I've lost track of all the times I've read about how the "original" or "previous" blend of a cigar was so much better than the current one. CAO, La Luna MF, and Mayorga are just a few of the many I have read about. If all these blends are so dang good, why do they keep changing them?! I rarely, if ever, read about a blend changing for the better. Everyone is always reminissing about how they used to taste or rejoicing about finding a box of the old blend. Why couldn't CAO have gone from Perdomo to Tambor(I think?) instead of the other way around? Why couldn't La Luna have gone from Torano to in house instead of the other way around? I can understand needing to expand to meet growing demand, but there's got to be a way to do it without a negative impact on the product. Sorry for the rambling, but I don't get it.

Edit: I may have gotten the names of the factories mixed up, but you get the idea...
