stumbles into a nut every now and then.........

I smoked an AB Tempus Quadrum today.........and it was outstanding!

Perfect, razor sharp burn (zero touch-ups!!), perfect draw (V-cut) with tons of smoke, outstanding flavors......

go figure........

almost makes up for the handful of AB Tempus turds I've suffered thru this year....

wish they were all 1/2 as good as that one....

I've had better luck than you, KOTC. I'm batting about .750 with the Tempus. The turds have mostly burned hot and canoed the entire length, and tasted harsh and acidic.

My experience with the LAdC EE's have been similar to yours with the Tempus, more miss than hit. The good one of 4-5 are great, but not worth the aggravation of the others.

I've had pretty good luck with AB smokes. I actually like alot of Rubin's smokes.
