Aging Room trade?

ShawnOL

Ended up with a couple extra fivers of F55 Quattro (toro)/Original (Churchill).  Looking to trade them for whatever you have.

If I'm doing this wrong, just delete the post.

@ShawnOL Sure, if you want to send me your coordinates in private, I can trade. I don't always play fair, but any complaints around here aren't real complaints anyway.

You sure? 'cause I think I may have one or two fancy ones mixed with all the Rocky Patels and Bahia's...

The toros are on their way @BKDog.  Should land on friday.

Received my package from BKDog and I must say, fantastic!   Most I've never tried.  What got me though was the packaging.  Loose tobacco leaf space filler?  Yes. 

What's that note say? 

You can bet your ass I'm smoking that one after dinner tonight!

Thanks, Brian, @BKDog   You rock.

I hope you like that hand rolled stogie @ShawnOL -But even if you don't, honesty is fine because I am pretty green at rolling! That cigar is ready to smoke, I already smoked the other one. I was trying to take a note from the Saka pages by rolling a viso laden cigar, as many believe the ligero is the key to strength, Saka suggested a viso mix, which is what I went with mainly. The Paraguay Flojo Africa viso looks nasty, but man is it ever tasty! I am glad I got a couple pounds.

Don't undersell yourself there.  It has a good smell and taste, but the star is the construction.  Perfect burn, held an almost 2" ash.  Its smoking betten than the DPG B I had earlier.  I don't know what all is involved in blending but this is working for me.  I will be nubbing this one.  Thank you, kind sir.

@ShawnOL - I attached the .pdf of my notes on how I rolled this cigar. Please try to understand I did this for my own benefit because I am learning and will forget stuff, so this isn't really a tutorial since I may be incorrect about some things. I researched heavily for a solid two weeks before even rolling this cigar. To date, and thanks to your input, I will say I have the bunching and rolling down pretty good, but I still need a lot of work at the wrapper. I just tried a couple of the same blend but with a CT shade wrapper and I failed miserably on one and barely got the second to work out.
Next week I will have some San Andres wrapper and a little corojo love to play with, and that ought to make this blend perfect. You can expect a sample once I have them rested a bit. I really appreciate the honest feedback!

Any time.  Great PDF.
