Cigar Shopping in STT

[VirginIslander]

So the family is in town this week (well, on-island). They wanted to go downtown shopping today so we went down, looked around. Saw a store with a sign that said 'Premium Cigars' so I checked it out. Very small walk-in. Decent prices **for the island** ($11 for an Ashton VSG) and I probably would have bought something except for the guy that worked there. He kept following me around picking up cigars that had good ratings (as were posted on the boxes) and saying "What about this one? It was rated '##', its a great cigar." :eyepoke: Pointed out mostly stuff I don't like (RP anyone?) then proceeded to look confused when I inquired if they have Opus. "We don't sell cubans." Ok. Thanks for your time. and left.

then we went to AH Riise who sells everything from Breitlings, to Johnnie Walker Blue King George ($4995 if you are interested...no I'm not missing a decimal) to make-up/perfume, to a very small walk in but have some good smokes. They sell opus right at about MSRP. I picked up 2 perfexion #5s at $12 each, and 2 3-pack tins of Reserva D' Chateu at $54/tin. Cheapest I've ever seen em (the smoke shop close to me sells them at $45/stick).

Not a bad day. Since I have about 12 Opus now and 5 on the way from Cyrann....I think today is the day to break my Opus cherry.

that seems like an amazing price for opus there. it's just a couple of bucks more than around here. he must have a good source.
