My local Cigar Shop "Davids Briar Shop" here in Des Moines sells off the boxes after they're sold out of the cigars. I went in there asking for that very box but there were 4 cigars left, they were 20 dollars a piece and I already had a few so I didn't want to buy them. So I figured I'd come back later for it.. But first I went into the public Humidor and was looking at some new cigars they recieved (I ended up buying my first Oliva), and within minutes the lady came back with the box and said someone just bought the remaining cigars!

It was supposed to be 25 bucks flat but she ended up giving it to me for 10! Good deal in my opinion, it still smells great!

I was thinking of building an amp in it.. but thats just my Inner Head-Fi Gremlin talking!

Anyone tried the Puros Indios line of cigars? My fave: Maxima Reserva. Any opinions on these?

This place has a review for just about every cigar. I base my purchases off both those reviews and forum reviews.

As for myself, can't say I've tried anything by PI.

Mostly a great double maduro will be pretty dense in smoke. Try an Sancho panza double. Pretty cheap and verry tasty.
