I'm a firm believer in the buddy system, no cigar should travel alone!

Mine showed expected delivery today but it hadn't been received in at the Albuquerque hub yet. Maybe tomorrow.

Mautrak · 09/03/2015 06:20 PM

Yeah, the Post Office is playing games with mine as well. Their website still shows expected delivery by yesterday, but the package didn't come again today. The USPS website shows the package was still about five hours from me as of midnight last night.

But with fingers crossed (which makes typing tough), I'll get lucky and it'll show up tomorrow.

Mine arrived...thanks for the traveling buddy! More yummy tobacco to enjoy!

Sorry guys. Especially frustrating that Jeremy doesn't have his yet, he's a 3 hour drive from where I mailed these! Hopefully tomorrow so you have them for the weekend.

Received my yesterday. Thanks for the bonus stick Gary, and thanks again for sponsoring this GC.

Mautrak and Neal, the packages are finally in your zip codes, looking good for today.

Mautrak · 09/04/2015 11:59 AM

Mine was delivered today in good shape, along with company. Thanks, brother!

ntanner · 09/04/2015 12:07 PM

Mine arrived as well. Thanx for the ride along also.

Critique is in. My thanks to Gary for making this possible.

headfirst · 09/09/2015 05:23 AM

Thanks guys. Just smoked my first of these last night, a little underwhelming considering the retail price tag, very curious to see what you all thought...thanks for stepping up and getting the critiques done quickly.

junglepete · 09/09/2015 02:16 PM

Smoked and reviewed...putting it in the system right now. Thanks Gary!!

Mautrak · 09/09/2015 05:38 PM

Reviewed and submitted. Thanks for letting me be a part, Gary.

The review speaks for itself, and I won't give away any clues here. But I will say that I haven't done a review in many months, and had a lot of fun doing this one. It's a cigar designed to be paired with a light whiskey, and I paired it with three different whiskeys over the duration of the cigar, and had a blast doing so. Thanks!

headfirst · 09/09/2015 05:48 PM

Awesome Jeremy, thanks man, glad you had fun with it.

headfirst · 09/15/2015 12:22 PM

Interesting to read your reviews guys, thanks.

Mautrak · 09/15/2015 01:27 PM

Thanks again, Gary. It looks like all of us had the same impression. A good solid cigar, if you're looking for a mild cigar. Probably not up the alley of most of the members on this site, but a fine cigar for what it is trying to accomplish. That was my goal in my review - not necessarily to review how much I liked it, but rather to review how well it accomplished its intended goal.
