Last Words:
Full throttle, into the mountainside...	For the price this is a good Nicaraguan cigar. Don't seem to be very consistent though.
I didn't like this one. Tasted like Memories of Backwoods to me.	Can the next Mega Review be five of these!?
I thought by the cut and color this was an anejo, but there's no 5x50 listed and it didn't taste like the anejo I smoked the next night.	I was rushed for this review due to poor planning on my part.
I think I got an off 1 cause I can smoke bout anything but I think there was twine in mine LOL No biggie cause its been the best review thing I have ever participated in.	The only match that I can come up with is Diamond Crown Maximus. This has an Ecuadoran wrapper so I based my country guess on that. Even though the binder and filler are both DR.
This cigar reminded me of my last diamond crown experience, a big let down.	Not sure if this was a one off that was bad, but it was terrible. This was a very bad experience, that did not last long and I did not take too many notes as a result.
Not a bad cigar, but something I probably wouldn't reach for. The larger ring gauge and what seemed to me like an "oversweetened" cigar just don't really do it to me. Finally, I can stop smoking these shit sticks and get back to something I'll enjoy smoking...... Just kidding. Thanks for this - looking forward to the next one. I really hope the bribe I sent was enough.	This has been a pretty decent cigar. I enjoyed the experience and the flavors. The burn and draw issues were an annoyance but a minor one. This is not my favorite of the ladies but I would give her another dance.
I was almost a little sad when I nubbed this stick. Fantastic job Buzz and Jamie!!! Thanks for this go around and count me in next time.	Good cigar. Can't wait to find out the identity to pick up a fiver!

Editor's Note:


These cigars were purchased from My Discount Cigar. We picked them up for $89.90 with free shipping (bundle of 25). The cigars came nicely packaged, but were in a bundle despite the picture of a cedar box. I didn't see any damage to the cigars and the cello and bands came of easily.

Looks like I shit the bed this round(there ya go Ash). Well done Blowholes for getting one round. It figures that the one you win is a yardgar. Keep it classy San Diego!

Thanks Buzz and Jamie for yet another, kick ass MR!

[prophetic_joe]

Yeah awesome MR. most of these were smokes I had not had before so I was pretty worthless and not much of a help. Thanks to the rest of the Whiny Bitches for getting our team the overall win. Congrats to the prize winners and Congrats Irish for claiming the championship.

Thanks Buzz and Ash it was really fun.

[Irish79]

Great Mega Review Buzz & Ash! We sort of coasted at the end, except for PJ. It would have been a lot closer if PJ & Logan didn't claim a few bonus points in the final challenge.
