Oh well, 3/4 of an inch is all I can stomach. Maybe I didn't get to the 'absolutely wretched' point, but at least I can say I have experienced all that is "CREMOSA".

They are definitely an "experience". This weekend at the Barn herf I witnessed one of the most heroic feats of smoking I have ever seen. Bonjing(Greg) manned up big time and smoked one past the band! :bh

either my pallet is not as refined as you guys, or i may have none at all :D. I think i just got lucky. full clouds of smoke, but not much if any flavor. it did get a little bitter here and there but it quickly disappeared.




you sure you didn't mean horrific :r
