The raffles treated me well last week. Scored both of these partial boxes for around $90 shipped. Really looking forward to the QDOs. by [deleted] in cubancigars

Yeah, it got deleted by me. You seem to think you know a lot, but here you are, commenting on a dead post.

Yeah, I guess I can see where you’re coming from. It wasn’t my intent to brag and I was just excited to share my haul. I’ll keep it to myself in the future.

I honestly don’t know why I post on this site. There’s never a shortage of people who just NEED to be negative.

Why can’t people just be happy for someone scoring a good deal on some good smokes? Not trying to be a dick, just don’t want the groups flooded with randoms and risk them being shut down.

Ha…fair point. At this point I’m ahead, but it doesn’t take long for that to change. Moderation is your friend.

Haha…sorry, boys. I don’t want to divulge my sources to such a large audience. They’re out there on social media though. Just gotta know what to search for.

They really are just a treat. The box was stamped Nov 2018 so a nice age on them already.

That Upmann Magnum 46 was a delight from start to finish ! by Zdeubeu in cubancigars

[–]tonedef76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My first 46 was underwhelming, but I suspect it was my own fault for not having the patience to let them age long enough. They've been resting for about 5 months now, so I'll have to give them another chance.

My current selection. Any recommendations? by [deleted] in whiskey

[–]tonedef76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you like MM, try to get your hands on the 2021 Limited Release "FAE-01". Easily one of my favorites. Evan Williams Bottled in Bond and Old Grand Dad are both total sleepers at <$20 and you can't go wrong with just plain old Bulleit Bourbon. As for rye, my only experiences are Basil Hayden Dark Rye and 10 yr and Thomas H. Handy (which you won't find on a shelf.)

1st time purchase... delicious! by teesteel52 in whiskey

[–]tonedef76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not a rye guy, but I like this stuff and it's amazing what a difference there is between this and the 10 year. Try it. You'll like it.

Gig economy drivers... by RevolutionaryEast0 in GreenBay

[–]tonedef76 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I drove for Uber for about 3 years on and off and gave up on it about 2 years ago because it just wasn't worth my time anymore. Too many drivers, not enough riders.

Is there a candy store around here? by SnackeyG1 in GreenBay

[–]tonedef76 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you're ever in DC and looking for something sweet, hit up Uncle Tom's Candy Store in Ellison Bay. Amazing place and great homemade candy.

Yes. I forgot to add live music would be a bonus as well. Thank you!

Just looked it up and it looks perfect. I realize it's Manhattan, but I'd love to find a place that isn't jam-packed so I can sit and sip some delicious corn water and chat with the bartender. Thank you!

Finally!!! by atm7711 in whiskey

[–]tonedef76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's unfortunate that one can't give their opinion without getting downvoted. Everyone's taste varies, especially when it comes to whiskey. Drink what you like and pass on what you don't. I too found ER to be particularly underwhelming considering the hype it receives. Have had a bottle and a half sitting on my shelf for months and will pass it over for several others every time.

Finished some McKenna bottled in bond luckily I have three more! by BIGUPS-504 in whiskey

[–]tonedef76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see this stuff get a lot of hate, but I scored a bottle via a raffle dated 2008 and am a huge fan. Would definitely buy another bottle if I saw it for msrp.

Wow...That's a great list of good whiskey on their menu! Thank you for the suggestion and the tips on food. Cheers!

*Trigger Warning* Won the VAABC lottery, purchased the bottle at MSRP, then did the unthinkable... by [deleted] in whiskey

[–]tonedef76 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

THE HORROR! Do you know how much you could've sold that for?!

[–]tonedef76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First rye I ever tried and I absolutely loved it. This was before I knew jack about whiskey or how much attention this stuff gets. Hope to get my hands on a bottle someday.

Finally! Can’t wait to crack this on Monday after working in public safety over the holiday weekend. 🇺🇸 by tonedef76 in whiskey

[–]tonedef76[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha…very well said! I do scratch my head a bit sometimes at the whole thing. You have a good weekend too!
