Terrific!  Just a reminder, the due date is October 25th.  That gives you 4 full weekends to get this smoked and critiqued.   :smoker:

Hey! How come Habana is written on here with a Sharpie ?!?

A day without whiskey is like . . . just kidding, I have no idea!

Also, if nobody picked up on it, the "It's a Boy" is a little early, but the new baby boy is supposed to arrive November 29th as of now.
Hey,  you should check out The Herfcast!  It's not about anything in particular,  just talking about whatever comes to mind while smoking cigars and having a drink or 4.

Congrats @bstessl ! I will save it and wait for your announcement come Nov/Dec. Hope all is well with the Mrs. (and you too 😉).

I am not concerned about what you think as I can tell you don't do it often.

I used to be a people person, but then people ruined that for me.

Every loaf of bread is a tragic story of a group of grains that could have become beer but didn't.

Friendly reminder:  The critiques are due in about 2 weeks (Oct 25).  Enjoy the cigar!

Okay, I have my review done and ready to submit. Can someone tell me what I am supposed to select as a brand and type for a blind review?

I believe you're supposed to put it in as what you think the cigar is.

Correct.  I will fix it on the back end before we go live

Ha! I guessed Ghurka knowing that it obviously wasn't. I had no idea what it was. My score may not reflect it but I would smoke it again, probably wouldn't buy it but it wasn't bad.
