http://www.cigargeeks.com/index.php?action=articles;sa=view;article=42

If you accept this invitation please respond with your commitment here in this thread and then again when you receive the cigar.

The due date to have this cigar smoked and reviewed is January 10, 2014.

Thanks again to Ted for making this happen, and especially so with such a rare cigar!!...and HUGE ONE  

[LawDaddy]

Absolutely!

[Ted]

I wanted to share the wealth with my newb brothers!  Michael took care of a newb pass, which is something I've been wanting to try for awhile.  I thought others from the pass who had not been scheduled for a critique in 2014 might be interested in something new as well.  If someone is not interested (no worries), please let me know ASAP and we'll ask another newb!

Obviously this is coming up QUICK, so I will ship sticks as soon as people commit.  I just picked them up Monday (currently storing in the box with boveda packs in my hotel at 67 degrees).  I want to get them out ASAP to give them plenty of time to acclimate in your humidors.

LawDaddy, I'll ship yours out when I get home on Monday.  Thanks for participating!!!

[LawDaddy]

Thank you for inviting me.

[Ntxsage]

Awesome Ted! Great cigar selection and I like your thinking on choosing the reviewers.

[Joelala]

[The Burn Ward]

Shhs, you were not supposed to tell them that  But its hard to smoke one and then not have another one laying around

I feel the same way. I always like the idea that I can get another. With that said, I know you'll have a hard time bringing flame to some of the cigars I'll send you.

[Ted]

Hahahaha

Hope everybody enjoys these. Still haven't tried one yet.  Really wishing I had bought more.

[gpd4]

I'd love to do it!  Thanks!

[nwb]

Great cigar - looking forward to the reviews!

[kxthor911]

I'd be interested in doing this if you will have me.

[Ted]

In!  I'll ask Pete to update.

I will send out everybody's sticks Tuesday.

[kxthor911]

Thanks buddy, you will be in mine as well, although I'm not sure yet what the cigar will be. I'm going to have to smoke this early, since I might be working alot, but I will make sure I give it the time it deserves in the humi first. Thanks for giving us the chance to do this. Who backed out?

[Ted]

No worries.  johncw won't be able to make it.

Thanks for the offer of joining your CG, but I think I need to wait a little while.  Most of the newbs here are just new to the site.  I'm new to cigars as well, so have not yet gotten a refined palette.  I know what I like, but I would have no idea how to grade anything yet with limited experience.  For now, the 5 star review section is probably my limit!  

Thanks though!

[ThinBlueLine]

Way to slither your way into that one Nick...enjoy!

[Ted]

Sticks have shipped!  Please post when you receive them, or if they get lost on the way.
