I believe the deal is good through Sunday.

The gran habanos are great smokes. Aged almost a decade. That's a solid buy.


I usually smoke a cigar every other night with a scotch on the veranda- so, 3 or 4 a week. Never more than that. I never drink or smoke on two consecutive days. Ever. I enjoy both way too much, so without self-imposed limits, I could easily over-Indulge (which can cause issues).

I do have a couple of large humis, and I like to age my cigars. So, I grab a deal or two and store them away.

Indeed, the one you posted is fake. The OK Go video on the other hand simply took many takes for the Rube Goldberg device to work all the way from beginning to end (hence the paint splattered overalls, the pile of broken tvs, etc.).

They are less than TWO dollars a stick.


20 cigars for either 34.99 or 39.99. Just can't go wrong.

When you get them, I recommend resting them for no less than 2 weeks in the humi. Shipping usually dries them out a bit.

This is a good deal for those just starting out:

Pick three 5-pack samplers from their selections and choose a free gift: a 50 ct humi, a Xikar cutter, or a Bugatti lighter. So, for around $70, you get 15 good cigars and a humidor. If you're needing a second humi, this is a great way to get it. The cost of the cigars alone at a brick and mortar store would be more than $80. Or you could do this three times and end up with all three free gifts and 45 good cigars for around $190.
