This Geek Critique has been generously sponsored by Adwinistrator (Ryan)

The Cigar: This will be a BLIND REVIEW

The Specs:  :confused:
But we'll tell you this much so you can decide if you want to volunteer to review this or not:
Strength: Mild-Medium
Size: Corona Grande

Due Date: November 26, 2022

The Hype:  :drool:

Shipping: Anywhere

The Reviewers: Initially Veteran status or higher. Preference to those members not already doing the November critique, but all will be considered. If you are interested, please indicate so in the forum below and we will select the five (5) reviewers from the volunteers.

Chosen Reviewers:
1. appollo
2. nirab
3. headfirst
4. metalhead y cigarguy
5. ntanner

Note: A reviewer who posts their review late will receive neutral feedback. A reviewer who does not post at all will receive negative feedback. There are always exceptions to the rule and a reasonable excuse for tardiness or a no show will be respected and thus not counted against the reviewer. Our sponsoring members and our administrators make the choice of who is to participate in any particular Geek Critique and can be better informed of their choices with this initiative in place.

Thanks again to Adwinistrator for providing the cigar. And thank you to the reviewers.

Hey! How come Habana is written on here with a Sharpie ?!?

A day without whiskey is like . . . just kidding, I have no idea!

Ryan,I've done my fair share so far this year but if you run short I would throw my hat in.

nirab

I have done a few this year, so call me in off the bench if needed... :biggrin:

I did the October one this year so far.  I'm interested but can yield to others that haven't done one recently.

It's only been forever since I've done one of these, so I'll through my hat in the ring if you'll let this "old timer" participate.

Just need one more, someone step on up.  This is a cigar I think you will appreciate smoking so don't be shy.

ntanner

I'll fill in the 5th spot if there are no objections.
I am not concerned about what you think as I can tell you don't do it often.

Reminder: Since the review is blind, just enter you critique under whatever cigar you think it is, and I will fix it before we disclose the cigar.

Also, lets extend the deadline to December 1 to give everyone a few more days to enjoy the cigar.

Took possession of mine this afternoon.  Thought I was going to have to fight the postmaster that ornery old bag of bones.
Thanks for the escorts.
