Unica 500
1 - La Unica 300

Total Cost - $27

How did I do? If all goes well I'll be ordering my humidor soon and can regularly start trying all the cigars available to me to see what ones I like the most.
what cigar store did you go to? i'm in brentwood.

La Unica are a bundle smoke made at the Fuente factory. Very mild but not bland. I went through a few bundles of these in my early days.

Enjoy the DPG...I also enjoy his blue label. Check out the Oliva O & V series....they're tasty.

yeah, woody's is pretty good. did you happen to notice if they STILL had any anejos left?

i disagree about the best liquor store in tennessee - next time you come up, try going to nashville and visit frugal macdougal's liquor store (right on 8th ave, just south of downtown) and then hit uptown's for cigars.

I've heard about frugal but I heard you have to buy high gravity beers in 6 packs which is fail in my book.

If I feel up to it tomorrow I'll check out both but I really got to get a humidor set up before I get too many cigars
