Like a few others, I'm smoking 3 to 5 per day. Really only 3 cigars bad enough to straight toss: Partagas Maduro 1 - 2018 code : ungodly bitter. like turn your face inside out bitter. Upmann Noellas - 2020 code : so plugged even the PerfecDraw couldn't save it Partagas Salamones - 2016 code : was a very strange cigar. Technically it was lit and smoke was coming off the end of it but, the draw contained no smoke and no flavor. So weird. If we were looking at the number of underperforming cigars that I didn't smoke "all the way", the numbers are probably in the 100's. Really struggled with 2017 and 2018 box codes last year.

I've probably threw away 4-5 that were just beyond saving. But I've come across a tons of almost plugged cigars (no, the humidity is not high), Perfecdraw helps a bit but the experience is not the same any more. I think the taste changes, you might get a slightly better draw, but it's not the same cigar any longer.

Thanks everybody. I’m glad to be here.

Box $ 319 USD $ 1190 AUD Quarter Box $ 84 USD $ 287 AUD Normally (outside of the week before Christmas), the process for hand- picked stock is that each weeks orders for the prior week are brought up each Monday from the warehouse and shipped that week. If you order on a Saturday/Sunday there can be a few days extra delay (as it falls into the following weeks cycle). Similarly if you order on a Mon/Tue/Wed/Thu/Fri then they go out the following week 99% of the time. Public holidays can occasionally throw a spanner in the works. If you have multiple orders then they will be scheduled but the team will correspond with you. Do not contact Diana unless there has been a significant delay outside of the above. · This selection will be up for 24 hours. First in first served as quantities are limited. Hand Picked denotes they have been selected by myself and represent a mix of high end PE, HQ and sometimes PSP. We will not cherry pick boxes on request

I watch the videos and for the most part enjoy them. Sure sometimes a little corny or over the top. Nice to see a father and son share similar interests and put themselves out there.

Probably 2-3 cigars. Some others saved with the perfecdraw. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Well boy I blew it. I figured out Elon Musk after I sent the PM so I would have lost even if I had guessed him right because I couldn't make Cohen.

One BPC that the PerfecDraw absolutely could not fix. That was it, out of ~200 cigars.

They pay the ladies running them to nap all day. Check out the ladies on the left. 😄

I would NEVER have guessed Drew. The others I was good with. Good show!!!

Congrats to @Goodfortune ! I got Albert right... 😌

3 or 4. Smoke on average 2/3 a week.

REVEAL & WINNER ANNOUNCED... Well done to all entrants... most got pretty close, but only a handful nailed it... #6 Leonard Cohen caused the most grief. The winner from the draw of correct entries is @Goodfortune !! Congrats! Please PM your details (name, address, email & phone) to me, and we'll arrange dispatch of your prize. Thanks to all participants. Next Eyes will be up on Friday - stay tuned! 1. DAVE CHAPPELLE 2. DREW BARRYMORE 3. ELON MUSK 4. DENZEL WASHINGTON 5. ALBERT EINSTEIN 6. LEONARD COHEN

Specifically my state (west Australia) has been entirely unscathed. 1500 cases and 9 deaths through the whole pandemic so far. Maybe 10 days of lockdown (3 times we had a 3 day lockdown or so), wore masks for maybe 40 days all up a few times. We've jsut kept everyone out, especially other states. My state is currently offlimits to the ENTIRE rest of the country.

0. Probably smoke 4-5 a week during the season.

I’m guessing there are a few choice nicknames in Spanish for that machine.

Thats one thing i find NC industry does really well.. selling "seconds".

I’m glad you guys are having luck with the perfect draw. I’ve tried to use about 20 times following the instructions and can’t get any improvement on the draw (or end up exploding the wrapper), end up tossing anyway. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Well you got me interested now. How do they cheat the system?

Couldn’t agree more, a fantastic cigar!

I smoke 3-5 a day, only recall one cigar that I had to toss. Maybe a half dozen that i needed the perfect draw to opened them up for me.

If you love Warped it’s worth trying out. I like Warped, bought a few things, and wasn’t disappointed but also wasn’t amazed.

Yes, of course, that all makes sense, for sure. I, along with many others, do not have those concerns. However even though I am pretty sure I have Omicron right now (boy does my body feel tired), I have no plans on leaving the house this week and that especially includes standing in line outside in sub-freezing temps to get tested. Although I do have to smoke pork bellies for 8 hours sometime this week.

I’d say 5 to 6 at most and don’t have a perfect draw tool.
