25 more sticks arriving in a few days

[MascaraSnake]

The LJ Peretti sampler I ordered earlier this year I sent back due to needing the couple hundred to make a payment and I've been eagerly awaiting and compiling my next sampler.

Got a debit card during that time and my choice of online smoke shops opened up...this one's from Famous Smoke Shop (selection looks really good) and since I'm currently unemployed (18 and in my senior year of high school) I chose the sticks that were on the more affordable side yet very well reviewed. Compiled one of their samplers (9 cigars) with their bargain sticks (16 cigars).

This is enough to fill up my little humidor for a while. Here's the spread...the order's been placed and pictures will be posted when they arrive! Along with my first official review.

What should I smoke first?

I think you should smoke the Punch first. Not because it's the best cigar but because it's the one I randomly picked.

I like the RP SG's and the Vintage... I also like the SPDM's, Torano Exodus, and the "Red Dot" Cohiba's (seems like a lot of gorillas don't like the DR Cohibas though).

I dont have much to add except that Peretti's is an outstanding tobacco shop. Very friendly staff.

[TMoneYNYY]

Go with the RP Vintage, you won't be dissipointed.

Ordered 2 huge tins of this English pipe blend Omega a few months back, real great stuff and the service was amazing. Got to my house in less than 3 days...!

Some pretty good choices there, I'd also say the RP 92, it's one of the greatest everyday smokes around. =)

Good to see there are others in my age group/financial bracket. Just goes to show we're all brothers; in the end it's the cigars that bring us here

From your list, I've enjoyed the smokes above (I also got a Famous sampler with several of the same sticks as you, but I haven't smoked many of them yet), especially the SP double maduro and the Punch Rothschild (also double maduro). I liked the SP's so much I got a box; delicious and inexpensive . I also got a bundle of the RP Sun Grown 2nds, and the one I had, although very fresh, was quite tasty... Not to mention they all seem to be very well made, I didn't find anything "2nd" about them at all.

If I had to pick one off your list it would be the SP Quixote for sure. Whatever you pick, enjoy!

Smoke this one first Indian Tabac Boxer Robusto .

Great sampler with a great variety you got there.

[mhillsing23]

Go for the Sancho Panza Double Maduro Quixote or the RP SG first!

[justinwb]

I say smoke the RP sun grown they are truly delicious

[MascaraSnake]

Should be arriving within the hour...next post will be with pictures.

[MascaraSnake]

Scratch that...I need a new digicam guys, the pictures aren't uploading and they usually do.

Anyway...smoking the Punch first.

[newcigarz]

Nice selection. Let us know how you liked the Punch.

[MascaraSnake]

All I can say is wow; posted the review and you'll see more over this next month.
