Forum Blend Questions

Rain

Here are the ingerdients in the 2012 forum blend. Wrapper: Sumatra Ecuador Oscuro (7th cut) Binder: San Andres Mexico Filler 1: 35% Habano Esteli Ligero Filler 2: 35% Habano Condega Ligero Filler 3: 20% Habano Jalapa Viso Filler 4: 10% Habano Ometepe Seco So what type of flavor profile can we expect? Also, what does "7th cut" mean?

Cigars made and napping in the cold room at the factory. Still on pace cone end of Q1 beginning of Q2

That was on 2/19, so figure that's a decent estimate.

not necessarily... My experience has been 6 months off the rolling table is adequate. AJ may be different, depends on the blend though. With condega and ometepe it probably will for my tastes.

Has anyone noticed the new San Lotano The Bull? The wrapper is being described as Sumatra Ecuador Oscuro. My guess is that this is either the same wrapper for our blend or the same as the MoW Armada. Or maybe both. However, Matt you would know better than I.

So what's the next step with the forum blend? Do we let them rest a week or two and then come back and give comments? or wait longer?

see post in ciagar review area. I am worried this is going to get spread out all over the plcae. These are just phase 1. Like any blender, this is going to be a process. The fun here is getting to be part of the process!
