Review of Cigar #4 Q_The_Cop's Review Cigar #4 I pulled this cigar out of it’s baggie and was like “WOW, this is a long one!” It was nice Lancero, with a medium brown wrapper, with no real veins to speak of. There were a couple of chips in the wrapper, and a small hole in the wrapper leaf...

Many happy returns!

I'm in as well!

Cigar #3 Well since we're down to only 2 reviewers, let's see how they did with the third installment. Q The Cop's Review I put this puppy out of its little baggie and noticed the wrapper had a small crack (about a half inch) on the foot, and a hole in the wrapper leaf near it was well. It...

Many happy returns!

Well it appears that "First Sergeant" SPIVY has dropped out of "The Newbie Reviews" due to illness, work and assorted other more pressing matters. So I guess we'll continue with the two remaining "volunteers"! Cigar #2 pembroke 3355's review: Thanks again to Jay for this chance(to make a fool...

Time to get one of your troops in line there pembroke!! I won't mention any names, but I have your and Q's reviews, actually, Q has reviewed #3 and #4 as well. I figured the pressure would get to your "troops"!! :D Newblets can't keep to a schedule!!

Only a matter of time until he's asking for the car keys!! Enjoy him.

Just heard from SPIVY, and it seems that he has caught the dreaded cold and won't be able to smoke for a couple of days, so the review is on hold until the poor lad recovers. Of course, he could have smoked it before taking ill, but .... :whistling: ! So stay tuned!!

Schip, federal tobacco tax, goes into effect April 1st.

Many happy returns!

I would recommend 2 gins for the same reasoning you applied to the vodka, tequila and bourbon. One to mix, gin and tonic, gin and grapefruit, etc., and one for martinis.

Still waiting on cigar #2 review from SPIVY. Damn newblet, can't keep to a schedule!! Hurry up and smoke that stick, SPIVY, inquiring minds want to know!! ??? edited because I can't spell!

Many happy returns!!

What, me worry?!?

I was surprised as well, but considering the amount of spice in the recent DPG and Tat blends, and the fact that a lot of "newbies" have a great deal of access to those blends, and not the Opus X line of smokes, they equate spice with Nicaraguan smokes. I guess they all need to smoke a couple of...

Actually, it was Moki's thread that gave me the idea for this! Thanks, Andrew!! ;) I know a lot of bombs get put in a humidor to be saved for some "special" occasion, where this forces these guys to actually smoke them, and think about what they're smoking without the preconceived notions that...

Actually, all three of you were close in your descriptions of the tastes, spice, burn, etc. I think you all have just smoked a bunch of Pepins and Tats, and all attributed that spiciness in the back of your throats to the smokes with which you're familiar. Very similar taste profiles noted by...
