Thanks for the contest and congrats to the winners. This was a lot of fun, even though I got sidelined with a cold this last week and couldn't finish. Oh well I'll just keep stocking lances for whenever we do it again.

Unfortunately I didn't make notes. I've smoked 3-4 and the first was EXCEPTIONAL. The others including tonight were merely good smokes.

I did note that nearly all the flavor was on the retro (for me). I was playing Rummikub and didn't devote enough time or thought to it.

I'm torn about their aging potential.

I had been waiting all month to smoke this. I love the idea of this cigar. One guy rolls the entire line producing like 100 a day. Although all premiums are handmade, I like feeling that I'm smoking some handcrafted artisonal cigar. A few days ago, I cut out 3 from this full box to bomb out to some deserving brothers. I shipped them out today from the post office and returned to light one up myself. Even though the tupperdor has been rock steady at 68% for the month and half they have been in there, just having some space to move in the partial box and taking the tupperdor down from the shelf in the closet I found 3 broken pigtails and 2 cigars that have cracked upwards from the closed foot.

I smoked one of the remaining intact ones, but the situation has left a sour taste in my mouth and so did the cigar. I'm going to feel awful embarrased when a few brothers open up a package to find several sticks and a small pile of shredded tobacco. This was going to be my final lancero to close out the month, but now I'm going to try and squeeze one more in before midnight tomorrow to end the month on a happy note.

I want you to know that I didn't see any issues with the one you sent brother! Thank you again and I'll make sure I enjoy it that much more!
