    Had a MOW Virtue last night and I can't say I was all that impressed. It was OK flavour wise, but after I was done it, I felt like I should go out and smoke a real cigar. It just wasn't fulfilling. Nice looking and well made, burned great, but...5/10

    I Wasn't impressed all that much with my first one but the 2nd one was much better.

    For me it was just too mild. Tasty and all, but after I was finished it... I felt like I should go out for a cigar.

    You've been spoiled by fuller bodied cigars! I tend to agree with you on this, the virtue is a nice stick but no way compares to the MOW or Ruination. Then again I suppose MOW needed a lighter cigar.

    Im glad that MOW put out a flavorful cigar that doesnt make you hurl afterward!
    Ha, not that Ive hurled from a ruination, but I like alot of flavor with med body
    This stick delivers that IMO - Well the londres does, the petite figurado was ok.

    I agree totally,I haven't done the badge deal but so far not a Virtue fan. I really love the others though.

    I'd like to get the MoW badge, but alas, no Virtues :( Too expensive for singles. Hopefully, there will be a daily deal or weekend blitz for these.

    The AJ Fernandez Dirty Dozen Sampler is about worth buying just to get the Virtue, considering everything else that's in there.

    I've got the Ruination and the Special Edition resting. Next week I will get the regular MOW and the Virtue. I told the wife today, that the 4th of July is my day to smoke all 4 of the MOW's.

    Sweet, we need more general awards!!! I'd suggest smoking the virtue first then the mow then the se then the ruination.

    I might try this next weekend

    But can someone enlighten me?

    I should be looking to smoke 3 sticks in one day; Virtue, MOW, Ruination? (in that order?)

    Or do I have to fit the SE in there somewhere too? I see references to both methodologies in this thread, so I humbly implore the current holders of this presigious honor to educate me on the correct way to proceed.

    Special forces is for all four. The original badge is MOW, ruination, and virtue. Don't matter what order as long as they are all done in one day. I would go virtue, MOW, and then ruination as to not burn out your pallet too bad :D

    Ordering my AJ Dirty Dozen sampler in a couple days. Letting the sticks sit in the humidor for a few weeks. And hopefully go for the MoW badge on vacation. Can't wait.

    Was going to go for it yesterday, but got an emergency support call and spent six hours sitting in traffic to go 200 miles round trip. Didn't want to waste those cigars while driving, had some others instead. Just got the Virtue mini-solomans, so fully equipped for the task.

  • wwhwangwwhwang Posts: 2,878 ✭✭✭
    Two down, one or two more to go! Smokex the original and ruination back to back. Just need the virtue and maybe the SE before I go to bed. I'll try to post pics tonight.
