webmost: Gray4lines:I visited a local roller's shop in ybor last March. They were pretty good cigars, and they have a website you can order from. I can find it if you want to give em a try. I appreciate, but no way. I am so overloaded now I don't know what to do. Pulled yet another cooler out of the shed this week. Two coolers full of leaves, another box of leaves not unpacked, a hundred count humi full of premiums, a smaller humi holding the fire cured stuff, another cooler holding the home made sticks... So far beyond simply obsessive it's ridiculous. Then there's ten more boxes from FX Smiths Sons on the closet shelf... almost forgot those. To make things worse, I recently started a regimen of rolling three cigars a day. Figure the best way to get adept at it is to practice daily like a musical instrument. So those are stacking up. Got to where I crave the home rolled more often than the store bought. Listen, I got to thank you guys, when I had my birthday drumroll contest, for heeding my instructions and not shooting back major batches of bombage. Can't hardly walk thru the home office as is. But these Don Benignos are gems. I tell you what. Little ice chest holding the stuff people sent me from the drumroll contest... I did forget that. And the canister here at the office holding the machine mades I take down to the old bridge some days at lunch time. Keep this up I'm gonna kill myself smoking.

But you can never have too many! Hey, I just smoked one of the home-rolled you sent me. It was the original bazooka from your first batch. Pretty damn good! I was impressed (not that I doubted you). I will post a review of it.
FireRob:Edna, I my self have bought two box's of those Havana's and a few 5 pks. Been stocking up on all the old Camacho I can while it's still available. If you want something a little stronger but not too bad but I deff say more so then the Havana be sure to try the new Equador. Glad I could help sway you to the Camacho side.

Whats so special about the old Camacho's that make you feel its necessary to stock them? Something lacking in the new ones?

AshMe:^^^ Ah OK. Thanks for the explanation.
FireRob: AshMe:^^^ Ah OK. Thanks for the explanation. Yep, basically what Bob said. Most of the old ones are slightly different then the new and several blends were discontinued. I personally have been a big fan of the current Crillio and had it before my first older Havana. When I got serious about cigars (about a year ago) most of the switch over had already taken place. Seems like most sites are selling off all the old stuff right now so I have been picking up what I can. I'd like to be able to try every Camacho and there are several that still elude me. Recently I was lucky to get my hands on a Select from the devil site. That story is posted a page or two back in this thread.
webmost: I did? When? Original bazooka? I got much better at it now. My memory is going bonkers. Lessee... where was I going with this... Can't remember... Oh. Yeah. Send me your addy I'll shoot you the latest. Still about a year from prime time skills, way I reckon; but I need to unload some anyways. Smoked Blend # 2 last night, from DIYpete over at FTT forum. As fine a flavor and as good a burn as anything you could buy for eight bucks from a well stocked walk in humidor with a knowledgeable clerk. It works.

Your "unicorn" cigar would be the old Camacho Face Off then lol, if you don't know what I'm referring to Kuzi can fill you in.

Kentucky. Baccy farmer I know up the road from you fire cured some leaves, I sent them to FX Smoths Sons up here, rolled them for a fellow in Pittsburgh, I sent you some. I still have a fair batch of them if you like them. I was on a fire cured kick there briefly. No idea why I stopped smoking them. One of those flukes of human nature where something works and you stop doing it. I could not roll worth a crap back then. I'd be ashamed for you to smoke those knobbly cheroots. I should get you some better sent out. Tell me if you like the fire cured so I know whether to include some of those.

They smell stronger than they taste ...just a little smokey kick. Perfect. I havent had a ky fired cured from drew estate, so I cant compare directly, but from the reviews ive heard yours likely kicks DE's @ss. A lttle different, but I enjoyed yours more than the spectre too.
