I've smoked 7 or 8 boxes of V Vegas A's "Artisans" over the past two years or so and they've been great. Around May of this year, I got four boxes from CBID. I ended up sending three boxes back as only one boxes worth of unplugged cigars. I'm talking broom handle plugged. These were stored at 67 degrees and 65% humidity just like all my other cigars have been for years.

I ordered three boxes for replacements. So far, 7 out of 25 have been plugged to where they are unsmokable, a 28% rejection rate.

Is anyone else having problems with the construction of V Vegas "A's" lately, especially the "Artisan's"?

Any suggestions on a cigar that has the same taste profile as the Artisan's?
