D@mn Steve... do you even KNOW what a bad cigar LOOKS like?!?! I've been eyeing those Atlantic 15th MF's for a while now.... had a toss up between doing a box of ten of those or doing a Johnny-O! Custom Roll sampler. Johnny-O! ended up winning out and a just ordered a hefty list from him, but wondering how different of a profile the Atlantic's are over the regular release MF's? Either way it ain't gonna be a bad smoke, just curious if it's wildly different like the Le Bijou 1922 or just similar but with slightly different character?
I'm stretched out on the porch swing with a big ole Padilla Black Bear...nothing like a lazy morning with a fat cigar! If I had an iced coffee to go with it it'd be perfect!
Irish, what rh was the FFP at? i am curious...because at our recent herf, I brought two. One was from my aging herf which is normally 68-70, and I think it was on the high side. The other was from the cooler which is rock solid at 65-66. One had wrapper issues, the other was perfect. My guess was the 68-70-over humidity but am curious...

The foot on that one was already cracked and I had fixed most of it with pectin, did a darned good job at holding it together but the entire wrapper had some issues regardless. Smoked brilliantly though so it wasn't an issue either way. I keep my cabinet at 67-68% and around 63-64 degrees F. Rarely have wrapper issues unless it was already present when it went into the humi.

It was not an issue on mine either, I had it racked up to over humidity honestly...but firgured I'd ask. Nice smoke though huh?? I fell in love...and have 9 left

Nice smoke?!?! H3LL YEAH!! I'm sure there is much more to it than what I'm about to boil it down to, but I think that the largest reason I've been so hooked on them, besides the consistency and richness of each blend, is the stalk-cut cured wrapper.... adds so much character to the leaf and a durability as well that is just unmatched! That was the only Feral I had so won't be revisiting it for a while, but I enjoyed the h3ll out of it by all means... LP Unico Series is just about impossible to come by at any type of reasonable price around my parts so I rarely have them, but they are always a treat that I savor. Best part is Amanda loves the smell and taste of em so I still get smooched after having those bad boys too!!
