The Cigar: Kristoff Maduro Lancero (7.5 x 40)
The Hype: The Kristoff Maduro is the extension of Kristoff's first and popular cigar, the Kristoff Criollo. Unlike the Criollo, however, the Maduro features a, you guessed it, a maduro wrapper (more specifically, a Brazilian maduro wrapper). And like the original Kristoff Criollo, the Kristoff Maduro offers notes of toasted almond, hints of spice and a sweet finish. The addition of a rich, oily Brazilian Maduro wrapper over Cuban seed Dominican and Nicaraguan tobaccos adds wonderful undertones of earth and licorice, producing an immensely enjoyable and balanced smoking experience.

Thanks again to Stephen for taking this one on and providing the cigar. THANKS!! And happy smokin' :smoker2:
I like maduros I would be game if needed :-)
I'd love to review if there is room.
It looks like you have 5 now. If anyone falls out, I'll be an alternate.

Okay Emerson, you're in on this one.
As for the two Canadian volunteers, sorry guys, this one is on a bit of a time constraint and the sponsor wants to be sure there are no issues that might jeopardize the due date. My apologies.
Well, heck. I've never seen a Kristoff I didn't like so pencil me in for slot No. 5 if it hasn't been taken already.
You're in Ken. Thanks.
These are shipping today fellas. Enjoy!

Anyone gotten these yet? Mine have not landed yet, and we have 9 days until the review is supposed to be in. Just curious!?

I got mine in the morning mail along with a 601 Green Label robusto...thanks for the 601, Stephen. The squeeze is on! :biggrin:
Stephen handed me mine over the weekend. Thanks, brother. I'll do my best to find a night to smoke it this week, but a 5 day deadline is a bit unrealistic.
Not sure what is happening here...I see a post that the cigars were delivered on the 23rd of sept. Does anyone still not have their cigar?
Everyone has them now.
Review submitted. Thanks again Stephen for including me on this one.
I smoked mine this afternoon. I'll get the critique in before the drop dead date.
Review is in. Thanks again Stephen for asking me to do the review.
Mission Complete! Thanks for letting me review this one, Stephen.
I can't submit my damn review!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! keep getting an error, have tried it many times now, have a PM in to Peter, but haven't heard anything yet.

Sorry for not getting back to you sooner. I have been away. Hopefully all is resolved.
Yes sir, Pablo got it all taken care of!
