Tesa Cigars Tasters Package (Derailed Edition)

[Cigary43]

The 10th day of Christmas lineup of 10 Reserves has my name on it....love a Brazilian wrapper and what it says about the tobaccos.

Tenth Day of Christmas: 10 Reserva Real 5.5 x 52 for 30% Off $54 plus s/h...still a great deal. Think I just talked myself into this. All blends in the TESA line are blended by native Chicagoan Chris Kelley who happens to be 27 ( or thereabouts ) years old...nearly blew my mind that at this age he's already making a name for himself. Imagine with a few more years what this guy can do!

Hoshneer, Any idea what the ten different varieties used in the puritos are? Thanks

I will ask and if I here back I will post it up bro.

 

[Hoshneer]

Okay, this is what he said.

These are the individual puritos.

Criollo 98: Jalapa - seco/viso/ligero
Criollo 98: Esteli - seco/viso/ligero
Nicaraguan binder - viso priming
Brazilian arapiraca
Connecticut shade
Ecuador Habano

I love this idea, and have wanted to try their cigars since I first came across their website.

This would aid in my ongoing cigar education.

What do you guys think; good idea for a boutique brand?

I think it's a great idea and I'll be looking to check this out when it's available. Any idea when that will be? Never tried these, sounds like you dig them. What's your favorite blend?

They are supposed to available by the end of the week. My favorite blend u
Is the 312 and after that is the Reserva Real and the Anna.

That sounds cool! I got their sampler a few weeks ago and am waiting to start hitting those! My buddy is a huge fan and goes there regularly, I plan on frequenting that spot when I visit and move back to Chicago!

Thank you for this info. I was kind of hoping they'd include sancti spiritus and pelo de oro. Nevertheless it's an idea that's long overdue. Hopefully some other makers will pick up on it

I think it's a cool idea.

Keep us posted on when the set is actually released for purchase!

 

[Hoshneer]

He said today it is in the store but not on the website. So I am guessing if you call them you can purchase it.

 

[Hoshneer]

I just found out my friend John ordered this for me for Christmas.. I am so damn excited I can hardly contain myself now. Woohoo! Damn... People sometimes just amaze me. My friends are truly the best.

 

[JKlavins]

That is awesome! How are you supposed to share the puritos? Pass it around? Cut them up?

 

[JKlavins]

I could see a cool gathering to share it, everyone buys their own set of the cigars in the box, and they share the one set of puritos

Damn, that's freakin' cool. How about giving us a little review of each when you smoke them?

 

[Hoshneer]

Yeah, I am thinking I will do that.

 

[Hoshneer]

I guess it depends on how close your friends are that you smoke with. Lol.
My group we sometimes will share a few puffs if we are interested but others may be turned off by that.

I'd puff puff pass! You don't have the herps do you Rexy???

 

[Hoshneer]

Nope!

 

[SouthWestSmoke]

That's a great friend! If I can't order via phone I might have family stop on by to pick up a set for me. I think this is a great idea to get some insight on what each leaf truly offers.
