Why don't cigar manufacturers simply package smokes in a cellophane with an amber yellow tint? It would make the smoke appear well aged, and as we all know IMAGE is everything...

More importantly, WHY would you WANT or even suggest that they do that? One problem that they could have is that if they tinted the cello, it would be a uniform tint and real yellow cello has imperfections. To replicate the imperfections would cost more for the tabacleras to do and probably cost more than printing the bands. Any reputable cigar brand that wishes to maintain a customer base would NEVER try to intentionally mislead their loyal customers anyway.

I’m sorry gang but it's idiotic posts like these that completely blow me away. What kind of moron thinks of stupid crap like this, aside from the fact it is even more mind boggling why one would even post such an embarrassing comment. I know this board has had some boring crap posted lately, but hey, let’s not deface what was a god thing by suggesting some poorly thought out idea that is meant to deceive the consumer. For what possible reason; or better yet, what possible reply were you looking for here Tail-between my legs-gaiter? Were you writing just to write? If so fine, but please share some knowledge with the team not, not this regurgitated diarrhea spew. I know my message will get lost on the weak stomachs who will get caught up in the tone, and I’m sure I’ll catch flack from the same crew as always. Blah, blah, blah… This time however, it just may be the only exciting thing on this board. That’s scary.

well wany, the fact is is that 5 Vegas does use yellow cellophane! Personally I think they look ugly and make the cigars look that way as well.

I think that personally attacking someone because of a comment or observation they make is out of line, wany....I believe in saying what you believe in, but that was too much, IMHO

Well, I certainly stirred up the empty pot otherwise known as Whiny's mind. First of all, I'm not offended. This is, afterall, a free-for-all posting site. My intent was to gather feedback from smokers, not to suggest ideas to manufacturers. How many times has a cigar on this site been labeled as well-aged due solely to the fact that the cello was yello (yes, it was Donovan and not the Beatles). Anyway, Whiny, when was the last time you actually posted a response that WASN'T either a direct attack or a negative comment?? I realize that since this board has gotten flat that you've had little meaning in your life, but please attack me for the right reasons, such as my taste in cigars, my misdirected approach to humor, or even my newly found right-wing views on government. But do not ridicule my intelligence by using words like "idiotic" and "moron", for to do so would be hypocritical...IMHO.

I concur with the masses, Wany quit getting so lit by somebody's comments. If you don't like the post ignore it. All of us here only answer those post we care to. So let it be and be happy.
