Planning on doing the tasting all at once when I'm with Michael in the coming days/weeks. I think it will be fun to judge characteristics with a voice of reason.

Voice of reason? Exactly which one of us would that be? Is Elly going to play, too? Methinks we are in trouble, here....

I've got a plan, Mike. You might not like it as the creator of the cigars but trust me. I'm a professional.

Get your reviews to Mike within 3 weeks of receipt. That's the price to play. Don't, and Mike sends no more sticks your way.

All of us know me well enough to know I have absolutely no power but let me have my moment.
We seem to be at a group impasse... no es interesante?

Yes, two more weeks you have to wait. I'll have the same type of set the others were sent, plus a second set of larger, Honduran sticks that I'll also be trying for the first time.

Another note of encouragement to the testies (testes?) in the wrapper experiment. We really need everyone to get their cigars smoked relatively soon so we can discuss them on the show in a couple of weeks. Remember that we're looking for the change each wrapper brought to the cigar, comparing the flavors of the "naked" cigar to those found with each wrapper type, not necessarily a review of the cigar itself. We also need the makeup of the tobaccos (via the list I provided you) in the cigar, so please include that info in a post. Thanks!

I put up an announcement for those who aren't using Tapatalk. Who all is in on this, and I'll begin hounding the crap out of them until the results are in.....
