    That's interesting! I can't wait to see how these check out compared to the competition! Hopefully Florida still has enough latino spice to make the tobacco delicious!

    Yessir, it's 6x54. I believe they called it a "trunk pressed" which is new to me?...

    trunk pressing is the term used for a larger quantity of box pressing that uses a large press. not as much time is put into the pressing process an the molds are turned less often and these cigars are usually the box pressed cigars that dont have sharp crisp edges. press pressing is a smaller version of trunk pressing that is pressed longer and rotated more creating clean crisp edges.

    I thought it was putting a cigar betwixt your butt cheeks and giving it a good squeeze.

    It certainly sounds interesting, growing up in Florida and still considering it home I definitely want to try it. I'd probably go Toro or robusto, but may have try one of the pressed ones also since it is a slightly different blend and wrapper.
    I don't have emotions, and sometimes that makes me very sad.

    I'd like a smaller size plz.

    Probably won't try this until it happens, or I simply come across one. Robusto or Box-Pressed for me. Short Perfecto would be bomb though

    Haven't even tried the UC Shade yet, I'm so far behind this DE Train. Maybe if regulation stops it all I'll catch up sometime - otherwise, nice to see more cigars still coming to market, it's interesting at the very least.

    @AlanS and @projectsunfire which of the sizes shown above would you select?
    What about other thread readers, which one appeals to you?
    I would choose #3.
    Looking at the picture, and not knowing the sizes, I'd certainly select #3 as the best choice to check out the blend, wrapper to filler/binder etc.
