First ever (UK) box buy...

[UncleJoe]

I ordered a box of 25 Hoyo Epicure No.2s the other day from the lovely chaps and chapesses at CGars and it suddenly dawned on me that it was the first ever box I've bought in the UK... I've bought one or two boxes when I lived in Spain before but they were always 10s at most and more often than not, I'd buy a few packs of 5 as it worked out cheaper at the time for some reason. Anyway, will post pics when the box arrives, which is all I can do for now as the missus has banned me from smoking for another few weeks

Congratulations, se?or uncle!

We're all proud of you!

and your gonna be a good boy and listen? The Hoyo Epicure 2's seem to get a lot of love so congrats, spose it's another on my ever growing list of to try.

Seriously though, just pull the logic card.... The money is spent now, they are gonna get smoked at some point! I at least need to sample one in case I need to send the box back if there are problems!... Honest my love!!!!

Get an old one!

Now there's a stick that definitely gets better with age. I had a 2004 the other day that I found hiding in don TJ's massive unit and in a word - FAN-F'ING-TASTIC!
(Ummm, don't tell ol' TJ, however)

(Hurumph!) Fan-****-tastic is not a word, you boob! Now move over rover and let El P take over!

Nice work there UJ. How come you're banned from smoking for a while?

[Ethem]

Great first box! Congrats on the purchase buddy

Good choice, enjoy!

Banned? You been naughty have you? :-)

Best of luck with your new box

Although she doesn't like it my wife is very easy going when it comes to cigars - and even takes an interest in them 😊 I clearly a lucky man! 😀

[UncleJoe]

If by "naughty" you mean "overindulge whilst on holiday recently" then yes... And I am indeed going to listen as the missus is highly lovely although does have a habit of breathing fire if provoked in the wrong way (and I wouldn't want to get my new smokes prematurely singed by that...)

Edit: also I just noticed monkey's comment in another thread that 2012 Epi2s are highly regarded. I think someone likes me as the date on the box is Sep 2012.

Ditto! Make things a lot easier 😊

Now I just need to grow a decent beard and I'll be set

Looks good! I have an itch to get another box now, but with it being my wife's birthday next month a fair chunk October's pay cheque is already accounted for! Still, we're off to Germany in November for my grandad's birthday so hopefully I'll get the chance to pick something up while I'm over there 😀

Looking very healthy in there

Cgars are a great firm...I have had two orders from them now in a couple of weeks and they really have a good service!
