The Cigar: Warped Lirio Rojo 2019
The Specs:
Wrapper: Nicaragua
Binder: Nicaragua
Filler: Nicaragua
Country of Origin: Nicaragua
Strength: Medium-Full
Size: 6.38" x 42
Due Date: September 25, 2020
The Hype: Lirio Rojo translates to "red lilly" from Spanish. The 2019 limited release of the Lirio Rojo is a new size, a 6 3/8 x 42 lonsdale vitola rolled with a 109 cap, which is basically a combination of a belicoso cap and a normal cap. In previous years, this cigar was only produced in a corona vitola. However, while the vitola size and the cap used on the cigars were changed for 2019's release, other details remained the same (i.e. the blend remained a Nicaraguan puro that was sold in cabinets of 50 without bands.)

And you are by far the closest to me. I could have practically hand delivered that one to you...?????
Critiques should be due on 9/25, but lets make it 9/26 to give you all the extra Saturday to get this done. That's a little more than 2 weeks from now. Enjoy!

I just tracked it. It is ridiculous.
Went from me, to Des Moines (flew right over the top of you), then skipped you again and went back to Chicago Distribution...
I hope it gets to you soon. If not, we will figure something out.
Still out in USPS space, no box for me yet. :biggrin:
You can come to the cigar lounge I work at on Saturday and hand deliver it. It's called the Drawing Room 318 2nd St. E Davenport Iowa. I work from 4 to 10 :biggrin: :biggrin:
Mine landed today, thanks for the guardians!
E
I am going to send out a new one tomorrow for Byron as the package went to Des Moines from here and then back to a facility in Chicago and has been sitting there for 6 days.
Cliff Clavin would be mad https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o2pN40F4NvQ

Replacements have been delivered. Let me know that you got them okay.
As for the original...it's floating around the midwest now. :confused:
David I got the package and it was put up for some rest. Sorry I didn't respond a bit sooner. :biggrin:

Don't rest it too long, the review is due September 26. ;-)
Resting for me is only about a day :biggrin:
Just a quick reminder that the review is due in 5 days gents.
Happy smoking.
Is there a link for the review system? I looked on the review page but didn't see a link to post my review.
Thanks Ron
David the long haul box as arrived, what do you want me to do with it?

Ron, on the front page at the top of Geek Critique box, Click All Geek Critiques. Then click View All Geek Critiques at bottom of that box. Then hit enter Geek critique, A drop down menu appears, and you enter it there.
The only snag is that SenorPablo has to authorize you access. I've sent him a PM to enable you. If you don't have access, I'll PM you as soon as he enters you in. Let me know.
My review as been submitted Bruce, and thank you David for the chance to smoke this cigar. :biggrin:

I plan on getting it done tonight or tomorrow night. AZ hasn't cooled down like I was anticipating, so cigar smoking opportunities have been limited.
Friendly reminder: Due tomorrow. I extended this an extra day to give you Saturday. Only 2 have been submitted so far.
:smoker:
I'll get mine done tomorrow.

Mine is done, and I squeaked in, maybe.

Yeah, I know. He's been trying to convince me on chat today that its late because "he forgot". :goodluck:
Believe it or not I did forget. I really don't give a s**t if you are convinced. I was not going to smoke it on the herf Emerson after already having 3 cigars. Hardly would have been a fair critique. About to fire it up now and get this drama over with.
Done.
