One of the first Dominican blends i made, along with a Session Lager

Burned perfect all the way through, great flavors, Got some hints of Vanilla, earthy tones, and towards the end noticed a little anise.

I'm pumped to try a few come December. Would love to get together with all you Rochester guys, but Sundays aren't the best for me.

These look amazing by the way. When you mentioned in my thread about rolling your own, I never imagined anything this legit.

ApexAZ · 11-30-2011, 01:27 PM

Drew,

I'd be willing to pay for shipping if you'd be willing to send me 1? I'm a newb, and not really good at reviewing, but I'd love to try one and share my thoughts.

maninblack · 12-01-2011, 05:26 AM

Are these for sale Andrew? I'd love to try some.

Crownedone · 12-01-2011, 10:04 AM

I also would buy a fiver.

never_enough · 12-01-2011, 10:12 AM

I would consider buying a fiver to hand out for everyone to try at christmas eve this year.

irratebass · 12-01-2011, 02:33 PM

Yep, put me in for later down the road as well. Congrats Andrew!

SteelCityBoy · 12-01-2011, 03:18 PM

Andrew,

I just got caught up on the entire thread and can tell you that you are doing an excellent job with this! It is such a cool hobby and it gives other BOTL a chance to see an up close and personal side of what goes into making a cigar.

You are really doing a great job and I just wanted to say thanks for a great thread and all the work that you are doing to share your hobby with us!

I will certainly be following your progress moving forward.

BlkDrew · 12-01-2011, 03:47 PM

Big thanks to Shane who was very generous in sending back some sticks for a couple i sent to him,

Another thanks to Mac, who was also very generous. ( Mac i will be making some more Maduros, so watch out

)

Great minds think alike, great job Mac!

Funny 2 out of the sticks we both sent are the same (or at least close)! And Maddies, imagine that?

At least I will be able to enjoy each of those sticks, knowing I have a second on hand.
