I know I mentioned on somebodie's post that I was headed to a tasting a couple of Fridays ago. So here is the deal they had going on.
It was buy 3 get one free, but the box deal was the real bargain. If you bought a box, they threw in a ball cap, a cheap cutter, a DVD about cigar making, some tickets to their raffle and an eight cigar sampler pack of all different lines and sizes. I don't usually buy CAO mostly because there are cigars I like better intheir price range, but the La Traviata just got a 93 in Cigar Afficionado in the robusto size and they were only 4.25 a stick. With the 15% discount they had on that night, I got 20 excellent cigars plus the eight more expensive cigars and all that other stuff for less than 75 bucks. I didn't plan on getting a box, but that was too good a deal to pass up.
All in all, I was pretty happy. And I'm set for a couple of months. It pays to hang out at the cigar store.
Wow! I need to go to more of these. Corona Cigar has three excellent Orlando stores, and is just down the road a couple of hours from me. I get their e-mail invites, but haven't been to one yet.
