That signature more than made up for any bad stick I've ever had lol it was amazing.
-
yeah, i'm a big fan... that's the only box purchase I have ever made...i'm down to 4 so I may have to look into getting another one
-
just got my package, and western threw in a couple freebies too! thanks man, im doing stick A shortly. "Stick A appeared horribly constructed, and smelled of cat piss and regret. Safe to say, western did as he said he would do, and sent me a white owl" LOL JK
-
If you don't like stick A I disown you as BORK ;p
the 2 extras have only been in my humi for about 2 weeks so you may wanna rest em. -
Alright here goes on Stick A...Well constructed cigar in a toro size, and has a triple cap so I'm thinking a solid premium here. Medium shade to the wrapper, and has the pleasant aroma of a good tobacco. Good draw with lots of creamy smoke that hangs around like an awkward one night stand, but much more enjoyable
The total burn time was around 1hr 45 minutes, and it is something I definitely have not had before. Creamy smoke has a bit of cedar and subtle sweetness to it. I'm taking a shot in the dark here and saying it's...an Ashton Cabinet Series. Now tell me! lol I want to know what this tasty beast was -
Padilla 1932 signature. My absolute favorite stick so far!
-
Wow I was off lol. That was a fantastic stick though, I am really looking forward to the next one!
-
Alright I knocked out stick B today. Lighter wrapper than stick A, robusto size, and not bad construction, but not very firm. Good draw with lots of smoke, and a milder stick than I usually go for, but not without some kick from time to time. Good smoke, but it went out on me around 5/8 of the way through, and wasn't the same after I had to relight it. I did a little comparison to some in my humi, and it looked a lot like some Ccom Cuban labels I have in there, and had a similar flavor, so I'm guessing that is what it was. Probably way off. Yet again. lol

Sol Cubano Cuban Cabinet Connecticut

or that. lol. I'll do stick c tonight, hopefully a better guess on that one.
-
Alright I just finished up the last stick, stick C. It was a figurado with a dark wrapper. It was 5.5 inches with a 52 or 54 ring gauge. I have a few similar sticks in my humi, but I was able to cross them off the list due to small differences in construction. It had a good draw with lots of smoke, but had an irregular burn that I had to fix a couple times. What great flavor though. I have to say, it was a VERY enjoyable smoke, and I'm pretty bummed I only had that one lol. I looked through the entire list of cigars, and now have less of an idea of what it was than when I started lol. So I'm going to guess Matasa 30th anniversary. Now tell me what it really was!
-
RP double maduro and I'll send you all of em I get. I've decided to ban RP in my humi.
-
Sounds good to me haha. So now, who wants to be my mystery stick mooch? If you're quick I might get it out today...
-
I'll give it a shot sir. PM to you.
-
Alright it's going to go out either today or tomorrow
-
So I feel like a huge dumbass right now. I sent the mystery stick package in a Ccom package that was sent to me, and forgot to cross out or rip off the old tag before slapping the new one on. So I spent 5 bucks sending it to myself, and delayed the game. I am resending it, and if someone could post up the facepalm picture, I would really appreciate it :P

Im surprised with all the bombs we send around here this doesnt happen more often! But that is Some Freaking Funny S.H.I.T -
Shouldn't the PO notice that the return label says Bethleham, and that you're sending it out from CA - and question you about that? I dunno, that'd seem like a no-no to me, but I'm no highly trained federal government employee like a PO worker :-P
-
Seriously. I send it, the address on the confirmation says it should be going to denver, and then delivered back to camarillo, CA? I think Newman is my mailmanGadwinDuil:Shouldn't the PO notice that the return label says Bethleham, and that you're sending it out from CA - and question you about that?

LOVE NEWMAN! -
Damn that's funny. I've been looking daily for a package that you sent to yourself. LOL
-
I sent along some other sticks for your troublePoker Slob:Damn that's funny. I've been looking daily for a package that you sent to yourself. LOL -
The mystery stick game is alive and well. Michael (surfingzeeko), got the package to me safe and sound, and threw in a 5 Vegas Miami Knuckle and Oliva Connie. Thanks for the bonus. It is quite a brotherhood we have here. All 3 sticks are very similar in size and color. I don't possess a sophisticated palette like some of you old pros, so this will be difficult indeed. I started with Stick A. A very nicely constructed cigar. Started off with a huge amount of pepper through the nose, but mellowed out nicely after a 1/2 inch or so. Next up was a combo of cedar and leather, that stayed til the half way point, where it turned into leather with a very light hint of coffee. It stayed like this with a slight bit of pepper here and there until the end. A medium-full cigar all the way through. My guess on stick a was between a Padilla Miami and a MOW. I will have to say it was a Padilla Miami. How far off was my guess? Only surfingzeeko knows.

That was actually a gran habano vintage 2002. Hope you like the next one!
-
Stick B pre-light was very similar to the first. Dark brown wrapper, firm in the hand. Construction was good, but not great. Kinda a light sweet barnyard smell to the foot. The draw was decent, and the burn was good. No touching up was needed. It started out with a little pepper through the nose, and a slightly grassy taste. After an inch and a half or so, it switched to light leather with a long dry finish. It never really changed after that. This is a very tough stick to guess...but here is my guess, as wrong as it may be, A Fernandez Siggy.
-
That was a San Cristobal. Now for the final cigar!
-
Damn it! I love the San Cristobal. Although I have only had the pigtail, that is one of my faves. Next smoke coming up soon.
