I posted this in the Cigars & related like a dufus. :(

I don't even know if they are of interest to anyone.
They are Cohiba 4" cigars.
I didn't care for them and was able to give away most of them, but still have these 4 left.
I hate to toss them if someone like Cohiba brand.
Anyway, let me know and I will ship them off.
e-mail is tm at batauto dot com

Cool.
BTW, thanks for the headsup on the Baccarat cigars.
I do like them. Even if some folks consider them cheap. ;)

It ain't "cheap" if you like it. ;-)

One man's trash is another's treasure.

I plan on trying one of the Baccarat Casino Vintage I got sometime soon. Glad I could help.

By the way...

That I know of, there are three different brands of Cohiba.

The non-ISOM "Red Dot" Cohibas have a cream colored band with word COHIBA on it with the inside of the letter O colored red, hence their name, "Red Dots"

The Cuban brand has a band with the top half being a black and white square grid, the bottom half yellow, and COHIBA in black letters inside a white triangle in the middle. Looks sorta like this (forgive the bad ASCII art).

################
####--------####
####|COHIBA|####
| |------| |
|______________|

The second non-ISOM Cohiba brand looks almost like that, except that the black-and-white grid on the top half of the band has round white spots instead of square ones.

I've heard there's a third non-ISOM brand called Cohiba, but I don't know what it looks like.

Maybe that could help narrow it down a bit. Sorry if my descriptions were a lil' confusing.

I meant white rectangle, not triangle.

Okay, now I know I'm tired.

I'll stop spamming the boards now, I'm off to bed.

I agree.
I have a sweet tooth, so any of the sweeter tasting cigars I have a tendency to like, hence the favortism towards the cameroon cigars.
Although, there are some dandy full flavor cigars I do like. I am still learning what is what and most of the cigars I have that are "quality" have been given to me.

Damn you, sherpamills, you're getting some good stuff!

That type of non-ISOM Cohiba is great, really full-bodied, and isn't overpriced like the "Red Dot" Cohibas (of which the XV Extra Vigoroso line that you just described is a part of).

By the way, zero

ISOM stands for "Island South Of Miami"

It's just a sneaky way of saying "Cuban"

sherpamills,
Got the package today.
I have some catching up to do to make up the extras you sent.
While they may be everyday cigars to you, I do know I like the A. fuente and the Sherpa smells soooooo good. :)

Too Cool!!!
Thank you so much.
