Took advantage of the IP Mass special but when I openned

the box many of these fat boys had flaking or cracked wrappers. Anyone else see this?

Yeah, I won two five packs of them a few weeks ago and they too were a little flakey. I attributed it to the shipping and handeling of them once they were removed from the original box. Not too bad though, still perfectly smokable. I think they all may be like that, they're not the tightest packed cigar I've ever seen and seem like they can be a little delicate. Pretty good cigar, especially for the price! A little mild for my taste but not bad at all. Plus, it's a great conversation piece for people who aren't familiar with them.

Nah! They're fine, just noticed they were a little flaky, not enought to go through the trouble of sending them back, nor was it bad enough to make the cigar unsmokable. I mean if I paid huge dollars for them I might consider it.... Thanks though!

I am in full agreement also. They smoke well - although milder than I had hoped - but they are good and a great value. I think the flaking of the wrapper was caused by

the cigars being squeezed into a box that would normally hold a smaller ring gauge. At the widest point these cigars are almost 60. That's thick!

Just my 2 cents... But I haven't really cared for the Mass...

However, I do really like the BRIKK!! A great cigar with a good kick! JMHO
