I'm really sorry about this guys, but some very unexpected things came up at work today, and I may be out in the field 24 hours a day for the next 3-4 days. I'll post up my last clues, and whoever gets it first will get the pack. If no one gets the answer right, whoever is closest will get the pack, and the next time I'm on, I'll update the thread and let everyone know who won. I probably won't get the pack out in the mail until Monday, but I will make up for it with a nice pack. Sorry again.
Here is a recap and the final clues:

Ok, to recap:
alienmisprint:
My wife went down to Lake Charles today. I asked her to pick me up three cigars from the B&M there. What are the three cigars?
And a bonus question, if you get this one right, I'll throw a really nice bonus stick in there:
Did my wife bring back the right cigars?
Hint 1: two of the three are the same cigar
Next hint: I've never had the single cigar before, it is one I just wanted to try
Next hint: Neither of these cigars are available for regular purchase on Ccom (not sure about in samplers, special deals, etc, but you can't just go to the brands page and find them).
And next hint: The single cigar has an Ecuadorian grown Connecticut wrapper, the two other cigars have Nicaraguan grown Cafe Colorado wrappers......
Final clues: The brand of the two sticks has been named twice.
The cigar that there are two of is on my favorites list, the single is not.
The brand of the single name has not been named at all.
Brandon is the winner. And yes, she did indeed bring back the right cigars, and in the right sizes nonetheless. Two Illusione MJ 12s and a Camacho Connecticut Toro. I have your addy Brandon, unless it has changed in the past few months. If you have anything you've been wanting to try, let me know. And I think I have the perfect bonus stick for you, but the pack won't go out until Monday morning, again, I apologize, work is crazy right now.
Nice pick on the Camacho Connecticut Tony, I was gifted one a while back and I enjoyed the heck out of it...need to get some more. They really worked some magic on the idea of a Connecticut cigar.

that's cool tony take your time, I'll shoot you a pm with my address just to make sure. I'm in the midst of a move right now. Thanks again tony. I agree that the Camacho Connecticut is a winner.
Ok, I owe a trivia question. I got an email last night from a cigar shop I stop into when I'm out on the road. They rarely ever have events, but this email was for an event that I will be in the area for and plan to stop in to. The question is what cigar/s are being featured at this event?
hint: This is not a really well known cigar producer...prolly more known for another tobacco product

This name is more synonymous with pipes than cigars.

This pipe maker is an American pipe maker that produces only a small number of pipes each year now.
good guesses, but this particular answer is referring to a man who carved pipes for many years, his pipes fetch some high prices in the estate pipes I've seen for sale.
Well I don't know if I can play this game or not, you guys decide. I am on the good traders list, but I only have one trade, so not sure how many I need to have. If I can play I already pm'ed my answer, if not I pmed my answer and I'm sticking my tongue out at all of you
Hey Bob ..... your meet the criteria for the game ..... you need to be on the good traders list and have 25 posts ...... so as per the rules you are all good
Butera Cigars by friend.....and quite excited to hear about an event with a smaller maker. Give us the info if you go to it. I would love to try their Vintage Maduro line.

this is it! send me a pm with your info and I'll try to get a package out to you shortly. Unfortunately, it will not have a Butera cigar in there, but I may pick a few up at the event. As long as my schedule permits, I should be able to stop in for a while thursday.
Mike Butera makes a mighty fine cigar. (Good pipe tobaccos, too.) They used to be reasonably available, and I used to smoke a lot of them. By "reasonably available" I mean I could get them at enough different places to price shop. Then they just up and disappeared.
Hope your local event means they're making a comeback, bbc.
