Accidental Blind Taste Test

[DonWeb]

When smoking at the local b&m - I always remove the band.

Last week, before I lit up my "carry in" cigar, the owner offered me a CAO LX2. I put way my unbanded cigar and smoked the proffered one.

Fast forward one week.

I'm smoking the unbanded robusto - but don't remember whether it was a Mag46, or Epi#1 or RGCE. Smoking it I figured it to be the Epi, but I'll have to comparison test. :ss

Looking for some suggestions ... what option do you folks use to identify unbanded cigars?

Done that before, T. I usually try to go by the size and figure out what I have that is that size and try to narrow it down from there. When it's a vitola that I have many of, then, I have no clue.

Size and taste...

Depending on how familiar you are with the brand and how common the size is, it could be easy or impossible.

if it was boxed pressed, it was the RGCE :)

put bands on them:r:r:r




seriously though, blank bands are invaluable when youre doing MAWs and PIFs or if you get a bomb... not only is it nice if you get a Punch RS 11 or 12, but you can also note who gave it to you... something I wish I started doing months ago.
