El Presidente Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 Two new contenders in this week. Both will go for testing once one more sample arrives but let us know your opinion The positive to be taken from this testing is that we now have the system set to test into the future. Keep in mind I will put up a store credit of $250 USD $350 AUD for any member who provides a cigar for testing that proves to be of crystalline substance and not mould. If you believe you have that cigar, take a photo or two and email them to Greg or myself and upon review we will give you the shipping details. We will only take one to two cigars for testing at a time. We only need one cigar for testing from any individual. I will send you a few cigars that I enjoy as hopefully equal compensation. This weeks contestants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, the pyramid has an unusual, worn leather look to it. Not sure what the heck that is! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David88 Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 The opus x definitely looks like mold. The pyramide looks like it's almost dry? Very leathery. Hopefully this can turn up a surprise though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soutso Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 Does the pyramid merely have a toothy wrapper? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamesKPolkEsq Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 Holy shallow depth of field batman! The micro shot does look a bit crystalline... I'm firmly in the plume skeptic camp after getting the macro view of the Opus 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canadianbeaver Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 I am not certified to know of course, but I have a new theory. On non-Cubans this is cocaine to boost its marketing and attract sales interest. On Cuban cigars, it is simply sand from the beach, where Cuban cigars are sold. Not rocket science.

earthson Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 Aspergillus on the Opus - I'm calling it. The surface of the belicoso is interesting - something looks off, but then again, I don't enjoy magnified views of the surface of my cigars. Perhaps I will start?
