    I have been toying with the idea of doing this for a bit. Seems like a really cool idea. Let us know how it turns out for you.

    Life is too short to smoke bad cigars!!!

    Oh when the Blues, Oh when the Blues, Oh when the Blues go marching in!

    I just got my final product in the mail the other day. I am definitely happy with what I got. The draw is a little tight , but the flavor profile is exactly what I put together from the little puros. I'll be handing some out to friends to see what they think. I really like how it turned out but want to see if I'm just being biased because I created it.

    Bad ass! Did you smoke any ROTT or did they rest for a bit? Just curious on the draw issue.

    Smoked one the day I got them and another one yesterday, draw was better on that one. I'll be letting the rest sit for about a month before I revisit them.

    Putos?

    Shadowin... you gotta learn some Spanish, man ;)

    love it! PUTOS!
    Watch me come up with the scratch one day and end up blending a swisher.
    Now you got me laughing! That would be my concern to-I do all the blending, send in my order and "poof" I have a $10 a stick swisher. :-) Shadow, you are a brave man!

    I'm guessing the answer to this question is no, but did they offer any Peruvian tobacco for the filler during the blending process? I've noticed that quite a few of my favorite mild-medium cigars have Peruvian filler tobacco which gives the cigar the sweet cedar, citrus, and sometimes musky flavor that I like so much.

    Their coolest contest ever.

    It is pretty cool. I'm just scared of creating a 250 dollar box of cigars that somehow taste of earth and soiled diapers.
