    I smoked one last night. I agree with Ken's review of it. It wasn't bad but not great and am looking forward to the process getting it right.
    All right, I'll try one tomorrow to see what it has to offer..

    I didn't purchase and I doubt I will, so not sure if I have a voice here, but I would think the cost would of been less for a rough draft, being that a guy could get a fiver of Diesel UHC's for around the same price.

    I don't know. Four bucks each for a specially made cigar, from the rollers table to my mailbox. Actually, back that last statement up a few years... From the time the seeds were planted. Seems like a fair deal to me, Nobody got rich on this one. It is worth it to me to smoke a cigar that few will ever experience. PM me and I will send you two. One for now and one for later. We can compare notes.

    I'm loyal to this forum and Alex for the platform they've provided us. I'll be honest, I probably won't like it, none of it was what I wanted from I remember, but I will damn sure enjoy smoking it and have no problem paying $25 for a fiver. This is a perfect example of the brotherhood. For all the money I've spent on bombs, gifts, trades, ad whatever else I've paid postage for the last year or so, the cost is nothing. Now...can we add some San Andreas please =]

    To give this stick a fair shake, how long should it rest? I just got mine and plan on letting them sit for at least a month (although I am temped to grab one). Fire a second in about 2 mos and so on..... what is everyone else planning?

    Not sure what Loyalty has to do with this,, All I said is I was surprised they were as much as they were ,,,,,so am I to understand from the comments that you guys would of purchased the sticks regardless of the price?? (I Guess out of Loyalty???) or ( just to have a limited release)

    they made the blend for us by us, so that's why I'm willing to pay a reasonable price for it. Would I buy it at $7-$10 a stick? I'd think twice as I am not a huge AJ fan anymore. When you consider how much BOTL blends are going for, that's reasonable IMO.

    Kid I think Im with you here, or at least we're both in the same ballpark. I TOTALLY appreciate them doing this for us, its a cool thing and way to feel involved. This said, it is a company and while we benefit from this----so do they because we will buy the sticks and continue our usual sales in the process...not to mention just the idea is good word of mouth advertising for CCom. This is why I don't understand they, at times, blind loyalty to the place. Believe me it is appreciated, but its a business decision and a money maker----no one is losing on this on our behalf.

    Hey, win-win are the best kind of deals. I think $4-5 is fair for a "sample run" of smokes. Even if I dont like it, I think it's neat to have one. Just me though, and I can definitely understand anyone not wanting to lay down bucks on a stick that may not be good. You are absolutely right, ccom certainly will benefit (otherwise they wouldnt be doing it!!).

    I'll let them rest, smoke a few, THEN will give some feedback. Thinking its going to be "perfect" is asking a bit much. I'm just thankful that Alex even thought of us. And in my opinion the price is right.

    We could only buy fivers. That being said, let's wait a few days and see if yours delivers. If not...well then, you know what happens next.
