I have another 1-2 before I have to snag some more. They always have a place in my humidor that's for sure.

That's some lineup! I had another of the Nicarao's I'm going through tonight while trading gripes with my Lt over two slugs that work for me. I caught them sleeping today in the car in a very public place. It took everything I had not to rightfully rip them new ones on the spot. But they got theirs a few minutes later.

Finally had my first bad Ghurka yesterday. A Fury Torpedo that would have been a pretty decent smoke if it wasn't badly plugged. Less than 2" in and the entire outer wrapper split and came apart. Fortunately I got it in a bulk sampler so I didn't feel bad about chucking a $3 stick.

This may have been mentioned here already but if you haven't tried them pick up a sampler of genesis the project by Ramon bueso. You can get them off of cigar.com they are awesome.

While I'm at it ..... #9 liga privada's, prensado by Alec Bradley, can't go wrong ever with a padron any of them and economy wise I really like obsidian and CAO gold maduro with a bit of age on them like 6 months or so.

The Genesis is a good smoke, and at a really affordable price. I personally dont think it compares but Ive heard people call it the poor mans LP 9. Definitely worth picking some up if you havent tried one.

It was pretty surreal. They were all really cool down to earth people. How my buddy moved to Philly and became friends with all of them I'll never know lol
