OK folks, now please don't laugh me off the board on this one.

I'm looking for a source for Wolf Bros. rum crooks cigars.

I smoked these puppies as a "yard gar" for more than a decade. I REALLY liked them. Normally I would pick them up at a gas station, liquor store, etc. Now, I can't find them anywhere, and I sure miss 'em.

An internet search would indicate these still exist, but I've never heard of any of these on-line sources, so I'm hesitant.

Can someone point me to a good, legit, trusted source for these?

Thanks in advance for any help.

which sources have them? maybe I've heard of them.

have you asked the local cigar store to order them for you?

have you checked the local drug stores? Walgreens carries them in some areas. And drug stores will often order things for customers if you ask.

You and wesley need to do a group buy.

not quite the same but are they maybe close enough?

It's been a while since I've seen a catalog, but I thought Thompson's carried this brand.

if they do, its not on their website. I looked, my computer hasn't been the same since, but I looked.

I kept searching on the internet and found a message from an east coast retailer that said:

"The manufacturer has gone out of business."

A tear rolled down my cheek...

I can't imagine that you were really surprised.

If there is anything that we learned over the last 3 weeks, it is that the icons of our youth, good, bad, indifferent, will be missed when they are lost, and the sentimental feelings of loss on one hand will be seen as ridiculous by others.

I'd tell you go get over it, and just buy the swishers, but seriously, that would be sort of like telling an MJ fan to get over it, and watch some Gary Coleman reruns.

does national cigar make flavored cigars? they make Ibold and many many other 'drug store' brands. They were Indiana's cigar industry.

There are those ones from Fincks.

I haven't seen toppers lately either... oy
