Forum Blend Finalization

Alex SvensonAlex Svenson BlogAdministrator, Everyone, ForumsAdministrator, Moderator, Owners, Registered Users Posts: 1,204
Okay, here is what was decided thus far.

Wrapper: Habano Ecuador Oscuro

Binder: ???

Filler 1: Habano Ometepe

Filler 2: Habano Condega

Filler 3: San Andres

The third filler was a close call between Panama, San Andres and Jalapa. We are very close to a great blend. if I may, I would like to suggest making the binder San Andres instead of Filler 3 since it makes a great binder and slot Filler 3 with Jalapa which was a close contender in the voting. I think this will really please everyone given the votes and filler 3 and will actually make one hell of a cigar (although a little esteli would really round it out if we wanted a fourth filler). Please let me know your thoughts.

    I think the SA binder and the Jalapa filler sounds like a good call... I haven't voted much on this, but it's looking like a pretty cool blend

    You're the Pro. I go with what you suggest. 4 is my lucky number anyway. Can't wait to try this.

    Sounds good to me, you're the pro! BTW wasn't the wrapper supposed to be sumatra, not habano?
  • JDHJDH Everyone, Registered Users Posts: 2,107
    .........and if we could get this in a 6 x 46 corona gorda........wouldn't that be great!

    And/or something in a Perfecto. I think it would add to the complexity.
  • bbass2bbass2 Everyone, Registered Users Posts: 1,056
    The size/strength was the first vote. Alex said it will be a sampler with toro, torpedo, and lancero.

    Agree on the perfecto but you need better rollers for that and might cost more to get it done. I would love perfectos or belicosos.

    Alex, do what you think best. We helped with direction but you know what you are doing.

    Also sounds good to me, Alex, do what you do. and yeah good call bbass, the wrapper was supposed to be sumatra.
  • VulchorVulchor Everyone, Registered Users Posts: 4,176
    Indeed----wrapper is Sumatra (Ecuadorian Oscuro)----------------as far as the rest Im good with whatever everyone decides.

    Alex, your giving me the feeling your changing this stuff because you have some "limited edition" Quorums you want us to think was our personal blend;)
  • VulchorVulchor Everyone, Registered Users Posts: 4,176
    The Kid:
    I thought the vote was for copan as the 3rd filler
    http://www.cigar.com/cs/forums/AddPost.aspx?PostID=479096&Quote=True
    I believe there was a revote or change with the 3rd Kid. The wrapper is supposed to be Ecuadorian Oscuro Sumatra though
  • GoatmilkGoatmilk Everyone, Registered Users Posts: 200
    I've left all the voting to the people here who are much wiser than I when it comes to this stuff. I just want to get my hands on the finished product.

    I don't think so. I just don't buy that.
  • VulchorVulchor Everyone, Registered Users Posts: 4,176
    A little joke my friend, that is all.
  • Roberto99Roberto99 Everyone, Registered Users Posts: 1,077
    Yes Alex. lets do that including the 4th filler.
  • NightHawkNightHawk Everyone, Registered Users Posts: 246
    Yes let's go with the 4thfiller !

  • puffmasterpuffmaster Everyone, Registered Users Posts: 252
    How do you order? Any pre sale going on?
  • bbass2bbass2 Everyone, Registered Users Posts: 1,056
    No way to order yet since the blend hasn't technically been finalized. I haven't heard anything official, but I would expect Alex will let us know the sampler details, price, and ordering info when they're made and close to shipping time.
  • ENFIDLENFIDL Everyone, Registered Users Posts: 5,836
    This is quite exciting
  • VulchorVulchor Everyone, Registered Users Posts: 4,176
    We should ensure this keeps getting bumped up.

    Seeing as how I know as much about blending cigars as performing surgery, I'll defer to you - san andres binder, jalapa as the third filler and esteli as the fourth
