VSG Enchantment Shape Poll
A unnamed Canadian (who, while lives in Alberta, shall remain anonymous) and I have a little question for the forum. Both of us have VSG enchantments but differ in what we consider the shape is.
Can you help us in what the shape is? Winner (him or I) reserves the right to gloat for exactly one week...

I was under the impression that the older VSG's were round and the newer line is square pressed. I bought some illusions from my B&M that were round, but I recently purchased some robustos that appear to be (slightly) box pressed.

NOO!! the Enchantment is completely different from the rest of the line. It is a box-pressed perfecto shape.
Here is a pic (which should have been included in the first post MAUIED!!!)
Oh, and I will have video footage up tomorrow morning, that proves conclusively that IT IS BOX-PRESSED!

Why unnamed Canadian (eh) which shall remain anonymous (I don't know what you're talking aboot) - it clearly looks ROUND in shape. You can tell the curviture by the shadow in the edges...Originally Posted by drew_goring

Yeah, but look at the areas that I outlined. You can clearly see the band being straight...not curved like it should be in a non-boxpressed smoke!

C'mon now... too easy... anyone?You just wait until tomorrow. You will be running away with your tail in-between your legs. Just like the last time Canada went to war against the USAanyone?
And remember people - this poll isn't just about boxed-press or not...
(American the Beautiful playing in the background...)
it's about American values versus Canadian values...
about the American "wha?" versus the Canadian "eh?"
About Barbra Streisand versus Midler versus Celine Dion (ok, bad example)
Apple pie versus... poutine?
so remember... vote not with necessarily what your eyes greet you, but what your heart tells you...

Hmmm...Now I seem to have come across some intersting information:
"VSG "Rounds" are the oldest VSGs in existence. They were created in 1997, but were not released until 1999, when they were solid in limited quantities in cabinets of 50. "Regular release" VSGs are box-pressed, and the VSG "Rounds" are rumoured to have superior and more robust flavor (or it could just be the age). VSG "Rounds" come only in Corona Gorda, Robusto, Illusion and Belicoso No.1 sizes (though Sorcerer and Spellbound sizes have been auctioned in small quantities)." - Andrew Welch
I think we can call off this silly poll. WE all know who the real winner is
