I saw these on C-bid and at my local shop where I picked up 3 of them. Anyone smoked one so far? C-bid claims it is a sun-grown rosado wrapper. Hopefully I'll get time to smoke one today.

I bought three of them in December when my local got them in.

Haven't had a chance to light one up yet.

If the C-bid auction ended right now it's gonna cost the winner 50% more than what I paid per stick including shipping. But, as said before, they're worth what someone is willing to pay for them. The auction ends tonight. I'll be interested to see what they end up selling for.

I paid $8, the tobacco taxes here kinda suck and the governer wants to raise them again. I'm used to Kentucky's old tobacco tax, so I might be a little spoiled. Plus, the shop owner knows his clientele will pay the premium for them. I'm usually lucky to get any special release material anymore.

They were going for $9.95 here at my local... ouch.

I wouldn't mind paying MSRP for these.

I've tried one and it was very good. Nice spicy sweet flavor the whole way through.
