The burn was nice - not pink, not fluffy, and definitely not showing it's belly. Oh, and overall I would have to say that it was just plain cool - like Miles Davis.

My guess: Cuban - and a very nicely aged one at that. I would guess this cigar is at least 2 years old, and it was fantastic. It reminded me somewhat of a RASS that a very generous BOTL here gave me - but if it were a RASS, it was definitely aged because the flavors were soft and mellow. I am excited to find out what this was, because I will be getting more of these for sure. Thanks for the smoke, EGQ!

Ok Mark, let's see your lamek attempt - give me your best, I can take it!

it is in fact a Cuban -- nice job Buzz. It was a Boli Royal Corona. Sorry for the delay -- I had it set it up for email alerts when folks posted, but that apparently only gives you one alert until you actually log back in to the site.

Sweet Sassy Molassey! Thanks for the fantastic stick, I will be picking up some more of those for sure.

Out of curiosity, do you know what the age was on it?

ABR 2006 -- just over 4 years. I have a few from 2008 that I picked up as part of a box split here -- they are getting there, but need a bit more time.

Nice job, Buzz! Lamek sig tag sent.

Just so you know - I'm running out of ideas for winners. Didn't think so many of you would win. Hope I don't lose cred, but I thought it was cool. Sorry you're the guinea pig here, Buzz.

Also, I have decided to pull EdgeMan from the pass. According to his profile, he hasn't logged in since April 14th. I've sent him two private messages, and haven't heard back from either one. I don't want a situation like last years, so I figured this would be the best option for everyone. I am open to allowing him back in the pass, if he writes me back and/or resumes posting again. I just thought with a month of inactivity from someone relatively new to the board, that in the best interest of everyone else in the pass, this would be the best call, but I open this topic up for discussion amongst you all. Feel free to post here or private message me your concerns.

Eville - you're up next. Which address do you want the pass to go to?

Buzz - thanks for posting your puts! Make sure to let us know with a DC# when you ship out.

I am diggin this sigtag - whew! Glad I got it right, not so much for the prize pack (which is very nice by the way!), but more cause I was skeered of what Mark had in store...

I think he has a lot going on right now and he might end up coming back later, but I doubt he would be upset at all for pulling him.

I agree. I had sent him a couple of PMs to see if hes doing ok but have gotten no response to those or voicemails on his cell phone. Really hope is doing allright.
