I got a clean cut off of mine, the only problem I have is when you push the button to release the blades one of them sticks a little bit.

You'll Love 'em, Michael! They're Good ROTT, But Even Better with 3 Months of Rest!:tu

I hate that word rest. I am giving mine a few days to acclimate, then I will try one. Maybe even tomorrow night. Does anyone know how long it takes a cigar to get acclimated to its new temp and humidity? CI says it stores at 70* and 70%. I keep mine at 70* and 62%.

I smoked one ROTT, same day, and it was ok but a little over-humidified.

I think it took about 2 weeks to get acclimated to 65% and they were smoking much better as far as flavor. :tu

I have a hard time believing that they are shipped at 70% because mine arrived pretty wet, however I could be wrong because I am used to my sticks which I store at 65%

They feel a lot moister than 70%!

Mine were quite wet.

Some of them had the celo stuck to them from over-humidification.

I'm thinking they may be a little fresh. Wondering if they had to bump up production not expecting these would be such a hit out of the gate and they shipped to CI wet.

Mine were from before this recent restock.

Re: Backordering Diesel Cigars
 
Question: Was the last shipment the original release of the unholy cocktail? AND has anyone had a new production one that can compare and confirm they are the same blend?

Hard to tell, there is no box code that I can identify...

Well was the last release the first time anyone had heard about Diesel cigars?

It appears the latest round of cbid does not have these listed

Got the Diesels today. The cutter works fine.
Need to let the cigars rest - journey was 2,534 miles from Bath PA.

I'm smoking a '10 Diesel right now. Still wet and still need a few months rest. I'll revisit these at the end of April.

Bought 2 boxes...smoked one out of the box.
Awesome flavor and construction, a bit wet...I'm sure will be a go to stick after they do time.
