Damn, I hope they take phone or internet orders there is no way in hell I can make the trip that day. My fiancee is really into Halloween and has already told me that I am going to be 100% pot committed to doing whatever the hell she wants. I can't complain too much as I never have to listen to complaining about when I smoke or any purchasing that I might do so it's not all bad. Just really shitty luck that the event is happening on one of the few days of the year that I can't make it.

This is the only reason I've been tempted to drive up there for it. It's only 2.5 hrs for me but Chicago traffic is a bear so it always keeps me from going to events. If the UF-4 is going to be there I'll probably just say screw it and head up.
Count me in!

Wasn't this just a prerelease of the uf-13? If so, then same blend, different band?? Maybe I'm wrong. Too many cigars to keep track of. I'm going back to oliva v's! Haha.

IF more than one bundle is for sale would anyone like me to pick them up some? Cash is tight so please just be able to pay right after the event when I let you know what I was able to get.

No, it was originally called the JD4, then the MF4 then the UF4. From what I recall it is based on the T52 blend just with a little more ligero added to increase the strength. The UF13 would be more along the lines of the #9 blend.

The UF-4 was a T52 finalist, but the T52 was chosen as the release. JD liked the UF-4 so much, he had them keep making them for him, hence the JD-4 moniker. Eventually when they were going to do the limited release, they called it the MF-4. After realizing the initials were shared with My Father, JD changed the name to UF-4. It was released at Casa last year as a small, limited, Casa exclusive.

According to Saka, over time, the team kept messing with the UF-4 blend, and tweaked it to what eventually became the UF-13. I think he stated that he didn't think most folks couldn't tell the difference, but there definitely is one.

I definitely want some more UF4s, I gifted out 3 of the 6 I bought last year. I had heard something about this happening in September awhile back but never saw anything. I was super excited about this and the Jason release so need to get some of these!!! Hopefully they will have them on the website again this year. If not, I would definitely be in for a bundle if someone picks them up.
