Sorry guys, didn't mean to leave this hanging. Couple days of travel caught me.
The pass arrived great. Some slight wrapper damage on the Punch India that Ryan had also caught. Looking to redox, larger Tupperware, out by Thursday

My puts and takes are in, comment period is open

The fact that this has turned so many cigars from the seed list is a tribute to what you put in to start this. Can't say there was one cigar I wouldn't want to try that I haven't already.  

FYI for those not familiar with the Crowned Heads Sanctuary, Jon Huber did a store exclusive for Smoker's Abby in Nashville.  333 boxes of 12, MSRP $12 each. its a 5 1/2 x 52 trunk-pressed robusto extra using an Ecuadorian Sumatra wrapper over a Nicaraguan binder and Nicaraguan fillers. It is being made by Ernesto Perez-Carrillo Jr.’s Tabacalera La Alianza S.A. factory in the Dominican Republic and has been aging for 14 months.

So keeping an eye on the last of the geeks in the pass I have seen that Jeff hasn't logged in since 7/2 does anybody know him personally? Just afraid to send a very very expensive box of cigars out of we don't have verification he's around to participate! I shot him a PM on here and I will also try his email he has listed but until we hear from him let's play it safe, I for sure don't want to lose this pass! Thank you!

I updated the "pass order" and moved Jeff to the bottom until we hear from him! I hope everything is ok! Again just to risky to send the box without any kind of acknowledgement, better safe then sorry! :smoker:

Ok cool that's good to know! Hopefully we hear from him and it's a non-issue, again I hope nothing is wrong and he"s just been busy, we will still wait to hear from him before we send the pass his way, again I moved him to the bottom for now but we can slot him back in once we know he's around to participate!

Again thank you to everyone for being engaged in the pass and posting up! It's always an honor to host this pass here!

Cool! Thanks again Chuck! I got a message from Jeff I think we might just try to set his turn up "Virtually" at the end, since he seems to have a lot going on, and would hate to add more stress, so for now I've left him at the bottom, and I told him once I get the pass back I will go ahead and go the Virtual Swap with him just to make it easier and less stressful on everybody. Thanks again everyone! :smoker: still an amazing pass! Can't wait to see what you do Brian!
