Competition will commence Mid November and run over 4 weeks leading into Christmas. 5 Cigars. 3 of those cigars are aged 5+ years. Bonus points given to those who pick the aged cigars.

ChangBang Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 Should be fun! Was going through the past blind tasting threads and it was crazy on how cc staples were mistaken for other cigars! I can't help but wonder how I'd do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glass Half Full Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 Perhaps we need classifications based on numbers of posts or some other basis of experience?? (No doubt, I'm in the amateur group :) Would be a challenge to go up against some of the experts on this forum, ...good fun no matter what. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m only up this late on a school night because I had a bad dream earlier. I dreamt that my house was on fire and I saved my wife and the cat, but lost my drums, saxophones and cigars. I am now rearranging my cigars and saxophones... 14 minutes ago, Glass Half Full said: Perhaps we need classifications based on numbers of posts or some other basis of experience??

There are no “experts” on this forum, just those that have seen more and those that have seen less. For example; I’ll bet that I’m the only FOH that was in Havana during the only F4 tornado to ever hit the island in 500 years! 😳 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nKostyan Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 Depending on the price point I'll try jump in. Don't think about the price. You will get a great pleasure that cannot be estimated in money. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hammer Smokin' Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 For me it would be like rolling the dice... Which is likely the same for 80% of the members here. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
