A FELLOW SOX FAN!!!!!Nice. Anyway, I also have a ciagr store near my home that CONSISTENTLY has Anejos (sharks only around XMAS though) in stock and Opus's in Stock (about 6 months a year on Opus). They are also VERY reasonably priced considering what we have all seen them go for at some places. Please let me know if I can help you at all in buying some for payback, or even for a trade perhaps with stuff I cannot find easily around here. Have a good one-------YOU CAN PUT IT ON THE BOOOOOOOOARD YEEEEESSSS!!!!vankleekkw:
No, I'd be an Anejo whore if I could find them all over the place. HAHAHAHA!!!!!madurofan:Such a DPG whore, van ... lol -

Favorite cigar RP Decade torpedo. -
Sounds good Vulchor, I'll have to keep it in mind. Just went in on a split of 49s that a guy still had on the shelf.

I started this thread and never chimed in afterwords cause I was too new to have a "go to" cigar but I am quickly falling in love with the 5 Vegas line. Other then the gold, which I thought was a bit bland for my taste, I have thoroughly enjoyed the Relic and the 'A' series with the medium to full body smoke and a good bit of complexity. I am starting to keep my eye on boxes of these already!

My 3 go-to cigars are:
- Padron 2000 (for the reasonably-priced, everyday go-to cigar)
- Arturo Fuente Hemingway, any size or blend (for the tastier, high-quality, reliable smoke)
- Padron 1964 Anniversary (for when I'm having a REALLY bad day :-P)
Some other nice-to-have-every-now-and-then cigars for me are:
- Rocky Patel Vintage 1990 (creamy, coffee, and spicy, like smoking a cup of spiced chai).
- Romeo y Julieta Vintage III's (cedary, spicy, medium bodied)
- Padron 1964 Anniversary (good enough to mention twice)
-
Gurkha Beauty, Rocky Patel Conn, Alec Bradley Maxx and Tempus!

After smoking four of these in less than a week, I would have to say that my go-to has quickly become the Xikar Defiance. It seems like I am always in the mood for one of those.
-
Sorry to say, the Defiance is apparently being discontinued.
-
What???? Where did you hear that?
-
That would be a shame, it's a damn good cigar.
-
Especially since I just discovered it.....and the box I ordered is on a 10-14 day backorder......
-
Where did you see this? My B&M is having an event for them later this summer, I doubt that would be the case if they are being discontinued. IDK ...betasynn:Sorry to say, the Defiance is apparently being discontinued. -
Dunno, I think Beta's yanking our collective chain.
-
we have a collective chain?
-
I believe it is used to start our group-mentality crankshaft.madurofan:we have a collective chain?
Well, I emailed the "contact us" address on the Defiance site, hopefully I'll get an answer back soon. -
Sorry, I don't have internet at my house, so it was a bit tough to update. I don't remember where I heard it, but it was a pretty reliable source. It could be that it isn't the case, and they were wrong, but I heard that Xikar was going to replace the defiance with their new line.
-
The reason I doubt this beta is that most of the proceeds from defiance go to fight anti-tobacco legislation. The cigar is a tax write off for Xikar, I imagine it would have to be doing pretty bad for them to cut it.betasynn:Sorry, I don't have internet at my house, so it was a bit tough to update.

I don't pretend to know the logic, just passing the message along.madurofan:

I heard that they were just dropping the Defiance name and possibly changing the blend.
Here is a quote from what I heard.
"The company that created the teardrop-shaped cigar cutter is amping up its burgeoning cigar business, while dropping the name of its highly rated cigar brand. Xikar Inc. of Kansas City, Missouri, has removed the word "Defiance" from its cigar line, and is now selling cigars under the name Xikar HC Series.
Xikar HC Series, which began shipping to cigar stores this month, comes in three varieties: Connecticut Shade, Criollo, and Habano Colorado. The Connecticut, which the company describes as "slightly stronger than the average Connecticut-shade cigar," is the mildest of the three blends, made with a Connecticut-seed wrapper grown in Ecuador, an Indonesian binder and filler from Costa Rica, Mexico and Nicaragua.

Interesting. Thanks for the update Van.
