Weekend Cigar Review Comp: The Unloved/Unwashed

[El Presidente]

"Review us oh connoisseur.......we are not worthy"

Most of us have at least a few. Those cigars in the humidor that we avoid. That green banded Vegueros Seone from 1998 that looks like it has been digested by a wildebeest. That  special cigar that you have always thought to be plugged.....but were too afraid to really find out.  That "Don Magnifico My fathers Brothers Uncles Best Friend" Tubo that was gifted to you by a mate when he repaid the $200 you lent him after a bad day at the track. The Culebra that is not a culebra but rather a Monte 3 that has has a very very hard life.  The Piedra or Quintero with the dodgy wrappers that slide off quicker than a top at a bordello. 

In the cigar world they are the "unloved and unwashed". 

This weekend is their weekend 

 

Pick one of your "unloved and unwashed". Review it. Take a few photos.

Start a new thread .

Post it up in the following format.  The "WCR" stands for Weekend Cigar Review. 

Jose Piedra crema "unloved and unwashed"  WCR

Tell us the story and a review 

 

1. All reviews go into the random draw for a cigar sampler drawn Tuesday am. 

2. The most popular review wins a separate sampler. Practice your prose!

Have a cracking weekend!

I'm really afraid to start digging into my dogrocket awards. That part of my humidor was quarantined awhile ago. Cayman island speciality rolls. Fauxhibas we kept because they were a gift...  What I can only hope are Olivia Seconds that I won off of a random starting down offer from cigarbid. Maybe I'll just run down to the local gas station and pick up some backwoods. Rob, will you be paying for the hospital bills as a result of smoking these?

 

Can we just have a picture of them in our mouths and not lit,  the Sam Shepard way?

You are required to put your big boy pants on and take one for the team

And we have to wear pants too? Now, that's just asking for too much.

I put that stipulation in for Ken

If you do a review....put a photo in the FOH Week In Pictures thread as well. It doubles your chance of a prize

Can I use an NC for this competition? My boss bought me this cigar that is a 9x90. Its rediculous and I would love to get it out of my humidor.

  ?? A 9 x 90??  Sure hope there's not too much Dutch Masters or El Producto tobacco in it.  We'll be praying for you as you smoke it
