Actually I saw them at the show TWOfive, but they had half the paper so you can actually see the cigar. It's a Berger & Argenti cigar along with the Exile Wired and new Entubar (peep that gimmick! if you have not heard or seen it yet). I agree I don't see them anymore and actually liked the Exile sticks when they first dropped. Meh, I guess I don't know... but $30 bucks a box? Point me in the right direction man!

It was in the cigar deals a couple weeks ago, maybe a couple months now lol. They were on closeout from superior cigar I believe....... All gone

And I believe the half paper half not is a whole new blend.. Could be wrong but their old lines / blends are no longer being made

What kind of paper are those sticks wrapped in? Looks too thick to be a rice paper like on Fonseca sticks.

I decided to have one today to check out the burn issues. It was a nice day so I decided to take my dog for a long walk and then, maybe 10 min into it realized I should definitely brought a water or something lol.

It didn't smoke as much as I would have liked at a pace of about a puff every minute or so but when I sped it up a little bit, maybe every 30-45 seconds it smoked perfectly without any bitterness.

At about 1/2 way I still had a perfect burn, no peanut butter flavors lol

Towards the end.. As you can see i didn't really nub it lol, having no drink was catching up fast at this point.

Overall it was another pleasant experience but it is close to perfect when I pair it up with a Dogfishhead 60min or equivalent.

WOW! I would have never guessed that one. I have seen them around here and was very curious with the newspaper wrapping and all. I would guess from shipping the humidity was low. MAybe I should wait over the weekend in case the others are dry. Give em some time to absorb some moisture. But wow exile.

Thanks for checking the burn on one for me. Maybe it is just the way I light them. I use a torch like everyone else so who knows. As for the peanut butter taste I may have had a bit of a hard time describing it an started to imagine things but I would still say there is a nutty taste mixed with others.

Not a whole lot to go on with this one. I dont think I have ever smoked a stick that tasted like a heath bar. I dont think the wrapper is dark enough to be a Pepin JJ maddy. Looks like a dark red corojo wrapper from the pics so I am going to guess Perdomo Habano Corojo. Stabbing in the dark
