Forgotten Cigars

[lvfcrook1503]

@lvfcrook1503 @Demuths1770 @Horseshoe are you surprised Collin had yet another plugged cigar?

You can't listen to what @04EDGE40 says about anything. He must store his cigars outside, in the bushes or something because he's always whining about this cigar being plugged or that cigar not burning right. Not sure he has ever smoked a cigar he has stored and it has been "well made".

its so bad when he complains about them being plugged its like is he dry begging for another cigar. i swear the way the man complains he could get free stuff from a rep complaining about the issues lmfa

The cigar probably notices the Deep V Neck shirts and says F*** this guy.

I started smoking Black Label when they first came out, even went to a cigar event they were at. Their stuff was really good and in my mind
even better than some of the well known names, I bought a few boxes. After they got going and became bigger, all I had was issues with
about every stick they made. No draw to wrappers blowing up. Haven't touched one since although I really liked what they were doing.

Viaje seems to have fallen off the radar, they were doing some really good stuff and I still have some sticks from about 5 years ago.
The Satori line was one I really liked.

I think one of the biggest issues with Viaje and BLTC is that prices kept going up because "they're all small batch releases" but they've yet to really hit one out of the park and justify the cost. Zombie was solid and Morphine Lancero was good, but they've yet to produce that stick that is both Unique and extremely good! Caldwell falls into this category as well. Long live the king and king is dead are ok. However, they started into these "Limited" Lost and Found releases and started bumping all their prices and for the most part, they all suck! People love to pay for hype but at some point your product is going to have to live up to that hype. If it doesn't, you're not going to make it.

The other thing is variety. If you really want to be big in this industry you have to have something for everyone. That's why DE and Tat got so big. That's why My Father is still doing well. While I've never had a bad stick from BLTC, everything tastes similar IMO, so unless that particular taste is your favorite, you find other smokes. Same with Viaje. Everything I've had from them has been really heavy on that Charred Wood Flavor, which for me just doesn't do it. At an average of $12+ per stick I just avoid them now.

After all of the hospitality and fun times that I provided these men, it's amazing the way they treat me!

For the record, I store my cigars at 65% and anywhere from 62-68* in beautiful cedar drawers and trays. Ask @Horseshoe , it is simply a curse that I must always work twice as hard as anyone else to enjoy a cigar. But it shows my resolve and determination. And my v-necks show just enough skin to keep female and male alike intrigued. Also ask Brent about that one.

When these babies first came out I couldn't get enough of them!

Swag is probably my least favorite word in all of the English language...

Agreed. I wanted to hate these just because the name made me cranky. But dangit, they are good

I'll have to try one then. I've avoided them on principle since they came out.

Espinosa y Ortega Murcielago were the business when I first tried them. They got scarce and I moved on to milder sticks, but they are still amazing.

La Duena, used to smoke them all the time but for some reason fell away from them. Had 1 a couple weeks ago and really need to buy some more

These are awesome. Now I have to go digging in the humis to see if I have any left.
