So here it is… a little fundraising effort for the show.
These are some cigars that I found, most of which have been aging for at least a couple of years.
These may not be familiar super-duper-premium names, but they are all handmade, long-filled premiums. They have all been continuously stored in good condition.
Since each lot is already packaged, if you order two lots, you will get two packages, etc.
If you have any questions, ask.
For some of the names that all of you might not be familiar with, I gave a little info at the bottom about some of those brands.
In the interest of full disclosure: I did purchase some of these cigars at retail, and some of the cigars were samples sent to me free of charge. The samples that were sent to me all came before my show even started production, so there is no conflict of interest.
I did include retail price estimates for the lesser known cigars along with links for a few (for citation), and I think that the lots are priced very aggressively.
All proceeds from this sale will go directly for show-related expenses: cigars for future review, internet hosting, studio equipment, etc.
Thanks for looking.
Each lot is $35 shipped via USPS Priority with Confirmation (CONUS only)
Payment may be by check (if I know you) or via a popular online payment service.
Lots are already individually boxed and ready to go. The first PM for each lot takes it.
