My buddy Andy (aka: ckrddsmke) sent me some Candelas to put on top of the cake. Two of them being the Camacho Candela which I wasn't sure if there were even any still in existence. Gives me another to cross off my wish list. Seriously Andy thank you very much!!!!!!!

    Just need to see Sherm respond in here and the three guys responsible for bombing me the most will have all commented on this.

    Thanks again Andy, I really appreciate them. These will be my first full candela wrapped cigar. The only other time I had a candela wrapper was used on the Assylum Oger barber pole I tried.

    It was a big @$$ cigar that is for sure. Just checked my notes on it and it scored low with a rating of Good (ratings above that are Real Good, Very Good, and last/best is Super Good, only thing worse then just Good on my scale is Bad). My notes said something along the lines of "I really liked the flavor of the first third and last two thirds flavor was just OK, had a slight burn issue towards the end, and that it wasn't a bad cigar but that I prob won't buy anymore for my self". I do remember I smoked the whole thing to the very end.
