But clearly he was the one who ran off Pete J after this incident. Thats hecka upsetting.
Maybe that CsMoFo guy can bring back Pete like he brought back BradMC from the dead in his latest post?:unsure:
Rumor has it that Pete went through a few years of intense therapy over the incident but he is now stronger than ever.

You realize with all that craziness on the previous thread we missed out on Pete making that limited edition 666 box special release on Aleister Crowley's birthday dropped at the stroke of midnight and signed by Jimmy Page cigar for BOTL.:unsure:

This got me to thinking. Is there anything out there worth chasing like this.
No that I know of. About the closest thing that comes to mind is the Small Batch $50 cotm.
It's hard to get a spot, and the lineup they send is very impressive. Best cotm by a long shot.
You get between 3-5 cigars, usually totalling over $80. Just got my February smokes yesterday.
A $50 Davidoff LE, a $20 smoke by Avowed Cigars(a new brand that small batch owner started), and a $15 smoke from a newish brand called LH.
I'm was stoked. I've always been interested in the $25+ smokes, so this is a great opportunity.

Time for a monthly review of these smokes or at least some cigar porn on a dedicated thread.

I forgot how bad it was getting before the FDA scared the shit out of everybody.

"Our master blender found a rare recipe in his uncle's secret blending bible. The missing ingredient was a rare tobacco that hasn't been grown in eighty years. But, we managed to find thirty seeds in the drawer of an antique desk that was once in the office of a tobacco plantation owner in Cuba.

We didn't stop there. We slowly double fermented this rare wrapper leaf with cubes from a barrel originally used to age Cuban Rum in 1950. Then we rowed the finished cigars across the most infamous lake in Nicaragua to age an additional nine months on the highest peak of the Ometepe island.

We made 150 boxes for this one small shop in Iowa. So don't miss out on this once in a life time cigar."

It's too funny that this has come back. I don't even remember what it was.

And no, Pete did not "Run off" because of me. Pete was and will always be a good friend of mine and many others. Knowing him, I believe a bunch of things were in play. Mostly the drama. Pete was never a fan of it. He just wanted to be Pete and make great friends and cigars. It's tough being the maker of a cigar that everyone loses their minds to get.

Since those times, I've realized that there's more to life than cigars and bourbon. Though I will never give them up, I focus more now on life, health (to a point), and friendships. Which in hindsight, I wish I had thought of this sooner. I miss a lot of my brothers that I really care about. But that's on me.

I hope this site lives forever. It was a blessing for me.

Cheers and Take Care.

Hendy (not so cranky anymore).

This was when the Dracs and Boris were hitting the shelves. I remember Boris were the ones that were painful to obtain. I totally forgot about the spooky tickets. It turned grown men into fuggin 2-year-olds in a candy shop. LOL

This was the last I heard from Pete....

Drac's

The wrapper is Habano Oscuro or Maduro........Similar wrapper color to the Cojonu 2009. The 13 stores picked will get a larger allocation but every store in the top 130 or so will get at least a few boxes.

The messed up part is I am putting the spooky tickets inside the bundles. So, I am guessing there will not be any sealed boxes out there unless the tickets are found early.

Not this year....total of 1300 boxes......Plus the 650 boxes of the Frank out of costume.......name was going to be Boris but I need to clear it with a friend who has the name already maybe just B.K.

I´m giving away one Ducati Monster 696 with the Spooky Tickets. Yes, Golden Tickets like Willy Wonka.......1 winner 13 tickets.................hidden somewhere in the 1950 boxes....1300 Dracs and 650 B.K.

Frank out of costume.....Boris Karloff. No box press and about a half inch shorter......and a possibly a different wrapper. Maybe I´ll keep the same wrapper....Don´t know!

(this was gathered from his posts on this site and his Facebook page)

Great to see you in here @Hendy .
Please disregard my nonsense posts in your thread. I was just trying to keep things interesting.
