Well the good news for those in this pass is that I don't have any more of those horrid sticks. Two different lines, two different vitolas, two days of wasted cigar time. Meanwhile, right before i smoked the second one, I was considering the "deal" on JR where you get 8 of the blended by AJF R&J free if you buy a box of R&J. I found a box that would've come to $30 something. But then I slapped myself. I believe the AJ sticks would be good, but I'd still be stuck with ten turds that taste like sour brown paper grocery bags mixed with burned graham cracker.
