addendum: taste this cigar for me.

Followup on a previous post. I went to one of my local hand rolling establishments today, to pick up the cigars for tasteing.
The place was real busy today, with five rollers going and a 10 foot by 8 foot walk in humidor pretty full.
I now figure that on saturdays when I usually go there and find the humidor slim pickings, they must have a lot of sales on friday for the weekend.
Anyway, I stated I wanted some people to test them for me and give me their opinion on these cigars.
I purchased 6 churchill sized- so I am looking for three dependable tasters to each receive two of them(I have been told it is always best to send two for tasteing.
So I have two questions .....one has been answered before, but I forgot
1) Can maybee the moderator or someone with experience set up the three people for this for me? I am not sure how to do this, as I want some valid tasters.

2) How do I send them once again, if I want to use usps.

And remember these are not premium priced cigars, but neither inexpensive. They are all pure domincan puros.

I wish I could send one to everyone , but then I would be the god king of the leaf. LOL

Much regards Jerry

I dont understand what you are asking. I want some other opinions on a particular hand rolling shop near me. Why is that a problem? I just have a curiosity on others people opinion on them. Isnt that why we look at the cigar review section on this site.?
However, I would never be able to find a review on these cigars, because they are locally hand rolled, so I need to get them out to a few people to get some reviews.

Much regards Jerry

Thanks, Jerry. I understand why you are doing this and appreciate your letting me in on this. Cigars are a passion for me and any chance I get to try new ones makes my day. For all of us, I hope these are something special that will be available to all.

Re: addendum: taste this cigar for me.

Just got the sticks today, can't wait to try them!

I think I'll smoke one this weekend, & let the other rest for a while.

Thanks Jerry!

Re: addendum: taste this cigar for me.

Mine came this morning. Very well packed, with a kind note along side. The bag was a little steamy, so Im gonna let the settle down a while, then likely dry box for a few days.

Thanks again for including me, Jerry. You're getting 80+ years experience in the tasting squad, at least.

Do you want my "Suck/Don't suck.", scale, or something more elaborate?

suck/dont suck is acceptable. However if you can elaborate just a bit, it would be appreciated. LOL

I'll be using a similar rating system, basically I'll give it a 1-10 rating, then explain why.

The bag I got was a little moist too, I like that little humidification card thingy though.

BTW herf, where do you find all of those pics?
