The Half Ashed Cigar Forum

I'm just here to say that if you haven't tried Noel's Rojas stuff. Do yourself a favor and do. He just keep impressing me over and over.

I couldn't agree more. He's turned out some great stuff during his short stint in the American market....both his own, and what he makes for others. I'm a big fan of his.

Besides Guayacan, remind me.
Also, nice to see you Ark!

Guayacán / Sabor de Estelí, Ohana, several Ezra Zion offerings, some Nomad, some earlier Emilios. I know there are more, but can't recall at the moment

Oh yeah, I think he made the reblended version of Barry Stein's Kilo

Thank you for answering my blatant, yet not so obvious (apparently), attempt to involve our newer member in conversation

Ark, I would love to hear your thoughts on what he does well, what has been his best and what you think we'll see from him in the future. Also, does your handle imply that you are from Arkansas? I had family in NW Ark for years and loved it. I am flabbergasted by how much it has developed in the past 10 years though. Wow.

I'm in NW Arkansas and man I have to say I love it here. It has grown an incredible amount in the last couple of years but still small enough that I can be out in the woods and away from things in a 20 minute drive.
It was the Ezra Zion boys that introduced us to Rojas at the show we had the intention of buy 1 or 2 lines from him then the more samples we smoked we ended up picking up as much as we could from him and he's also just a cool guy.
Also what surprised me was the price for his stuff it's not bad I mean the Guayacan is like 8 and some change after tax! And it's one solid stick.
I'd love to see more stuff like the Jas sum Kral from him or at least stuff for his own line.

I'll tell you what, If you make that Jas sum kral happen, you have my word that we'll feature it on the show just after it arrives by Kip. As of now, the next opportunity we have to get him anything is in early 17. You say the word!

By your post I assume you are a shop owner. Is that the case? I'd love to hear what your best sellers are and how you and your customers feel about the FDA rulings.
