MoeFOH Posted June 2 Posted June 2 JUNE EDITION Backstory... Back in late Oct 25 our Honduras Fabrica 5 team downed tools, pulled some cold beers, lit up a Fab 5 cigars, and held their first proper brainstorming session. We have been running flat out for six months and this was our first "all in" event. I zoomed in for the meeting and was again blown away by their passion and engagement. They showed me the first of the new Fabrica 5 Photo Boards, a wall of photos celebrating the people who smoke and love their work. Their idea is simple. They want Fabrica 5 cigar lovers around the world to send in photos of themselves enjoying the cigars they make. Each month they will post the photos on the boards, draw one name, and roll a wheel of cigars for that person free of charge. It is a beautiful thing. They want to go to work surrounded by the faces of the people who enjoy what they craft. We will use this thread as the medium for members to post your photos. There are only a few guidelines. It can be any Desnudo/MOFOH or BOND ROBERTS Cigar. Your face/mug and cigar need to be in the photo. Dogs, cats, goldfish, wife, mistress are all welcome. We will pick the winners on the first Tuesday of each month. Winner will be posted and I will PM the winner. Winner will have a choice for their favourite unbanded half-wheel of cigars (50). Short note from the roller will accompany them. No charge. I will post photos of the cigars being rolled once we have our first winner and his selection. They will be brought into Florida along with our normal shipments and sent to you from there. As long as it is a different Fabrica 5 cigar, you can send through as many as you like. New competition starts each month. You can post your photos progressively during the month on this thread. *** JUNE BONUS PRIZE *** Best Photo of the Month, whether it be artistic, setting, smoke/ash, funny, whatever, will win a Bundle of MOFOH Sovereign Suns!! (Bonus Prize Photos judged by the FOH expert panel - Steve, Di & Lisa )

ReelMan Posted June 2 Posted June 2 I just got a couple of sample pack Fundy's delivered, and I am trying to use what little willpower I posess NOT to start smoking one without putting it down for a nap. Darn, that looks good. 1

Popular Post griller Posted June 7 Popular Post Posted June 7 Lit up my 1st MOFOH Mag 44 yesterday while cooking some bacon on the griddle (did some eggs, and 3 lbs. ground beef, too) as I like to food prep on the weekend so we're not having to whip up a recipe every night of the week. I've read the reviews on this cigar & thought it was a damn near perfect size & flavor profile for me, so I sprung for a bundle during the generous end of May Fab5 promo. It was delivered on Thursday, so I let one sit in my dry box until I could no longer resist late yesterday afternoon. All I can say is WOW! This is a fantastic cigar! Perfect burn, draw, and multiple flavor transitions with zero issues with nicotine or "pepper bomb". Even when I had to set it down for 2-3 minutes as I tended to the griddle, it came right back to life with no need for relights. Medium to medium-bold and what I'd describe as sweet cinnamon & toffee. This one will be a regular for me going forward just like the N9 Lonsdale. Well done, and thank you! p.s. -- My picture of my massive chin/neck was a total accident, thought I was setting the phone down & must have hit the shutter, LOL! 9

ReelMan Posted June 11 Posted June 11 How long are you letting these lay down? I just ordered a couple of fivers to sample and want to show some restraint to get the max benefit. Thanks.

I just ordered a couple of fivers to sample and want to show some restraint to get the max benefit. Thanks. In my opinion, the smell of the wrapper and the foot is a very reliable determiner for whether a Fabrica005 is ready to smoke or not. It will be absolutely mouth watering when it is ready. I've been going through my fresh bundle of Magnum 44, impatiently sniffing out the ones that are ready and enjoying them thoroughly. 3

JoeyBones777 Posted June 12 Posted June 12 Home from work and decided to have my first BR Dalia from my box while I do more work. The work sucks but the cigar is great and made it easier on me. 4
ReelMan Posted June 12 Posted June 12 My first MOFOH Fundy on a Saturday afternoon. Chores done. This is exceptional, and a solid nub. Thank you, Tasting Panel Mafia. Great job! 4
