The LP Dirty Rat was just reviewed by CA...

[BrooksW]

Their score? An 88.

My thoughts on this cigar are well documented, but I fail to see how it scored AT LEAST a 90 (on their "I only smoke an inch of each cigar" scale)...

Thoughts?

That's why you are in a grumpy mood.

In other news, a Davidoff product got something that started with a 9, which is rather rare.

 

[blooz4u]

I don't know that I've ever agreed much with CA... probably won't start now :grin:

 

[megladon8]

I really don't like this magazine.

My uncle gave me an issue for Christmas. I understand that cigars are a "luxury item", but I feel like this magazine is promoting the "Old Boys Club" of rich white men with nothing better to do with their money than show off how much of it they have.

Maybe when the boys over at C.A. palate's are a little more refined...

LOL, or when they buy a couple more ad's in the magazine.

You know, a lot of people expected maybe Gordon "Cutback" Mott or David "Jungle Death" Savona would make the right calls this year, but what CA was saying is, Hey! You know, we let this place go bogus, so if we make some bogus rules - pronto - we'll be bogus more too! Get it?

Yeah those dudes are fags....

:skew:

 

[SmokeProper]

88?...thought that score was reserved for Gurkha?

 

[Cigar Cowboy]

Yeah those dudes are fags....

Yeah and the Rat is a man's smoke :stretchgr

This thread makes me laugh!

This thread makes me laugh!

:yes:

 

[danthebugman]

Eh...what do I care, if the Rat flies under the radar that means they'll be easier to get. Don't really care what CA says, I love this cigar :awholelot.

I'm surprised they rated it that high... Smoked about 6-7 now and still not very impressed.

 

[SergeantStogie]

This makes me angry. Thats all I was able to type out of the 100 or so thoughts that are popping in my head right now. I really hope JD and SS and Co save themselves the money and don't bend to advertise with them.

Yep, at least Drew named it right as it tastes like dirt to me.

 

[La Chupacabra]

So that means a Te-Amo world series Cuba scored higher than a
LP Dirty Rat.....UMMMMM....BULLSHIT.
CA scores on the amount of money spent on advertising in thier magazine.
There scores are rubbish.

 

[MU Mike]

There scores are rubbish.

Same could be said for virtually any review a person doesn't agree with.

Point Taken.
