Forum Blend Finalization

Okay, here is what was decided thus far.

Wrapper: Habano Ecuador Oscuro

Binder: ???

Filler 1: Habano Ometepe

Filler 2: Habano Condega

Filler 3: San Andres

The third filler was a close call between Panama, San Andres and Jalapa. We are very close to a great blend. if I may, I would like to suggest making the binder San Andres instead of Filler 3 since it makes a great binder and slot Filler 3 with Jalapa which was a close contender in the voting. I think this will really please everyone given the votes and filler 3 and will actually make one hell of a cigar (although a little esteli would really round it out if we wanted a fourth filler). Please let me know your thoughts.

    I think the SA binder and the Jalapa filler sounds like a good call... I haven't voted much on this, but it's looking like a pretty cool blend

    You're the Pro. I go with what you suggest. 4 is my lucky number anyway. Can't wait to try this.

    Sounds good to me, you're the pro! BTW wasn't the wrapper supposed to be sumatra, not habano?

    And/or something in a Perfecto. I think it would add to the complexity.

    The size/strength was the first vote. Alex said it will be a sampler with toro, torpedo, and lancero.

    Agree on the perfecto but you need better rollers for that and might cost more to get it done. I would love perfectos or belicosos.

    Alex, do what you think best. We helped with direction but you know what you are doing.

    I believe there was a revote or change with the 3rd Kid. The wrapper is supposed to be Ecuadorian Oscuro Sumatra though

    I've left all the voting to the people here who are much wiser than I when it comes to this stuff. I just want to get my hands on the finished product.

    No way to order yet since the blend hasn't technically been finalized. I haven't heard anything official, but I would expect Alex will let us know the sampler details, price, and ordering info when they're made and close to shipping time.

    Seeing as how I know as much about blending cigars as performing surgery, I'll defer to you - san andres binder, jalapa as the third filler and esteli as the fourth
