I smoked all mine & it went like this:

#1 was well made with a smooth brownish wrapper. It lit easily & although it started out a bit boring it got really good through the middle & all the way to da nub. I guessed it was 826 Slow-Aged but instead it was a Leather Patch by DE. Nice!

#2 was sportin' a roughish wrapper. It had an awesome aroma but that was it, sorry to say! I tink she was a Flor Del Todo or sumsing! Had thought perhaps a hand roll.

#3 was a KO! The wrapper was a flawless connecticut shade. She did take a good tostin' to git er goin' but once she were goin' I was droolin' Nice nutty aromas with some powerfull smoke. Me Likee! My guess was a Dunhill Blue Label but it was a Montecristo White Label. Fantastico!!!

I have unfortunately finished the Finger Lakes Port '02. That was really really good!

Thanks Again To JustinMLong for a fine compilation of goodies with stickers & toys included!

Csiegels, I finally found some time to start trying the smokes you sent. They have been resting comfortably in my humi and they are in perfect shape!

I went with the one marked value smoke on the cello. Pre-light aroma was good, light was easy and it burned pretty good throughout. Slight hints of wood in the flavor, but def. a mild cigar with a Conn wrapper. Good amount of smoke to start with, but faded a bit towards the middle and never regained it's full steam.

It reminded me of a 5 Vegas Gold or RP Connecticut. But, I'm gonna guess either a Victor Sinclair or a Punch Second. Am I close?...

Can't wait to try the other two if this one was the value cigar. Good choice of stick...

Lou - Finally got around to your value stick. I feared the first two may have dried out during shipping, I ended up getting this one a little too moist (what?). Ended up being tough to get a draw, so I bailed on it. The initial flavor was good, I just didn't have enough to get a good feeling for what it was.

Thanks again, you are a true BOTL.
