Pete's picks 2008.....

[Cyrann]

It's a great sampler at a great price.

If it weren't for the monster series I would be all over this, but all in all it is nice to see some people that have yet to try the Tat blacks have a fair and reasonable chance.

 

[Soundwave13]

I agree Cyrann.
100%

 

[uncelnino]

I can't tell the diff either Gale...
I'm just hoping to get my hands on some rather than constantly have to buy samplers or boxes to get one or two at a shot.

I'm not biting on this one, I'm over budget again.

Pete seems to squeeze more money outa me than the wife...

I hate to tell you bro, but unless there is a brother selling a fiver on here I would be seriously surprised to see multiple blacks sold together by a retailer. Why would they when they can pretty much sell a whole sampler based on one stick? I'm not saying they are being greedy, I just think their strategy all along was to make this sampler and keep it as simple as that.

I totally agree. And it's super cool of Pete and Dan to provide that chance. Plus, like we've established, there's several other really good smokes in that sampler as well.


Also, i saw a fiver of blacks on ebad a day or so ago. It was currently bidding at $69 i think, which is a very fair price. Gonna go check it out again.

 

[bballbaby]

OK...ebad...11 bids, curretnly at $68 w/ $5 shipping, 2 days, 9 hours left. I got my eye ont his one. I could use 5 more; i've given a few away.

Who couldn't use five more? :smile:

Got my sampler on it's way.

And if my memory serves me right. The blacks in jars are done. I know where there is one that I am waiting for them to hand me. Pete does have something up his sleeve for the future. But, he will have to tell you because I have been sworn to secrecy.

 

[bohizzle]

If I had the money I would buy atleast one of each Cause I have yet to try a tat black. I am so strapped for cash right now it is not even funny!!!!! Maybe I will try the lottery!!!

Hmm Speaking of I'm pretty much settled now. I just need to get packing material and stuff. I didn't forget Scott. I have a note next to your name in my address listing. I'm forecasting next week hehe.

How is that? (last available?)

#1 - I thought that only about 350 were released out of about 1000?

#2 - now he has robustos added to the line-up?

#3 - there are rumors of a new size? (I think it's just robustos, but still...)

I am confused by this post. What 350 out of 1000 are you talking about?

 

[Soundwave13]

See???

This is the kind shit that drives me nuts.

So & so has some held for me...
There is stuff up his sleeve...
I've been sworn to secrecy...

I'm gonna go bang my head against the wall for a little while.

 

[Halon]

Pete,
I think some of us are under the impression that there will be another releaseof the Tat Blacks in the near future, and that you have only sold about a third of the total jars so far.


TYLER

 

[Soundwave13]

Thank Pete...

Please give some clarity on the availability of the Blacks, What is left? Is there a new size (other than robusto?)...

350 out of 1000 - jars/bundles of blacks..?

I don't remember where I read that...

Sorry for the double post but I saw you were online and I am a bit confused by your post.

 

[Headbanger]

Pete, looks like he has some questions about how many jars are still to be released and will there be a robusto or others added to this line.

All The jars are gone. Except for about 18 that I saved for me to smoke and to use for charities and special event raffles.

I had extra bundles leftover without jars and those were sold to a few retailers. I saved a few of these bundles also.....

The Robustos are not for sale normally but I sold Dan a small amount to use for his special sampler. One as a thank you to him for being my No.1 retailer in the country as of last week and two, to thank the guys on all the boards for the support. I normally only have these in 3 packs which I use for events for box purchases but we ran out of the empty packs and I had the factory send the overrun in bundles. If you see me out, you will see me carrying one of these bundles.......

Next year we will see a long corona gorda for the black size but in very small quantity........

Hope this helps........

Pete

BTW, Dan was holding back a few bundles so he could do something like this sampler after the cigars were gone. What I love is that he is not charging any more $ for the cigars even though they are gone......

Also guys, You must understand that the binder we use for the wrapper on the Blacks is a pain to sort. We have to go through bails of binder and select what we want to put on the cigar as wrapper. An extra process for the factory including wetting so the binder is pliable to wrap with.......This is why we don't make a bunch

 

[Asher]

Just saw this on the NHC website. Ordered, then posted. Looks pretty good!
