Good morning and welcome to Day 8. Before I announce the Day 7 winner, let me address a few items. First, Jason O asked in a comment if my daughter was named after the La Aurora brand, and the answer is no. She predates may cigar fascination by a few years, however that first box purchase was definitely influenced by the name. The box may be around somewhere and she may have it. <sarcasm>Second, kudos to Cigar Aficionado for naming a cigar that has been in manufacture for almost 80 years as the cigar of the year<\sarcasm>. Shouldn’t consistency be a criteria? Or availability? Sheesh. Anyway, you want to to know who won the La Aurora 107 Maduro Coronas, and that person is Jeff K! Please send me your address so I can pass it on to Señor Stein. Thanks to Miami Cigar and Co. and La Aurora for everything! Let’s get Thursday rolling!
Day 8
Today’s present comes to us courtesy of La Palina Cigars. La Palina is owned by Bill Paley, and is the resurrection of his grandfather’s brand. Bill’s father, incidentally, is the founder of Columbia Broadcasting System. The point is, Bill has some roots in the cigar business, and is making some darned tasty cigars. The winner of today’s present will receive a box of La Palina Classic Gordo. The Gordo is a 6″ x 60 featuring a Brazilian Habano wrapper, Ecuador binder and Nicaraguan and Dominican fillers. These are always welcome in my humidors.
Thanks to Courtney at La Palina for providing today’s present! You know what to do now!
