El Presidente Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Last years competition was an absolute hoot and who can forget Keith's performance in nailing all three of the cigars :clap: For those wishing a review of the process and final results click FOH 2011 BLIND TASTING COMPETITION FINAL RESULTS Whether novice or experienced in Habanos, the competition provides an excellent opportunity to participate in a learning experience. By reviewing the cigars and reading others reviews we all come away with a better understanding of the process as well as the cigars flavour profile.

CanuckSARTech Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Awwwww hell! Does this mean that I have to defend my title now? Can I sanctimoniously bow out, and tell people that I'm undefeated?! Just kidding - I'm in, sure why not. We'll see if I embarass myself after last year's showing! LOL.
