Definitely something to consider keeping in your daily rotation
A lot of people really like ****Batch but thus far they really dont even compete with the Tenski place in my book. I have a huge wishlist at *****Batch but I guess those blends rarely go on sale. I'm not going to buy a five pack of something I've never tried when I can get a 10 pack of something I love, plus a free cutter, for the same cost, or most times less...
Not bad. I won a box of BOTH the Toro and Lancero/Churchill. Don't recall which year is which. Both were good smokes after a few months of naked aging.
would they have been as good if you wore clothes?

Thank you for keeping our lights on...
I think kotc may have been subtly pointing out that the prices you got weren't exactly deals... In the case of the fritas, more of an overbid...
I hate those rothschilds so much... And I really, really like Illusione...

Yea I hear you Opel...I picked these up from CI. Sometimes a will pay regular price to keep my humidor flowing with interesting options. Life is too short not to do so.
If you recall can you come back and post as to whether of not the Rom 101 maduros are any good? thanks!
The Ichiban maduro is better than the Drew Estate bundles IMHO. The Ichiban maduro has complexity and has a transition going from the 2nd to the 3rd. Dominant notes are Chocalate, nuts and a lil spice and an earhy core. On the retro this stick opens up with sweetness and the chocolate becomes somewhat creamy in both taste and texture.
Sorry for the late response. I forgot about this request.

Nothing wrong with that at all...
Ya.............and when buying from the mothership, you never have to worry about the indignity of losing a bid.

PM me if you guys ever see the nasty frita on cbid. The Papas Fritas go for 25 for a 5'ver on here all day long.
Used to be able to get them for $3/ea at da other place.
Lots of people here bash em cause, ya know, short filler floor scrapings and all...
But I always liked them..................at $3/ea
At $5 ea?
um...........no...
Yea, but it's not your Uncle's short filler. These puppies have the best scraps in em and have always burned well for me. It's just nice to have access to a Liga 9 for a daily smoke. Some BOTL's can become jaded and fickle. [gonzo]
.....that sounds great. Thank you. As long as there is some body to them and not a **** load of generic spice flavor like all Rocky Patel maduro cheapos have I'll give them a try.
Now that I have dove into them, I can report back that they are not all consistent as in flavor profiles. But all have burnt well and have plenty of body.
I feel like some have less of a cacao note and more earth and some have that bang on dessert quality. But all in all its a bundle stick and its the best bundle on the market right now IMHO. Way better than the RP Cargos for sure. These and the DE ones are on my bundled top lists.
