Sarasota/Venice weather tends to be very good that time of the year as is Tampa. Warmer temps with some rain in the afternoon. I love the summers in Florida. I get great use of the pool and beaches.

Thumbs up Florida Trip

For anyone else looking to come to Florida I will be down after Christmas to escape this awful cold and 18 inches of snow from January 3rd to January 11th 2014. I am sure the weather will be wonderful as always so anyone will be in town let me know.

Jon, looking to meet up again sometime that week within the short time I have would be great

Gentlemen I was deeply moved today. I had received a PM from a member here offering to send me a couple Feral Pigs as they are simply unavailable anywhere. Well, I received a package today and while I won't say publically who sent it or what was included, I will say it was extremely generous and something I did nothing to deserve. The sender is truly a kind and generous man. I wish you and your family the very best of everything this Christmas season. Thank you Sir.

Great pics Jon! The Fuente Anejo is known as the "Christmas Cigar" up here because we can only get it during the holiday season and most suppliers north of NYC are limited to one box per store and 2 per customer

The Anejo is also a butt kicker if you are not used to such a cigar.

Good morning gentlemen!! Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas!

Sorry I've been light on updates lately, been pulled in a thousand other directions but I have lots of updates to give. Will try to consolidate everything into one post, and I'll only highlight the BEST cigars I've had since my last update (seems like forever ago).

Again, hope this message finds everyone blessed. You guys rock

Cheers,

Finally got the chance to try the Feral Flying Pig thanks. I wasn't sure what to expect, but I had very good things about this cigar. Visually it is a little intimidating due its size and dark wrapper. The construction was excellent and the draw was perfect. The cigars starts out with the taste of rich, dark coffee and follows up with very nice nutty flavor. The cigar was excellent and I loved every draw to the point where it started to burn my fingers. The flavor builds but it never gets harsh and actually sweetens up as it burns. Great smoke that I would definitely put on my buy list if they were available. Thank you Jon.

Quick question for those who fly into Vegas: are cigars allowed on carry-ons? Or do they have to be checked in? I'll be flying into Vegas for a buddy's birthday and looking to take some of my good smokes with me.

Any help and/or tips are appreciated.

Cigars aren't an issue on carry-ons. The lighter and cutter are...just put them in your check in or if you have no check in...get cheapies and hide them in your carry on just in case they get confiscated.

I have not had an issue carrying cutters and cheap "bic" style lighters. Torch lighters need to be in a special case. Cigars have never been an issue.
