jackohalloran Posted January 23, 2011 Posted January 23, 2011 Is it just me (i doubt it) that is really looking forward to the Behike review. I have one resting in my humidor, has just passed the 30 day resting time, and i am doing my best not to light up... the construction overall is breathtaking, i love the holographic band, and the pig tail cap? is the crown on a master piece. I hope my expectations live up

I hope my expectations live up Ken and I are reviewing the 52 and 54 today ....Ken was like a kid in a candy store yesterday when I told him....jumping up and down and sqealing "one more sleep to go!"
jackohalloran Posted January 23, 2011 Author Posted January 23, 2011 Fantastic news Rob! cant wait to watch it.
CigarB Posted January 23, 2011 Posted January 23, 2011 Great, I've really been interested in seeing you guys do a review on these cigars. Any guidance as to if/when Behike boxes will be available?
Stalebread Posted January 23, 2011 Posted January 23, 2011 ....Ken was like a kid in a candy store . . . Who wouldn't be? Really. OK. OK. One or two people. Maybe. But other than them who wouldn't be like the proverbial kid-in-a-candy store?
eman67 Posted January 23, 2011 Posted January 23, 2011 The 52 is a fantastic cigar! Very unique flavor..like a sweet tea...really beautiful.
Colt45 Posted January 23, 2011 Posted January 23, 2011 Who wouldn't be? Really.OK. OK. One or two people. Maybe. I guess I'm one of the one or two..........
kcheek Posted January 23, 2011 Posted January 23, 2011 ....Ken was like a kid in a candy store yesterday when I told him....jumping up and down and sqealing "one more sleep to go!" LOL! Had a funny mental picture there, thx!
cigcars Posted January 23, 2011 Posted January 23, 2011 *I'd smoked my last remaining Behike - the No. 56 for New Year's smoke. It was the most enjoyable one I'd had probably because it had rested in the humidor over 4 or 5 months. The No. 54 would be my preferred size.
El Presidente Posted January 23, 2011 Posted January 23, 2011 I'm looking forward to seeing the lad's review. Saying that, usually when there is this much hype towards a new cigar it's hard not to be a little let down. I hope it lives up to the billing because I'm on the fence on whether to pick some of these up or not. So far I've heard mixed reviews on them. I have had a fair few of the 52/54/56 Behike and I really can't fault them to date. Todays will be Kens first so it will be interesting to see what he thinks.
josie67 Posted January 23, 2011 Posted January 23, 2011 I guess I'm one of the one or two.......... I am too, and I actually smoked one directly from the little presentation box that was given out at the Habanos Festival last year. It was one of the most boring cigars I smoked all last year.
rfenst Posted January 23, 2011 Posted January 23, 2011 Too expensive for me, no matter how good they may be.
RonLA Posted January 24, 2011 Posted January 24, 2011 Smoked a 56 in Germany from the local LCDH, didn't blow my socks off but was smooth, and I did smoke in 30 degree weather, maybe that had some affect. Would like to try them again and the 52 & 54.
mkz Posted January 24, 2011 Posted January 24, 2011 I guess I'm one of the one or two.......... Me too.... The ringgauge and price is just way above my likings...
PigFish Posted January 24, 2011 Posted January 24, 2011 I guess I'm one of the one or two.......... I would say that I am in line behind you mate but I have to make my comments conditional. I have always had fun with Rob, so I would line up for a review with him regardless the cigar. I like the video reviews even if they are a new addition of, "This week in cigar marketing madness." Lastly I would be lying if I said that I am not curios to try one but I don't spend that kinda' money per cigar, no matter how much it is hyped. 52 ring, too big.... 56 ring, just plain stupid! Kinda' like paying a guy to push you off a bridge with a bungie cord around your ankles! JMHO. -Piggy
rckymtn22 Posted January 24, 2011 Posted January 24, 2011 Ken and I are reviewing the 52 and 54 today ....Ken was like a kid in a candy store yesterday when I told him....jumping up and down and sqealing "one more sleep to go!" Hoping he is not too excited so he puts all his clothes on for the video!
tigger Posted January 24, 2011 Posted January 24, 2011 I guess I'm one of the one or two.......... Add me to the list. Because of their monetary value, if someone gave me one, I would be very grateful for a thoughtful gift, but I wouldn't be in any hurry to smoke it.
Colt45 Posted January 24, 2011 Posted January 24, 2011 Yeah guys, I guess I should have tried to be a bit more articulate. As always, I look forward to any and all reviews, but these cigars themselves don't excite me.
Ellery Posted January 24, 2011 Posted January 24, 2011 Me too.... The ringgauge and price is just way above my likings... Same here. I was interested at first, with all the hype etc....but the more I think about it, I'm going to pass.
PigFish Posted January 24, 2011 Posted January 24, 2011 So Rob, amigo, dear friend, hallowed cigar vendor from the Pacific... I just perused your site and did not see these cigar listed, no doubt due to their scarcity. Pray tell, just for the sake of my curiosity what do they cost? Do they come with wet signed engineering documents or must they be certified by the owner for structural use? -LOL -
mbrody Posted January 24, 2011 Posted January 24, 2011 If you can swing the coin, I say go Behike and savor them for special occasssions. If you can afford to smoke them daily, more power to you! Out of the LE/RE's I have tried, the one BHK54 I tried lived most up to the hype. It had unique flavor, exceptional construction, and delivered the goods for the $.

Queen Lisa has the keys to the pricing chamber and for this humble release I do not trouble myself to such issues of "pricing" (ie...I can't count past fingers and toes...and you need to with the Behike). Generally I do battle with forces of the evil empire which have infiltrated sections of HSA, their minion droid pirates throughout the galaxy and the ceaseless attacks by the red haired Jabba the Hutt which has taken over the Australian Govt. Two days a month I sit in fromt of the cigar box army, raise my hands and watch the great boxes levitate....which I then move to the right. The said "Behike" comes as the saviour of the HSA empire but while I have sampled its succulent fruits I am in the hands of Ja Ja Binks Gargett to determine their real worth. Stay tuned. Give my love to the Mrs
Ken Gargett Posted January 24, 2011 Posted January 24, 2011 Ken and I are reviewing the 52 and 54 today ....Ken was like a kid in a candy store yesterday when I told him....jumping up and down and sqealing "one more sleep to go!" first i knew of it was when he turned up and and said where is the rum?
Ken Gargett Posted January 24, 2011 Posted January 24, 2011 Me too.... The ringgauge and price is just way above my likings... don't want to pre-empt the reviews but one of the two was sensational and i believe worth it. the other, good but... and it may not have gone the way that was expected.
dicko Posted January 24, 2011 Posted January 24, 2011 looking forward to the review! mere porn for me at them moment, way, way out of my price range.
