Popular Post awkwardPause Posted August 23, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted August 23, 2018 Well folks, the bird of prey has landed, indeed. Oh Lord. I've welcomed the esteemed@cfc1016 and his noble companion into my home and shenanigans have ensued (as expected). An intense inventory session (curated by Scratch Radio) now lays at our heels and we've moved onto the final business. Below are some pics of my puts/takes as well as the overall inventory at the end of the pass, which is just massively impressive to see the least. A HUGE thank you to Colin for organizing this and helping things run smoothly - he should have been paid a salary for the time he's invested quite honestly. I know there have been a few others that have been critical to this process running smoothly and big thank you to you as well (not comprehensive, but to name a few: @Wertman, @THEMISCHMAN @nsills, @PrairieSmoke, @Hotboxx, @jerrybrowne Thank you to all the members that have contributed amazing smokes in this pass before me as well.

OllyBond Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 Thanks for letting me participate@cfc1016. Its was entertaining to follow, and it is fun trying sticks I may have never gotten to try. I'm currently smoking a 2012 San Cristobal De La Habana El Morro, a freebie from @BlackFriar. Started off light, now some really nice flavors are starting to come through, I am getting the tea too @BlackFriar, also that sponge cake flavor I get with Monte No 2's. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
