Special note to all who gave an opinion

[baboruger]

I am going to receive some cigars from Reyes Family to send out to those of you who took the time to post in the Opinions and perceptions on Reyes Family, Puros Indios, etc These cigars are coming from Reyes Family to me and I will send them out if you were one of the people to post prior to Frank's post. That means that there will be a bunch of you that will be getting free samples of a cigar that Frank Santos thinks will match up to what some of us have said we like! I will be including a review sheet that you can use or not.

I will be in touch with you via PM if you are to be recieving the cigars to verify your address.

Once again, Thank you to Frank Santos and Reyes Family for your generosity.

Frank is a great guy, I have meet him before and this doesn't surprise me at all.

[Deuce Da Masta]

Yup, thanks to frank! I look forward to trying it.

I think I qualified... if not, oh well. Either way I am glad to see a manufacturer giving away samples to dedicated BOTLs.

I missed the original post (somehow) but think that was a great read and excellent consumer and customer support. Reyes Family Cigars stock took a big leap there!! Good of you to take care of the boyz, Brent!

Like I said on the other Thread the Reyes Family are some really good people and work hard at blending smokes to please people s taste. I have sent and replied to several emails with Frank and the guy is differently showing his interest in blending smokes for us here. I have yet to try the Double Fuentes and just got one in a PIF--So sounds like I'll be in for a treat!

I also want to Thank Frank for spending some time here with us and understanding that we all have different acquired taste when it comes to cigars--Thanks Frank again!

I have met Frank a few times out in the field and he is a first class guy!! The Reyes Family is lucky to have him!!

Review of an unbanned Robusto sent to me from Frank--5 X50

Prelight

Look and appearance of the wrapper was not to bad had a couple of very small veins but not to bad.

Scent of unlit cigar wrapper and foot it smelled of freah grass and a mild woodsy taste to the tongue that I thought was going top be a Mild to Med smoke.

Flavors upon first draw woodsy and again the slight taste of grass

The ash semi-firm, light gray

Smoking Experience was a tough one--It was hard to keep lit had to touch up several times that took my smoking experience away from the cigar.

Draw when I could keep it lit was OK

Flavors got harsh about half way threw and might contribute this to the way the cigar was burning and my having to relight and touch up.

My overall rating was about a 65/100 I wondered if it was a little to early to smoke. The only good attributes of the smoke was the Draw and the Ash. I have a couple more that will rest for a while and hopefully will have a better review on those.

Thank you Frank for sending me the cigars to review for you.

Maybe I will have a better review next time.

[tx_tuff]

I never got any cigars.

[tobacmon]

Frank sent me a couple to review a while back. Then Brent said he was sending some to review and don't know what happened---

[tx_tuff]

Hey Brent what is the deal with this?? So far myself, tobacmon, deuce, and lighthouse have not gotten the cigars. You said they went out Oct 24! Can you respond.
