I Hit the JACKPOT....

[CUBANO]

the Beetle jackpot. Got this cigar in Cabo Sept.2013 and froze it for 3 days put it inside a plastic bag and a few days ago had a total of 35 beetles crawling inside the bag. That is why is so important to make sure you freeze for longer periods.

There is a chart somewhere that tells you how long to freeze at a certain temp to kill the little pests.

Holy crap! What kind of cigar is it? I thought HSA froze all cigars prior to shipping to distributors.

Its not a CC, but I had beetles on a RA Superiores that i bought at the LCDH in Cozumel on Dec. 2012. IMO freeze everything and for at least a week.

gross

That's about the worst beetle infection I've ever seen! I've always frozen customs when I receive them, but never regular production smokes.

Care to share what the cigar was?

[tjohn7]

Holy crap that's disgusting.

[tjhernandez34]

That is terrible! Was that the only one affected?

[cigarbreak]

gahh I just threw up in my mouth...so sorry to see that.

[CUBANO]

Yeah, and it was inside a plastic bag. No harm done. I have had beetles before, but only a couple never this many.

It's as if you had been maintaining a little tobacco beetle farm, like kids would do with ants...

[AlohaStyle]

Ugh, just got the shivers looking at that...

[DrunkenMonkey]

I'll be looking forward to your review. Plug up the holes and smoke away!

[cigcars]

I wish there was a fainting emoticon here... I don't think I'd chance smoking that one, partner. You're gonna be risking getting Lasioderma Serricorne in your mouth & system; you're likely to have whatever smoking experience disrupted by sh#t tasting stuff; your enjoyment of a wonderful habana smoke will be I wouldn't do it.

… those are not beetles mate… those are nano versions of CAT D-11s…

You should patent those! -Piggy

This cigar is beyond smokable. The only thing I want to reiterate is freeze for more than 3 days, I would say 7 days just to be safe.

Lots of protein in that cigar.(LOL)

Beetle jackpot is right. Reminds me of a statement I once heard from a British evolutionary biologist about "God's inordinate fondness for beetles," referring to the fact that there are more beetles than any other form of insects. At the time though I hadn't discovered CCs, and what this might mean to our smoking pleasures.

[gtejada]

I don't even want to smoke anymore after seeing that! just kidding! everyone stay calm!

[DrinkSmokeGolf]

If I was a bug, I'd want to be a tobacco beetle.

[leftimatic]

Holy jumpin! Yikes and wowzers! Good thing it was under quarantine.

I feel sick

LMAO. That's funny. No harm done, only one cigar.
