Sounds like a plan.kaspera79:
I remember the man saying he doesn't watch his count and it will not be a big deal at all. Hemingway Masterpieces for the first 1000 people to congratulate him ( I think ). Is that right Urb'sj0z3r:Not to derail this thread about the Sancho Panza HMR, but I just noticed that our buddy urby should be hitting his 1000 mark in the next few days. Oh boy, what's the contest gonna be like?

Maybe not 1000, but sure, I don't mind shipping out some paperback copies of, say, The Sun Also Rises.0
-
hahaha, nicely played.0
-
damn ernest hemingway for having the last name of something thats good!0

What size did you smoke? I may look to get a few
The Sancho Panza I mean... sorry to rerail your derailed thread0 -
I have one of those with 18 months on it, but somehow never seem to pick it from the lineup, though I have been tempted. A good one than, Urbi?urbino:But if you really do want more suggestions, kas, try the Oliva Special S.0 -
I thought it was excellent, Smoke. I think I gave it a 9.1 or 9.2.0
-
Good deal, I'll make sure I give it the time it deserves than. Thanks budurbino:I thought it was excellent, Smoke. I think I gave it a 9.1 or 9.2.0 -
i havent had the sancho panza, or the extra fuerte but i have had the duble maduro in both la mancha (5.5 x 44) and lancero (5x54). the lancero had no flavor at all but the la mancha had all the flavor and tasted good. maybe just the duble maduro brand is this way, i dont know.0
-
The Extra Fuerte is pretty good, worth picking up one or two with an order. I've had only the Cordoba size, which is a corona, and it is pretty good.0
-
I'm an idiot. I'm reading Don Quixote right now. Why am I not smoking some SPs? (Aside from having a cold and therefore being hesitant to try something new when I can't fully taste it.)0
-
Speaking of Don Quixote, you had mentioned in another thread that there is a new translation of it. Who publishes that version? I want to look for it at my local book store or maybe Amazon.0
-
Ecco. It's by Edith Grossman.0
-
Second question ( I actually answered the first on my own with some googling) is it any good?0
-
So far. I haven't read any other translations, though, so I have no basis for comparison. It got rave reviews from the people in the know, though.0

1 stick = $750kaspera79:
Very funny. It breaks my heart because the box price is SUCH a better deal.urbino:So only get 5.
Box of 20 = $13,995
750 x 20 = 14,000
14,000 - 13,995 = 5
You save $5 by buying the box.0 -
I think there was a joke in the kas' post Joe. Namely the fact that you only save $5 with a box purchase, or $.25 per stick.0

Hey that almost pays the shipping !! I just added a box to my cart.dutyje:

I'm always frustrated that nobody gets my sarcasm, yet I have a hard time picking up on anyone else's.. Hypocritcal of me, I know. I'm going to blame it on trying to get caught up after leaving town for the weekend.j0z3r:I think there was a joke in the kas' post Joe.

Back to the Sancho Panza. I had my first one the other night. I got it in a PIF from Smoke I think. It was gold label, box pressed. which one was this? Damn good cigar but it was like holding a smoke bomb and it unraveled on me.0
-
i think that was the extra fuerte.0
-
oh, they do have somw quality issues but ive never had one unravel on me.0
-
Well it unraveled but it stayed together wel enough to be smoked, if that makes sense?!? I enjoyed it thoroughly. Do they all put off that much smoke?0
-
Not me unfortunately. After all the reviews, this one is on my must try list though.madurofan:Back to the Sancho Panza. I had my first one the other night. I got it in a PIF from Smoke I think.

I do the same myself, the major failing of sarcasm if you ask me.dutyje:

The difficulty of sarcasm on the 'net is one of life's perennial problems.0
-
Exactly, so much of what makes sarcasm is in the tone of voice, something which is quite difficult to produce with text.urbino:The difficulty of sarcasm on the 'net is one of life's perennial problems.0 -
yes. thats one of the reasons why i like that cigar so much.madurofan:Do they all put off that much smoke?0 -
It would be a good thing at home but sitting on the patio at a restaurant it was making me a little nervous.kuzi16:
