We need one more reviewer, preferably someone who has done 2 or less Critiques this year and who isn't doing one in October or November.

I'll touch base with Mark to see if he minds shipping to the GWN.

The wrapper on these cigars is stunning,  looks oily and delicious.

Mark owns the brand.  I don't believe they are an exclusive to his shop, though.

That was fast, got it (them) today. That will give them time to acclimate to their new (temporary) home.

Mark "Just" couldn't send the review stick alone though, he sent a big part of the line up along. I seldom get to smoke that many vitolas of the same line and I have to say I enjoy doing so, even more so when I can take my time with them and compare experiences. I'll get to do just that, thanks again to Mark.

If I'm not mistaken I got the Corona Gorda, Robusto, Toro and the Churchill for the review. Here they are

Jay and Brian your boxes went out today.

Me and Michael have a trade going on. I'll send his when I send his end of the trade here in a couple of days.
