I took a pic, but had them in their new baggies already and quality is not at that Cacman's level but will get it to the ladies of cbid this weekend.

I should note for those that are not familiar with Johnny-Os, it is my understanding that smoking a few rott is good but shortly after that they will need some rest. Most say they go through a sick period of roughly 6 months or more after delivery.

I noticed we are in same state but opposite directions. I don't get out much during fall and winter months but if your ever in the southern part of NJ like A.C., Wildwood, or Cape May area maybe a miniherf could happen.

Yeah, thanks a lot shaun, will let you know when they drop. I've got some wicked inner ear infection that's completely put me down on cigars probably well into January so the puppies are gonna age for a bit of time before I get into them.

Also, I wanna give a big thanks to Cacman who was being a dïck when I PM'd him about how to contact Johnnie. I would have never ponied up on the order had I not wanted to spite Cac. Later on I did realise he was trying to be a cool guy so now I'm left with only the cigars and no grudge. Beer

^^^ I told you it wasn't hard to figure out for yourself!!! I had to.

Bummer about the ear infection though. By January they may be too far along to try. These are very fresh, and are only good for a couple weeks before going into their sick period. After that, it's best to age at least 1 to 1-1/2yrs. It's recommended to smoke a couple ROTT if you can so you can know where they are at before putting down for a long nap.

LOL. Enjoy.

Sorry about that Jjanecka, was hoping they would be there by Christmas. The mystery person's is delayed as well, and also resides in the Lone Star state. Must be a strike or something going on.

Ok, so they're not sick yet? I might smoke one tonight. I'll skip the dryboxing; always wanted to know what it is to smoke a fresh rolled smoke.

^^^ You'll know if they've started their sick period with the first couple puffs.

And you will still "know what it is to smoke a fresh rolled smoke" even if you drybox. It will help the tobacco smoke a lot better.

So Corey hooked me up with an option to trade, sent me a sampler of one of each (4 total) of the Johnny Os. I'll probably try and smoke them all before the sick period hits.

He also sent some body guards:

Sarsaparilla - nh
Laranja Volta - nh
LFD Ligero - love em
Room 101 Uncle Lee - nh
Diplomaticos torpedo - nh

Lot of never hads in this list, look forward to smoking them all.

Thanks man, I'll have to drop my end at the po sometime this week (probably Friday is the earliest I'll be able to do it).

Hell of a hit.

Man very very nice. You are in for an awesome treat. Be prepared to get hooked on all of those. The LFD and Room 101 to me is like crack!
