    Thanks for the review. I love that Geico commercial too.

    The words "morning" and "wood" appear all too often in your review...

    Maybe there's other business to attend to before you light up?




    Nice job, my friend!

    Great Review. The Connecticut Shade grown is right up my alley.
    I think I need to hunt down a few of them.

    Side note:

    Do not look for these cigars by the name of Ambassador as depicted on EdgeMan's picture. They are the same cigar as Adrian's but the Ambassador is a private label that they do only for Heroes & Legacies. You will find them as Adrian's everywhere else. Since they are fairly new, most people will not find them at their local B&M but you can order online or over the phone at some of the stores. Here is their website and you can find a list of B&M that carry the line.

    They are in fact a very good smoke. I thouroughly enjoyed the 2 I had on friday and brought back about 3 more. Just an update, I emailed Michael, the brand owner, thanking him for the smokes and the great time we had in Austin. He emailed me back this morning telling me he will be in San Antonio at a local B&M delivering some cigars and invited me out for a smoke. This guy is quality.

    By no means am I affiliated with him or his cigars in any way other than the fact that I like to smoke them! Give it a shot and you be the judge

    Thanks for clarifying the labeling Nelson. I agree, Michael is a class act with some smokes that we will be hearing more and more about I am sure.

    Thank you for the clarification. If edgeman's review holds true, this is exactly the type of cigar I am constantly on the look out for.

    I am in a fog. Give me a break!@! Too much whiskey yesterday before, during and after the game and I wish I would not have touched the beer afterwards.

    You know how I roll, I say it as I smoke it! =) Just a little nutty and woodsy flavor in there.
    I had another this morning. I can tell you this, you want to try these Adrian's, any blend. They are all great.
    Tap ndv21 on the shoulder and ask him. These smokes are excellent. I want a box of each of the three blends to start filling up this new humidor.
