Several are decent. The PH-650 is actually very good. I have a few resting for about a year. I tried the YP-5754 and it was just OK.

I think the pigtails are the RH-5554 which I have several of. I hope they're not that bad, Gae.

Someone gifted me a rH-5554 and almost smoked it this morning. It's still in the 3 finger. That bad?

Also, word on the street is san lotano is a successful line that came from the Blend Lab.

rh-5554 is the right one. iirc, bentakemoto has smoked one before too and we both think it sucks. horrible burn. and horrible taste after the first 5 draws or so. maybe dry boxing will help with the burn but dunno about the taste. very bland. i smoked it back when i was deployed and still in my n00d phase and still thought it sucked. GL, ymmv

I only smoked one and I actually thought enough to keep the label to remember it for later...Oh BTW (KB-656)...the guy I got it from recommended a couple of others as well but I haven't smoked them so I can't speak to them. This one reminded me a little of a PSD4 but that may be a little of an oversimplification...

I actually have found a few in the blend lab I like. However the RH-5554, pigtail, I did not care for - believe the guy at the store said he thought that was the obsidian white noise but not positive.

Just had the ZD-4554, short robusto, think I paid $2.50 for it, not a bad little stick.

Probably my favorite cigar from the blend lab is the JY-656, I have smoked a number of these and keep going back for more.

The nice thing is they usually run specials on Wednesdays for buy 3 get one for free in the blend lab. So there are some good deals. Just my thoughts.

I bought a few about 2 1/2 years ago. Didnt think too much of em, a little plugged kinda bland, felt they werent worth the $$$.

So I just left a couple in the humi, smoked 1 yesterday, Couldnt believe how much I liked it , real smooth medium smoke with some subtle flavor changes and the burn was perfect, could of ashed it all the way to the nub if I wanted to.

Thats after letting them sit for 2 1/2 years, gonna let the other sit for another couple....SD-5555

I honestly think you'd like the PH-650.
