My B&M has upgraded!

[Mickeyray5]

I just got back from my B&M. I have not been there for a while and they had rearranged their humidor. All the Indian Tobac stuff is gone. They have the whole Graycliff line, Ashton VSG and tons of Fuente (but no Opus!). I found out that the VSG's I got from Cbid for $53 plus shipping I could have gotten for $45 there. I picked up some La Aurora Cien Anos Robustos and Coronas for about $8 each.

Has anyone ever heard of an Ashton ESG? They were $19.99 but I had never heard of them.

By the way, this place is called Jungle Jims and is actually a grocery store...

The Churchills came out last summer, and the Robustos this winter. They are very expensive, to the point that most people wouldn't consider them worth the money. I found the Churchills to be very tasty, but the Robusto was a let down (dunno why, but it wasn't as flavorful).

now that's what I call an upgrade

You definitely can't complain about that upgrade

 

[kirscovitch]

The ESG's are a fairly good smoke but not worth the price. my local shop has them for like $23 a stick. but theres a site kelly showed me this weekend where you can buy singles for i belive it was $18 a stick. but still a little pricey.

I personally thought the ESG was a great cigar, but it was definitely pricey. For $8 the 100 Anos is a steal. I love those cigars.

Shit, I bought five ESGs and still have not had one. I need to go pull out one of those

Aren't they discontinued? That is a great price anyway, but even more so if they are.

 

[TexaSmoke]

The Anos are technically discontinued. To my knowledge they made a certain number then set 3 release dates. This is the final release, so they shouldn't be making/releasing anymore after these are gone. It is a shame since it is such a great cigar.

 

[mealstrom]

I've been so curious to try them! I may have to pick some up as soon as I get a little $$$

Are these the same cigars you sent a box of to the herf?


Those were awesome!

 

[caudio51]

If you're referencing the box Todd, yea you said they were the La Aurora 100 Anos, a great smoke which has come to it's production end. The last shipment came over so whatever is in the states is it.

Buy up

I have had a couple of them and I am going to bite the bullet and get a box before they are gone. And I have one ESG in the Hummi and I am letting it sit for a while before I lite it up.
