Christmas Samplers

FYI.... The Christmas Samplers are complete!  There are only 25, so come get them while you can.  They are all dirt cheap... and we mean WAY below retail.  The variations we decided on are as follows:

The New Smoker- $19.95-  We chose what we consider the perfect smokes for the newer folks...

Macanudo Gold Duke of York:  Mild and Creamy cigar with notes of vanilla and wood.  Scored 89 in Cigar Aficionado.

Nat Sherman Metropolitan Maduro Angler:  Great burning stick.  Has notes of muted cocoa and licorice with a vanilla taste on the finish.  

Casa Toraño Robusto:  Mild smoke with a beautiful Ecuadorian wrapper and woody finish.  

Hoyo de Tradición Toro:  A sweeter cigar with toasty cedar notes.  Floral and earthy hints fall into a perfect creamy finish.  Scored 90 in the latest issue of Cigar Aficionado.

(And get a double-blade cutter with this sampler!!!)

Iron Man- $27.95-  For the experienced smoker only!!!  We chose four of our favorite full-bodied smokes packed with flavor and and aged tobaccos.

The Edge Maduro Toro: An oily cigar with a hearty taste of hickory wood.  The finish is full of coffee and an earthy spice.

Cohiba Black Corona:  A strong solid core of anise and licorice.  Carries coffee notes and has a toasty finish.  Scored 88 in Cigar Aficionado.

Padilla Miami 8/11 Robusto:  Oily and sweet packing a punch full of coffee beans, earth, and spice.  Scored 92 in Cigar Aficionado. 

La Flor Dominicana Chisel Maduro:  Dark and oily, giving off amazing aromas as it burns.  Sweet leather, cream, and spice build to an amazing long finish.  Scored 91 in Cigar Aficionado.

The Elite Sampler- $38.95- We've picked out our favorite elite cigars, put them in a bag, and cut the price down to crazy. This one is pure enjoyment for seasoned smokers... Enjoy.

Don Pepin Garcia Serie JJ Torpedo:  One of Matt's very favorites, by his favorite maker in the business.  Enough said...

Savinelli Special Nicaraguan Reserve 2004 Torpedo:  This sticks have a smokey hickory taste with hints of spice and cedar.  Medium bodied, and no longer available after ours are gone!

Coranado By La Flor Double Corona:  Balanced flavors of sweet cocoa, leather, and earth.  This smoke has a sweet cedary finish and has rated in the 90's and was Cigar Aficionado's #2 cigar of the year in 2006!

Arturo Fuente Chateau Fuente Sun Grown Torpedo:  Smooth smoke with sweet cedar notes and hints of white pepper.  It's a Fuente, so you can expect a good burn and great experience from this sungrown.

Oliva Masterblend Torpedo:  A woody, medium bodied Nicaraguan puro you are sure to love.  Expect a great burn, smooth draw, and pleasant finish from this elite stick.

Oliva Serie V Double Toro:  A tasty and complex cigar that wowed it's market with a score of 94 last year in the torpedo size.  This stick is woody and nutty with hints of coffee throughout.  You will keep coming back for this stick, but do it soon... they are always on backorder for this reason!

The Best Christmas Gifts!

This post is to inform you we are seriously re-stocked on our Perdomo Lot 23's. It's been our best selling cigar since we brought them in for good reason. The maduro Lot 23 and maduro Oliva Serie O are my personal favorite low budget cigars. This is not to mention, we already have better prices than the rest... so during this economic slump you can still enjoy your cigars!

Java's by Drew Estate will be re-stocked by the end of the week. We have stocked the Maduro, but will now also stock the Latte. These cigars have also moved very well. Feel free to enjoy any of these sticks with a cup of Monkeez Brew coffee just outside the shop. We have placed covered benches and tables there for this reason, so make yourself comfortable! When you do, tell the cashier to call one of us so we have an excuse to walk over and enjoy one with you.... (seriously)

Please keep in mind that we have several cigars available that were limited editions and are very hard to find. All of these are FANTASTIC sticks and will now be better with age. These are the Aurora Cien Anos, El Centurion by Don Pepin, and Kahlua (replaced by the Java). We also have Liberty 2007's that we will sell by the box only.

This week we will unveil what we consider "the ultimate man gift". We will be putting together Goodfellas Samplers at crazy prices that will last through NEW YEARS or until supplies last. Check the humidor this weekend... there will be two versions on display, one for the beginner and one for the experienced smoker. Hope your holiday's are great and we hope to see you soon!

Winter is coming!

Ahhh, the smell of winter looms in the air.  The crisp evening sunsets, sound of leaves falling over one another, and the feel of a good cigar in your hand.  These are just a few of the things we all enjoy about fall.  

In honor of fall's arrival and the holidays right upon us, we want to invite you to stop by and grab some of your favorite rolled goods to enjoy during these picturesque evenings.  Just imagine yourself there on your porch or out in your backyard as the warm orange glow of a another day peacefully fades behind ever-emptying tree lines and billows of pleasant smoke as you puff away on that special cigar that makes you smile inside.   Sounds great doesn't it?  Makes you want to go light up right now!  Well, at least it makes me want to.

How about making 10 minutes of your week set aside to stop by Goodfellas on Main Street Thomasville to get something to fill out this picture.  With Perdomo cigars scorching up the market, we've added more sizes for you to try.  Grab one and then let us know your thoughts.
