    Nice review, love the double review side of things...get 2 opinions in one.
    This is one that I hae been wanting to try for a while, but can never find them.

    Great review Wifey! Will, your side of the review wasn't too bad I guess...

    You know what would be interesting would be to have a bunch of members all decide to smoke the same cigar one night and PM their review of the cigar to one person (say Will), who would then compile all the reviews into one post. The reviews could be split into a half dozen categories (prelight, contruction, burn, draw, ash, taste, smoke, overall, etc.).

    That sounds like a good idea buzz. I am just now getting settled in comfortably enough in the new place to do some more reviews myself. I need to pick up one of these "Sharks".

    Great review Will! And Wifey! Have not had the No. 77 "Shark" yet... but I know that I will eventually try one.

    Buzz great review Idea. Perhaps we could set it up on a box split type of situation.... here is an Idea for a framework to start from. Happy to hear suggestions on this! Perhaps there might be a better way? I am not sure.

    1. Find a cigar to review and buy a box. (host buys box and does mailing after recieving MO from participants)
    2. Send two sticks out to each participant.
    3. Have each participant store their sticks for 2 weeks in the humi. (so at least they are in smokeable condition)
    4. Smoke em and give a report. (we could use a standard reporting format using a word document for ease and organization of reporting)
    5. Final group consensus review when all is completed. (the host or the one in charge of the group review does this)


    I think we could do one of these perhaps every two months or one a quarter. I would certainly be interested in participating in this. It would make for a great "group opinion" on particular sticks. We could run the gammut between fine sticks and yard gars or new products. My question is would we have pics or not? Perhaps one or two? Just some thoughts. That is my 2 1/2 cents for ya. Roger.
    Just another day at the office!

    Your thread has been officially hijacked!

    I like the idea Roger and would participate as well - what would be really awesome is if we could somehow convince a manufacturer rep to offer a discount on a box knowing that their cigar is going to be thoroughly reviewed. I like the pictures idea too - compare ashes.
