Of course!
I'm there darn-near every Tuesday.
Speaking of that...and Visions...there's a dirty rumor that they're going to do a tasting specifically for Vison here soon. $15 for one of each vitola....just like they did with the Sopranos.

you think the brazilias age well? i've had a box that's been in my humi for about a year- year and a half, and either my tastes are changing, or they aren't as good as i remember them being.
i can say this definitively on the brazilias. with a year or two on them they become legendary. when the cello turns yellow these fellows are unbelievable.
can't spreak to the sopranos yet. aging a box of associates now.

I was dangerously close to buying one of these a few weeks ago, picked up an MX2 instead. I guess what detered me was how fancy the whole package was. I've had plenty of inexpensive CAO smokes which were really fantastic. What makes this one so special?

I've never had a Vision. It looks like too much hype for the price, IMHO.
I go with the Brazilias!

I had one, gifted to me by Dave, owner of TW here, at the Jazzfest. Thought it was pretty good, but not especially remarkable. Was about my fifth cigar of the day, though, so it wasn't really a fair tasting. My taste buds were pretty much toast by then.

Amazing amount of smoke I thought.
