I haven't seen anything pop up about the yearly Round Robin episode. Is the interest in this episode flagging or has no one thought about putting it together again! For the new guys...the Round Robin is a process whereby you get three unbanded cigars identified only by number, letter or name sent you by an assigned partner. The cigars are one of high quality, one of medium quality, and a dog rocket. YOUR mission, if you decide to accept it, is to do the best you can to identify the unknown cigars, classify them as to relative worth, country of origin, the specific tobaccos used in the blend, which field they came from and so on and so forth...not that it ever gets to that point!


It's a lot of fun and MAY be very humbling for those who think they know EVERYTHING about cigars! :)


What say? Shall we do it again?

Heh! It's over ALL our heads! Part of the fun is making a fool of yourself when you identify the dog rocket as the high priced cigar! It's happened more than a few time!

By someone, I meant anyone, but I do have complete faith in your abilities to put on a kick arse Round Robin pass!  :biggrin:  :angel:

I'd be in for sure. I'll play although I have nothing more to offer this Pass than me making a fool of myself, which I enjoy doing.

I smoke cigars because I like what they taste like, whatever that is. I do reviews sometimes and enjoy doing them, but for a person as deeply affected by ADHD as me, it isn't a simple matter. I've been smoking cigars for more than 30 years now (never as many cigars as in the the past 10 tough) but I don't feel I know more about cigars that when I started. I must have learned it but somehow I forgot....look, a squirrel.
