Those look really good, where did you order from?These guys showed up today knocking on the front door. I've only had one knuckledragger Aquitaine and one Cromagnon knuckledragger. Both were great. I figured that I had better give them a proper test drive....View attachment 30473
Well done Skip.Dave and Blue Army
We had problems during the rainy season with the Anthropology.
All of are cigars are firm, but the draw shouldn't have been affected the way it was. Our rolling method doesn't leave a lot of room for error and humidity killed us.
If you send me a private message I will replace whatever number of cigars didn't perform for you.
Apologies.

I also ran into a couple of very tight draws in my 5 packs, but thankfully it was only a couple of 'em and they did eventually open up, but the 1st third or so took some effort to smokeTried my first RoMa Crafts this weekend.
Intemperance BA - (Really wanted to try EC because I've generally preferred nearly all Ecuador wrappers over Brazilian) -- Unfortunately my local only had the BA. Burned well, if not razor sharp. Good flavors, but a little flat. Left me wanting more from it. Not bad, by any means. Just a little 'average'.
Cromagnon Anthropology - Was thrilled to find the local carried this size. I've been apprehensive about RoMa because of the large RG's. Regrettably, this cigar had 54RG amount of tobacco wrapped in a 46. May have been the tightest draw I've ever had in a cigar that wasn't plugged. Absolutely loved the flavors, but after an inch I felt like I was sucking a whole cherry through a Dairy Queen straw. I was nervous about using a draw tool because I was afraid that it was so tight, I'd split it. But, I gave in and put the poker in -- not a quarter inch in and the wrapper split....bad. Tried to continue by holding the frayed wrapper in place while gripping it, but it turned into too much work. I really did enjoy the flavors and look forward to trying it again...hopefully one rolled a little better (looser, anyway.)

Sorry I missed this. Excellent offer. Thank you very much. I understand the challenges of dealing in a natural product like cigars and I accept the occassional 'miss' as part of the hobby. I was undeterred, as I've since bought more of your cigars from Podman and your site. That firsty Cromagnon Anthropology was the only 'unsmokeable'. I did have an Aquitaine Gran Toro a week ago that was pretty tight also, but worth the effort until the last couple inches. Outstanding flavors; would have liked to have nubbed it, but it got to be more chore than enjoyment.
You've done a great job with the blends of some fanstastic tobacco. Other than the draw, my only 'complaint' has been the lack of bands; which I've read is being corrected. Not a problem when I pick up a cigar from the box in a B&M and smoke it there, but I'm not concsientious enough about marking everything that goes into my humis.
Thanks again for your outstanding offer.
