i bought 5 of these from next door ( not ccom) in feb, had 1 rott and was ok till halfway and chunked it, had sent the kid one and he had problems , so i found only one i had left and split it open, i found a total of 5 long stems inside, 1 long right in the middle, these were hard and large stems, so anyone i sent one to in a trade just to let you know, i had dated them 2-10-2012, i had 1, kid 1, means i sent 3 out, anyone else had problems with these

Yea JJ as you know about 1/3 in, The sumatra I was smokin went south and I believe it was a result of a stem that burns hotter than the rest of the tobacco, which in turn causes poor draw and awful taste.. I tried to hang with it and see if would get better but it didnt.. I will say I tend to be less patient with poor smokin cigars and I will toss em.0

Weird....I've had no issues with Reloba, and love the Red. I wasn't too thrilled with the Mexico, and I have a few sumatra coronas that have all been tasty. Bad batch man...bummer0

I didnt care at all for the Mexico either,,, poor construction
JJ,,I'll be sure to send you a Mexico,,after all I owe ya,,,lol0 -
I think I would agree on the Mexico. The Red's toro's have been solid though for me.The Kid:I didnt care at all for the Mexico either,,, poor construction
JJ,,I'll be sure to send you a Mexico,,after all I owe ya,,,lol0 -

Jimmy, I know you boys in Texas do everything bigger but if you smoked 1 and cut 1 up, and the Kid had 1 (1+1+1=3) you sent 2 out not 3 unless you are doing Canadian math, in which case, my bad.

I knew it tasted off, and I remembered this thread. I only got about half way through it. Found 2 stems. A smaller one and this... I'm not in it for the free sticks, but what do you guys think? Should I too, email them to at least let them be aware."It's plume, bro. Nothing to worry about. Got any Opus?" The suppose to be DZR0

maybe they had a bad roller, qc person etc? you see above general magrs. name, he wrote me a personal letter saying that people like me bringing this to thier attention helps and needed to know and thanks me, i sent mine not expecting anything in return and you see how he answered, i rolled up the whole cigar split in half and put in1 bag with the cello/band etc, and another bag i put the sticks in and included a letter stating where i bought them, conf. # and order #,, just google up the my father website for addy if you decide to send it, if you have another from the same time id split it open too, btw, i smoked one of the replaced ones to the nub a few nights ago0
