Golf on the tube? Check. Trumpet for practicing? Check. Cigar? Check. Houston, all systems are go!

Brazilia gol. These were a favorite for quite awhile, though they have fallen back a bit. First in almost a year. Still full flavored with a retrohale that presents itself far back in the mouth.

Maybe it's like becoming one with the cigar. You lose yourself in it; everything fades away: your worries, your problems, your thoughts. They fade into the smoke, and the cigar and you are at peace. - Raul Julia

Found this cut and naked in the bottom of my humidor. I have zero memory of prepping this then putting it back...

Any theories on why the CyB line never took off? Great smoke, maybe it just got lost in the market.

I like them, too, and have about 30 sticks at home. They were Cuenca y Blanco until a couple years ago. Maybe the trademark battle/issue caused them some other troubles.

There was A LOT of hubbub at inception, but they failed to carry an audience. Don't know why, although I bought a bunch early on and was disappointed with a terrible rate of construction problems - specifically, half of them were unsmokeably plugged. Never went back because I felt ripped off paying double for them (because half were no good). Even if they got the process fixed, I tend to be unforgiving. If there were lots of guys like me, it'd be hard to bring them back.
