Any updates on this, guys?

This is a cool thread, enjoyed the reviews.

DBall · 01-08-2010, 06:38 AM

Has anyone heard from Brad (Slavac)...? I'm genuinely worried about him at this point.

TheStatsGuy · 01-08-2010, 10:46 AM

Not positive but I think he's still up here in New England visiting family and friends. He said he was going to be bouncing around from house to house in the area. Not sure when school starts back up for him, but he should be back on line soon.

This was very fun to read. It was interesting the differences both guys reported on the exact same cigar. Thanks for doing this!

Flat4boxer cigar #10
*****************

Review of cigar number 10

This is a light brown stick that is well constructed, not too firm not to soft.

Pre-light draw is firm and does not offer much in the way of pre-light flavor.

Light

The light goes well and a fair amount of smoke is had. It has a bit of spice on the draw but not so much that it would scare anyone.

1/3

Yummy is a word that comes to mind. This smoke offers a hint of citrus and the spice that was present has subsided to a smooth full taste.

2/3

Pleasant full flavor continues to come through with every puff. The stick is burning straight and requires no touch ups. The dark gray ash forms and holds firm until I'm ready to ash it.

3/3

This is another really good cigar that I'm quite enjoying. Despit the 46 degree temps, I'm forcing myself not to rush through the experience. My cup of hot chocolat is really keeping me warm and going well with this cigar.

I would def. recommend this cigar and would purchase in the future with no hesitation.

Overall, I'd rate this stick at 9.2

I'd like to thank Dan once again for allowing me this opportunity to expand my horizons. These reviews have served me well and added to the enjoyment of my smoking pleasure.

Enjoy the hat and Palio Dan
