Why Can't I be a Lancero?
Tampa Sweetheart's also had their access reduced a bit.
How's that possible? Fuente owns Tampa Sweethearts.

A whole freaking box :crosseyed...I've heard legends of such things.Any B&Ms get these in? If so, please let me know!
The place here would never get good stuff like that...be a waste if they did as they wouldn't care for 'em properly.

That was my reaction. TS wanted the family privilege on the 858 sungrown deal, Carlito said no... things are changing.
Unlike say Fumare/Illusione or Holt's/Ashton, TS is tied to the Fuente family, but is run by a completely separate part of the family.
It's part of the Opus/Prometheus humidor package, not a separate box. 11 BBMF's and 11 maduro BBMF's.Any B&Ms get these in? If so, please let me know!
And yes, Fuente opened the floodgates this year and took care of accounts that were up.
$1800 on ebay right now.
MY buddy said he would sell his box for $1400 22 sticks. Just sayin I told him did not own them or pay for them so I wouldn't seel them here. We might post them at Wade's. He's not even sure he wants to part with em.
Way too much for my blood.

I just came from a B&M who is up to date and he had a good selection of Anejo, Hemmy Maddys, WOAM, BTL and Opus will be in tuesday.
He told me, if you are over two months due with Fuente, expect to get little or none of the "holiday" cigars. Luckily he is up to date on them!

Local shop is due for a second shipment in the next couple of days. I'll be back there on Sunday before I head back home to the Family to see what else gets dropped in. I talked the GM into calling his Fuente rep and asking about the Hemi Rosados.
Dan, I'm still in shock that they had a few different boxes/sizes of Opus X, and BTL's. But, like Dan said, they don't take care of anything. You walk into the humidor and you can almost smell the dank odor. You look around, and will randomly see white fuzzy cigars. One box low and in the corner of the shelf was completely white... I wanted to say something, but the only person around to help me was the counter guy out in the other part of the store, and didn't have any clue what I was talking about. I need to catch the owner, or her son, and show them what the hell is going on in their humidor. And it's so damn unorganized. I saw lots of boxes of Brickhouse sitting around, but couldn't find on the shelf where the singles would have been. So disorganized!
But it is refreshing to see some nice, new releases in there. Just you have to get it immediately before the Mold Monster in there takes a hold on them.
