Poorly Cut Cigars?

phobicsquirrel

I got these in the mail today, I'm not sure if these would be considered acceptable, but I can say I've never had any cigars that were in this kind of shape. Pay attention to the foot..

I see a red square, think the pic was inputted wrong?

I'm not sure with the pic, but the band kinda looks like a Ghurka and I know they have what's called a "shaggy foot" in which they purposely leave filler on the foot, to kinda give you a flavor difference in the first few puffs...

what? eh, okay.. Lassy, thanks for the info, I guess I won't be sending them back.

My computer must be acting up or something, I really dont see anything but a red square. Some physical abuse should clear it up right quick.

All I get is Geebee's red square (rectangle, actually), too.

Okay so what are you all telling me, I can't make it as a photographer?

Scrambler

I'm getting the rectangle too, but you can see the pic he posted at this link

urbino

All I get at the link is the same red rectangle.

Just get a red box that way as well.

Big Dean

Yeah, just a red box. If they are the Gurkha Shaggy Foot, this is a very good cigar in my opinion. Enjoy!

Scrambler

Thats weird that the url doesn't work, I can still pull up the picture, oh well. It's hard to see the bands, but it doesn't look like the Gurkha Estate Select Vintage band to me, they are a shaggy foot cigar of some sort. Just light the exposed tobacco and enjoy!

phobicsquirrel

You guys are funny.. Yeah it's not a gurkha, it's a tabak especial toro... Well I don't know how to explain the pics issues...

The construction looks intentional with the exposed binder and filler. Try one out. Some ugly cigars taste great and burn fine..You may be surprised.

Garen B

The browser paste worked for me, it looks like a shaggy foot especially since all the cigars are constructed that way. Can you get a clean pic of the band up?

wmaxham

i dont think u would have 5 if they were unintentional. but eatch foot is a different length? so maybe it was intentional, but it was the rollers first time for a footy cigar?
