Camacho Liberty 60/40 Amendment XII

Originally off the internet, but my cigar shop confirmed it when I walked in today to pick up some Spitfire's to have after seeing a concert tonight. I asked them about it, they pulled out this little cigar info book and pointed it out to me. Legit.

I've heard the same nonsense as well. Okay - so do you believe everything you hear without question?

Think about it, Eintstein - the embargo has been in place for 50+ years. How much loose tobacco do you think would have been stored prior to the embargo being put into place? Loose Tobacco that would been stored would also had to have been very carefully stored for it to survive without becoming dust. And - even under the best of conditions after 50 years - how much of that tobacco do you think would be left (after all, wouldn't someone have wanted to roll it into cigars by now)?

IF (big "if") there was in fact any "pre-embargo" tobacco rolled into that cigar, it has to be of such minuscule quantity it would have absolutely no effect on the flavor.

It sure makes for a good story, though - enough to get people to buy the cigar. I believe they call that "marketing"...

Prove me wrong. Produce information about the regions in Cuba the tobacco came from, the quantities that had been stored, where it had been stored and that it in fact made it into the cigar. Otherwise - I believe you can chalk this one up in the same category as the Easter Bunny and the Tooth Fairy.



Eville - you got that info from CI??? Seriously??? I get saviour doesn't get it, but I sincerely thought you were smarter than that...
