Saw These at my Local B&M

I don't see myself reaching for one of those anytime soon....
 
my B&M had it set up so that if you bought one you were entered into a drawing for the humidor. Did not see many takes though.
 
A general rule of thumb that will serve you well... any cigar that is a Cuban marca name, but is produced outside of Cuba... just don't bother. The name is better than the cigar.

That's the truth. Aren't 90% of them made by the same place, as well?
 
I went to an event last week sponsoring these new sticks by RyJ. I bought a couple and smoked one of them. Truth is that they are an expensive stick. The price was $25 each. I think most of the price is the artsy tube and the whole 3D Fazzino thing.

The good part is that they are a really good smoke. It took me more than an hour to finish the stick. Now the bad part. The negative is that at this price point I would take a 40th or 80th any day over these. I just dont see myself giving up purchase of a Pardon to get one of these. But again, they are a really good smoke.

**edit to add..
And FWIW the humidor is quite a piece of work. It was well constructed, but has that whole 3d thing happening on the inside of the lid. It just didnt do it for me. The B&M had a special buy 2 get one free, so that lowered the price point, but still I'd take my Padron.
