My wallet when I found out there would be more cigars coming out in the Bond Roberts line

[JDoughty]

The BR #1 was absolutely phenomenal. I would love to know what drives the decision to make a cigar a Bond Roberts as opposed to a MOFOH?

The concept behind Desnudo/MOFOH was to provide accessible/affordable Cubanesque cigars for all. We have sometimes targeted vitolas largely passed over by Habanos. 

Bond Roberts cigars has an international focus. Higher level wrapper/tobacco. Still, a DNA is shared across the lines. Blends are not shared. Higher level of craftsmanship.

If they were socks, they'd be easily over the calf level of craftsmanship.

Lol a super weird analogy, but I get it 😂

Just ordered and received the BR109. I think I should let these rest for a month or so. I hear they may be shipped in a more humid state. Would this be correct? I normally rest everything after shipping.

I guess they ship from Florida but I don’t know if that makes a difference. I am sure they are stored in an environment that is controlled. I received some Spada Gorda fivers that were a smidge dry, so I needed humidity added, YMMV.

*I don’t think it’s a bad idea to let things settle. Especially as the price tag goes up.

Just like @ElLoboLoco said, I too have had some arrive slightly dry and others slightly wet…meaning no different than when you order any other cigars. All depends on what the conditions are in transit.

Let them acclimatise in your humidor. These have done a touch of travelling. 30-60 days would be ideal.

Amazing part is they shipped Friday the 3rd from Florida and arrived at my home in Washington State Monday. 3 days travel is FAST!

Is the BR line a Honduran Puro or does it contain Nicaraguan and Honduran tobacco in the filler? I thought it was a puro but I've been wrong many times before. Either way, delicious smoke. Thanks El Pres!

Touch of Nicaraguan in there but overwhelmingly Honduran.

@El Presidente More Bond Roberts when? Hoping soon. 😋🙏
