also, 25 cigars? and he only has time to smoke his own? Maybe Andre Farkas is just a business man and not necessarily a cigar nut like the rest of us.

anyhow, great read. I should mention that I do enjoy Viaje cigars, not trying to be a hater

I also thought that was pretty interesting. How can you do blend testing only, and not compare them with what other folks in the industry are producing. So smoking a Tatuaje or Illusione won't improve your palate and production?
