Well it is kind of like matchbox cars. I start by getting all of them out and placing them in different catagories, then I roll a few and take a closer look at others and maybe even give some a sniff. After thatching bring the new cigars into the mix and start to organize them back into all of my seperate storage areas and then humidors completely different from what I had them organized before, rarely do I ever return to a previous orginization method. That is what I call "Playing Cigars" please feel free to use this as your definition of thecterm in the future. :-)

I'd rather deal with a small store and friendly owners than a large corporate store with only the "latest" selection that treat you like you don't exist when you drop your hard earned cash there. :-)

Oh yeah don't get me wrong, selection wise they are my favorite shop in town. The only reason I like another place better is because it is closer to me, and has a place where people can go smoke. All of the three good cigar stores in Seattle and really great run by high quality BOTL's I try to go out of my way to support them whenever I can.

That's good to hear! Love a close knit B&M.

Wish there were more B&Ms here..

Read this post again in a couple months...you'll laugh and wonder how your cigars are breeding so fast!

Enough banter. More pictures.

picked up the last two Ferral Flying Pigs that my B&M had on the shelf along with a Nub Cameroon Tubo (to complete my set).

picks will follow. my wife and the baby are asleep upstairs right now.

and here they are

Agreed.....those are bucket list smokes for sure!!!

Picked a few up at the B&M yesterday for happy hour. The RP 15th Anniversary and the Acid Toast were freebies. I'm going to try the two Petit Tats because I've been looking for a good short smoke.
