No, but you said "this is why..." so therefore you were referring to something or someone in this thread, and as I am the only new member in this thread, it can be logically deduced that you were referring to me.

And the Short Story is NOT a true Hemingway. I found the article.

"Soon after that, the Fuentes released the Short Story, which has the distinctive Hemingway shape, but is not a Hemingway, said Wayne Suarez, a Fuente executive."

Ditto.....all that I asked was for you to identify your source of information. I haven't read the article yet, but I'll get to it.

...or me?

Fuente is VERY well known for producing "limited production" cigar, such as the HEMINGWAY "Between the Lines" and "Work of Art".

I suppose, since you won't see any OpusX "Chili Peppers" or Baseball Bats" on their site, they must not be true OpusX?

What about Don Carlos Lanceros? Hemingway "Nom de Plume" and "Mint Julep"?

Your question has been answered, several suggestions posted here and on other forums. Spamming your PM's about a subject like this will certainly inspire us to answer your next querry.

I feel left out!

Well, not really.

This thread has moved me to smoke my second-ever Short Story, received from a kind BOTL here. This particular one is a tiny bit on the salty side, and I don't remember that in the previous one that I smoked. Very nice - I'm burning my fingers on the nub at the moment - although it isn't my preferred taste profile. However, to get back to your original question, I think that you'll have to restrict your search to Cameron's of a similar ring or smaller.

On the blend issue, I would have included the link in/when the initial post was made. Just a thought for the future
