First CC order!

[PamunkeyHub]

Just wanted to share that I'm celebrating placing my first box order and CC order all in one!

I have a box of Bolivar Petit Coronas headed my way and I'm looking forward to trying them. I've been lurking on BOTL for a few months now, but only joined around the first of March. Since then, I've already outgrown one tupperdor and have at the least, tripled my cigar knowledge. I owe all the contributors of the site a big Thank You for the contributions!

On a side note, my BIL is getting married in May and I've volunteered to supply the cigars for him and his groomsmen. Considering the occasion, I feel CC will really make a statement (especially to a group of cigar novices.) That being said, I choose the BPC for it's size (slightly longer than the BCJr. but with the same RG.) I figure we will have 30-45 min max to enjoy them during pictures and I'd hate to drop big $$$ on a gar that's going to be pitched 1/2 through.

Thanks for reading! I'll post up a picture as soon as they arrive.

Congratulations on the upcoming wedding. You chose wisely. The BPC is a flavor bomb, and they smoke great rott. The shorter duration of burn time should work in your favor, and the cost is reasonable so you won't cringe if someone pitches one halfway through the smoke. Plus, you are gonna love smoking the rest of the box yourself.

Good choice...Bolivar is one of my favorite PCs. Might have to buy a box myself. Wife will be thrilled...

Yep. We husbands have to do all we can to keep 'em happy.

Solid choice for your first box.

Well done on the choice! Also, what time do you want us all there?

Thank you, @boltman @Schlitzinacan @Tennessee Dave @icehog3 @Ducttapegonewild

I'm really looking forward to getting them. Since I ordered the CC's, I won a CA auction for a box of Flor De Las Antillas Toro Gordo's... This is a slippery slope!

Oh, anytime @Ducttapegonewild!

It's a very slippery slope... Enjoy the ride!

Great choice, but don't celebrate till You get the cigars, lol. Just saying things occur beyond your control.

You're right @Angry Bill! I'll feel a lot better once they are in hand. That being said, I just couldn't fight the urge to share with you guys.

Love it brother. Keep sharing. Personally, I'm hoping the Feds careless with the current posturing, but I know someone that got 2 packages confiscated in the part 2 weeks. Pretty ridiculous imho.

Sorry for the slight zombie response -- Do you have any recourse when packages are confiscated, or is it simply a gamble?

Most vendors will guarantee shipment. Thankfully I have only had to test that policy once.

We need the location too! LOL.

This post is almost two months old. The wedding was 5/9... However, I can report that the B PC's were a big success.
