My best purchase ever.

Just wanted to share the oldest full box I have. The partagas benji bmp-7a. Box number 609/5000. It was one of my favorite cigars, outside this full box I only have one single sitting in a humidor that I’m planning on smoking soon. This was such a great cigar and probably one of the best benji series, at least in my opinion. I bought this box years ago. I don’t remember what I paid, whatever retail was for them. I do remember it was during a random day trip with my brother to a cigar shop a couple hours north of us, while I was looking at the partagas section I noticed this box sitting behind the others with none on display. I quickly purchased it and as I received my receipt the shop owner walked out and asked “did you just buy those from us?” I told him I did and he said if he knew they were there he wouldn’t have sold them, I made no offer to return them.

    Nice get! Enjoy that last one - as last ones of limited editions seem to be the tastiest - at least , psychologically, to me anyway. Well done!

      I have one single, the box is still full! But I will smoke them very sparingly.
