Can’t remember who ran this the last time (and I am too lazy to look) but I would be willing to run it this year if they don’t want to.

A reminder...if interested, you would be paired up with another Cbidder. You would each send 5 cigars. 3 x unbanded cigars (1 everyday smoke, 1 in the less than $10 range and them a premium cigar) and 2 other nice cigars that you like.

Then you will smoke and post a review of each of the unbanded cigars. (Feel free to guess which level of cigar you think it was and if intuitive enough....the brand). The sender will not answer until all three are reviewed. Two options for the reveal of the name/brand of cigar....bands are shipped with the package but are in a sealed envelope or the sender can wait and post on the thread.

So, two questions.....1. Who ever did this last, do you want to take over or do you want me to continue on? 2. WHO IS INTERESTED?

This sounds like fun, count me in (if you'll take freakin' n00b who's done a trade or two).

So only 3 of the five are blind? Am I reading that right?

You're reading that right, jp. I was just thinking about this the other day. I'm in.

Also supposed to send something locally produced or homemade, i.e. hot sauce, jams, brews, etc. IIRC

It was danm who's run this before. Canceled last year because the country called off sick

So, SOB...are you in?

i like this

im in

I'd like to join in, please.

I'd like to get in on this...I always learn a thing or two from this exercise 🇨🇮

I'm down

updated.

I was just thinking it's time to put this up again.

I'm in of course.

Thanks David. You've got the reigns from here.

Affirmative! 👍

Count me in!

I'll be your huckleberry................................I'm in

I don't think I have the palate for this, so I am not in. But I am really interested, so I'll sit on the bleachers, eat popcorn, and eagerly watch.

🍵

Will update in a bit. Leebot, you should give it a shot. Look back through old threads of when we do this.

Where’s that snake at.. I know he’ll play.. even though he hates writing tasting notes.

Leebot, sage words given to me when I had my own doubts about this


I bumped the '19 thread if ya want to take a look at how much we all got wrong

Thanks for the bump sob. That was an nice read. Cool to see Marcus and gummy join in after they hung on the sidelines last year.

Maybe this could be fun. I read through the old thread. I will join. Don’t bash my crumby palate Interesting read.
