    I guess so. Money-wise, though, wouldn't it make sense for more of the big-names (as you mentioned) to keep people hooked on flashy packaging etc? I'm not saying I agree with it, hell, I agree with all of what you said (and I was victimized by it a lot as a younger cigar smoker.)
    Well sure, money-wise it would make more sense for said companies to keep people hooked on flashy packaging and adverts, hell that's the only way they will stay at the top of the game. But some of these companies, as I'm sure you know, sell their cigars based on quality assurance and word of mouth, from their standpoint it makes sense to let the cigar sell itself based on its own merits.

    This is probably the idealist in me speaking, but I'd like to think that the market would eventually quit being so pigheaded and stop buying into the gimmicks and instead buy into the quality. (and yes, I realize that the whole BB project is a gimmick too)

    Yeah Im on episode 3 and I cant wait to get my free camachos!


    You won't get your cigars right after you watch the 4th episode. It either takes a few weeks or they will wait till they stop accepting sign ups then doing a mass shipment.

    wouldn't it be weird if this was some kind of governmental conspiracy to control the minds of cigar smokers everywhere? Kinda like the cigar Manchurian project?

    I watched my 4th video few days ago, as soon as I get my smokes, I will let you guys know what I get.

    Hey guys, If you watched the case study at the end of the black band project, you will see that our boards made it in the video. BBC and gmill are highlighted at about 1:34 into the video. Just to let you know.

    Hey, sweet that we made it on, good to see it was some of our best posters, too. I'm excited to see what they are; we know a few brands they aren't sending out; what do you think we're going to get?
  • Jetmech_63Jetmech_63 Posts: 3,451 ✭✭✭
    I think Camachos, those were called out twice in the vids as the "mystery" cigars
  • betasynnbetasynn Posts: 1,249
    Oh yeah, sorry, I know those are the brand, I mean which Camachos?

    And the fact that it says "The Black Band Project is a Camacho Cigars Production" under the 4th video ^_^

    If they told you which Comachos, that would ruin the point. Its probably something new.


    For those of you who weren't lucky enough to sign up in time, here are all the episodes for your enjoyment:
    Episode 1
    Episode 2
    Episode 3
    Episode 4
