Just a friendly reminder: 8 days to get this one smoked and reviewed (due the 25th). Many of you have tomorrow off, so please consider enjoying this as an afternoon cigar!

Are you sure that you didn't hot-box it to try and get it in on time?

Damn, sounds like you got a dud! I put a firework in one but apparently it didn't go off? Sounds like that would have been better!

I enjoyed the few I've had and all performed well, of course one I sent out was a turd!

Very consistent reviews other than McBryde's, but he had witnesses on a herf while he smoked this one. They have since told me that the ash on his cigar blossomed to look like a cartoon cigar that blows up!

Wow - really consistent reviews other than the dud. Thanks for letting me participate.

McBryde · 02/02/2021 09:08 PM

Yeah, everyone else got good ones, but mine was definitely a dud! The cigar ash split and it looked like a Y . Definitely a first for me!

Nick, duds happen! I really appreciate the opportunity to try it, even though it was rough.

Hopefully that pic can be seen by y'all.

Pretty consistent scoring. To bad McBryde got a bad one. I think this is one of the most consistently scored critiques yet aside from the 1 low for the dud.

arrow34 · 02/04/2021 09:19 AM

Yeah... I was on with Emerson while he was smoking it... he tried his best. I am still going to locate one to try out.

Vroomp · 02/04/2021 10:07 AM

Very consistent marks guys~!

I have had a few cigars who's ash open up like a gator's mouth before.

I think it's from a lack of filler and lose binder probably due to the box pressing on this one.

Not sure why the flavors were so off-putting for E, the only thing strong about that cigar for me was a bit of pepper on the nose,,,,

but thanks Nick for the opportunity~!
