AND I am BAAAACK!

wow, where do I even begin...it has been a while.

I have recently gone through a move, as I bought a new house, had the RTDA, been doing Serie V events all over the place, I have also been working on a secret project, oh and my wife gave birth to our 3rd child 2 weeks ago.

His name is Vaughn James and he came in weighing in at 7lbs 1oz...he is our second boy as our middle child is a girl...so I am very lucky to have "bookends". They should help keep an out for her...I really couldn't be luckier...I am very very happy.

Either my home life has slowed down a bit or I am just getting used to the chaos, but it looks as though I should have a little time here and there to keep up with the best cigar forum on the web.

My professional life looks to only get crazier, as the Serie V is a HUGE hit as we can't keep any on the shelves, and if you haven't heard already it got a 94 in cigar insider. When that hits Cigar Aficionado, sales will go through the roof...Honestly the V is doing so well, that a 94 rating is a cursed blessing. So if you see any...u better grab em...

We also are working on the much anticipated Master Blend 4...I wouldn't expect to see this cigar for at least 6 mos...maybe even a year tho...so MB3 fans..you better stock up now, because once they are done...they are done.


Well I just wanted to give you all an update, and I am sure I will be posting more often effective immediately.


All The Best,


Sam Leccia

I keep hearing people talk about your cigars...I'm going to have to try one some day. I just can't decide which one to try first.

Congrats to you and your wife on having another baby.

Congrats on the addition to your family Sam - I was wondering if we were gonna ever see you posting again.

I have been looking high and low for the V Lanceros. Stocking up on the "smaller" sticks in preparation for fall/winter. Hope I'll stumble across a box soon, but it would appear everyone is currently out of stock.

Looking forward to adding a box of the MB4 to my collect. Guess I should start looking for that new humidor now...

After all the sticks you sent out for churchy's boys, you need to buy some that's for sure. LOL. Congratulations Sam on the family and the business. How many more kids do you plan on having?

Congrats, Sam!

By the way, those Serie Vs are great! I really think those things are going to become my go-to smoke.

We had a little fun last night with the Serie V. I lit a Serie V and started drinking bourbon. The idea was to see if I could smoke the cigar before the bourbon smoked me. Well, that Double Toro lasted 2 hours, 13 minutes! It was a pretty fair matchup, but I claimed victory...and went to bed.

Yahoo, Sam is back! It's been a while man. Congratulations on the new home and new bundle of joy!

Those Serie V are great...and I've been itching to try one of the Lancero's. Looks like I might have to wait a while longer...dang it!
