My smoke tonight:

Pretty tasty so far - cocoa and sweetness and a bit of pepper

Jay, thanks for the review. I'll have to keep my eyes open.

Ken, great smoke and flavors. The only downfall is that it is one dimensional. But oh so good.

Yep, but it is a good dimension :-)

I agree, the Smoke didn't really change a lot

Only if you know and are comfortable wth his source. Personally I wouldn't take a chance, I'd stick to a known retailer. It would be helpful to see a picture of the bottom of the box and a closeup of the labels.

He's a close friend and very wealthy. I don't doubt they are what he's saying they are. I'll get some more pictures

Just to be clear, Jeff is not implying that your friend is being dishonest. The question comes, where did he acquire the sticks from? Can he trace them to a reputable dealer, or were they a gift from someone?

Cuban cigars are so often faked, unless you are 100% confident of the source, you are better off spending your money elsewhere.

I understood what he was saying, I was at a stop light and my reply came off a little bitchier than intended

I apologize my response came off like that, it wasn't intentional.
He said Theyre in sealed boxes that come with a serial # that can be cross referenced on the companies website. he'll cut a butt open soon to show me the tabbco is long straws.

And the bottom of the box

They look legit, run the serial numbers and get them if you want them. FYI all the 2014 I've had lately have been great. It's hard to see the date looks like June of 2010 or 2016.

2016. Maybe I'll do a karma or something and one of you guys can be the judge.

Grilled some chicken kabobs and a few pork chops that we needed to fix up. Was tasty.

Got all dishes cleared away and decided to give this one a go:

First inch tasted like a chocolate milk. Fantastic.

Then...

Tasted just like chewing on a cedar tree rolled in wet dirt/earth. Wanted so much to like it, but...

Gerry, this Bull is awesome! So smooth, creamy. Chocolate milk is the predominate flavor. Thanks again!

The Verocu is an ok stick. Tat makes better sticks. However, the Verocu #9 is the one I go to in that series. It closely resembles the Chucky from the Pudgy Monster sampler box.

Glad you like it, Pete. Just ordered 15 more.

I agree on the Verocu. I had a few so decided to try one. Better sticks to try, IMO.
