I used to smoke quite a few of these cigars...but they were always so green...they improved greatly with age, but I'm to impatient to wait on anything but Cubans these days...how are the newer batches??

They haven't been released yet......and you can't get em. They only went to a few IDIOTS!

Got 8 bundles coming in. Even though they will have to be aged extensively, I'm very excited about them. I've got wood!!!

Don't put gum in my ashtray and I won't put my cigar out in your mouth. Deal?

I used to really enjoy the old blend. Hope these are as good.

Wooohoooohooooo!!!! Just got mine in the mail. Everything looks great! Got an entire recliner buried in barber poles and black & silver bands. Mayhem is happy!!!

Now the waiting begins. I'm saying 1 year of age before I even crack open the bundle. They won't need to worry about airing out though. I'll be going into the coolers to just look at them time and time again.

Don't put gum in my ashtray and I won't put my cigar out in your mouth. Deal?

I thought Carlos was out of the business? I liked his old stuff but I am not a fan of barber poles.
