AlastairE Posted November 3, 2014 Posted November 3, 2014 Next week, Friday November 14th, at 12pm local time, 9pm NY time (Thursday) we'll set up another live review. No video review this week guys, I have to meet with Rob for plans on when he's in Cuba (I'll organise daily sales of his personal stock ) However, if the regulars want to still arrange a WebEx meeting, I can certainly set one up, and you can all just chat away Let me know! Since we have a week and a half until the next 'proper' (used very liberally there) cigar review, we have plenty of time to decide on a cigar/marca! Let's throw some ideas out on this thread and we can make a decision! If you want to join in the debauchery on the 14th, register on this thread and I will shoot you the WebEx details once the meeting has been set up. We will limit it to 11 (12 including myself) If you are interested and able to attend, please register your intent in this thread. The software we will be utilising is Cisco Webex meeting centre. WebEx allows users to communicate via instant messages and live webcam feeds (both audio and video) The meeting code and meeting password will be sent out (via PM) to all interested participants once numbers have been finalised. Please note that no special software downloads are required on your end, only the enabling of a small WebEx add-on script. However, a computer with webcam and microphone capability will greatly enhance your experience. If you have any questions, or want me to run a test with you during the week, let me know - happy to help out. Cheers, Alastair 1

I won't be there unfortunately.

Optic101 Posted November 7, 2014 Posted November 7, 2014 I'm leaning towards a Connie A, myself.This one is a difficult one for me.Had 2 to sample,1 was bad and the other one was not good. Very troublesome some me as I like HU a lot and nearly everybody is talking how good these are....

Very troublesome some me as I like HU a lot and nearly everybody is talking how good these are.... It could be a cigar that doesn't do well in your climate Werner. I've yet to find a bad one and I've smoked many so far. Knowing that you like the similar Upmann in the lineup just tells me you are getting duds or they don't like the humid & hot environment.
melies Posted November 7, 2014 Posted November 7, 2014 Lol I was searching for the mail to get the password but couldn't find it, I thought you didn't want sick people in the review anymore hahaha 2

I got them from a LCDH in Europe. Smoked one there and one here. I'm telling myself they must be duds. Will not give up on them and try again. Thanks guys. 1
Laynard Posted November 7, 2014 Posted November 7, 2014 Well, I got the one I'm planning to smoke from Rob from a review contest, but I have another fiver on the way, so I figured I'd smoke this one to see how long to wait (if at all) before lighting up the others. Maybe there is just something in the profile you don't like Werner. Either way, I appreciate your feedback on it. I'm even more convinced to try it for the Live Review now...it'll give us something to talk about. (Like Rye will let us get a word in...) I kid, Rye. Of course. 2
