What cigars were we given at Cigar Fest 2007

Do any of you MoFo's have any idea as to all these cigars we received at the Festival?

I think someone might have some kind of a list?
I sure don't have the energy or motivation to try to figure out what we were given but I really would like to know what some of these are...

All I know is I filled the C-Fest Humi and another (larger)desk top I had free, and that is AFTER I'd smoked a few!!!

Many I know to be, and the rest look to be top quality.

As soon as I get done freezing them, I'll take some pictures and give my total count.
As to the specifics as to what they are, that would take too much work.

45 total cigars, Just smoked the first one.
A Camacho, I believe it was a corojo Churchill. Not a bad cigar.... Not great though!

Tommy if your anal enough to be freezing the damn things then putting a list together should be a walk in the park!

The Camacho Corojos get better with a year or two of humi time and the only cigar that I smoked from all the sticks that we got was the CAO Maduro that I smoked at the event to receive the CAO Black afterwards when you showed them your cigar nub........

I am going to say that as a whole, we received some pretty damn good, top of the line cigars from each of the companies, as well as those in the humi. For instance:

Graycliff G2
AVO (2 - Domaine and Regular line)
RP Sungrown
EO 601 Conn
Fonseca Habana Sellecion
VS Series 55 Corojo (biggest surprise so far - it was tasty)
CAO Black
CAO Maduro
K Hansotia Triple Ligero X3
5 Vegas Limitada
Perdomo Golf
Padilla Habana
Oliveros XL
Camacho Select
Perdomo ESV 91
Alec Bradley MAXX
Torano Virtuoso
DE Chateau Real (2)
Cibao
Conn Yankee
Cu Avana
Helix
Cusano 18
Cusano 10th Anniv
Felipe Power
Gran Habano Conn
Some gigantic Gurhka
IT Ltd Reserve
La Arome de Cuba (2)
LGC Cor Gorda
La Aurora
Leon Jimenes
Don Diego Playboy
Puros Indios
RyJ Viejo
Slow-Aged Lot 826 by Perdomo
REO

That is what I can remember (and went down the CI brands chart).

Yes, some less than stellar ones, but many of these cigars I have never had, prolly would not have bought, but those I have smoked have been surprisingly good...

I am sure I missed several, but this is a good snapshot....
