Popular Post El Presidente Posted November 29, 2022 Popular Post Posted November 29, 2022 We have been working on the MOFOH program for some time. Nudies is simply what Hamlet and I enjoy and it will continue that way....forever MOFOH cigars take a different bent. They will be FOH member driven cigars, conceived by FOH members, for FOH. Imagine if you had one of the best blenders in the world in your stable. You do. Imagine if you had access to some of the finest NC tobaccos in the world. You do. Imagine if you had an impeccable rolling team. You do. We will run this as Cuba runs it's Regional Release program. 1. We agree on a size. 2. We discuss flavour profile. 2. I will select a 2023 FOH tasting team comprising 5 experienced FOH members + 1 mod, myself and Hamlet. It is envisioned the member tasting team will change each year but logistics is key here. 3. Each member of the tasting team will receive the best 2-3 blends of the cigar. 4. One week of official tastings (tasting zoom sessions). Recorded and edited. 5. Two things are required: Majority consensus on the best cigar. Majority consensus that the cigar is a 90 point cigar (now) + potential for 92+. .within 24 months. 6. FOH preorders are taken at a respectable discount. Expect 60-90 days to delivery. 7. Order fulfillment. 8. The cigar becomes a permanent FOH line. Anticipated Timing for MOFOH 1 (we may be able to bring it forward up to 8 weeks but lets play it safe). December 15 (2022) Size and blend discussion finalised. January 15 Production of prototypes commences. January 30 Tasting panel announced. February 15 Panel receives blend A/B (possibly C) February 28 Tasting commences. March 15 Winning Blend announced. Production Commences. March 20 Pre-orders June 30 Delivery on pre-orders We are ready to go folks. Let's start with sizing today for the inaugural MOFOH cigar. I am going to restrict your choices to three vitolas and you can pick 2. There is a question on blends as well but don't overthink it. Head to the poll 35 5

Smatthews607 Posted November 30, 2022 Posted November 30, 2022 I have really enjoyed the Nudies releases, but have always wanted a larger format version. I am very excited to see this released. I have absolutely no qualifications to serve on the panel, but am well qualified to enjoy the finished product of everyone else's hard work. 1

MPhillips Posted November 30, 2022 Posted November 30, 2022 Great idea. Looking forward to the end result.
Sir Diggamus Posted November 30, 2022 Posted November 30, 2022 Very cool idea Pres. It should be fun.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
B44 Posted November 30, 2022 Posted November 30, 2022 Great concept and name. Looking forward to giving them a whirl.
jakebarnes Posted November 30, 2022 Posted November 30, 2022 Looking forward to this process. Definitely going to be fun to watch (and hopefully participate in).
joeypots Posted November 30, 2022 Posted November 30, 2022 Canonazo Amante 52 gauge X 150 mm 5 7/8 inches Churchill Cortado 49 gauge X 155 mm 6.10 inches. Spada Gorda 46 gauge X 150mm 5 7/8 inches. These are some nice vitolas. I used to think 49-50 X 6” was the perfect cigar size but now I’d go for the Spada Gorda first. But I quibble, I wouldn’t turn down any of them. 2
Puros Y Vino Posted November 30, 2022 Posted November 30, 2022 This sounds great! FWIW. My winter smoking shed is up and running. 😜 2 1

dshot Posted November 30, 2022 Posted November 30, 2022 After my N4's settled in my humidor they really turned a corner in terms of balance. I really can't wait to see what you guys can do in other vitolas. Cigars powered by FOH democracy. I love the idea!
Popular Post El Presidente Posted November 30, 2022 Author Popular Post Posted November 30, 2022 I fly out Friday 9th December for a 5 day blending session to kick off the program. We are well underway 8
