I don't disagree with the comments above. But, when I came across these the other day, my reaction was 'that band reminds me pf LP, but it looks pretty sharp in its own right'. May not be too original, but I do think they look pretty good. The cigar was similiar - I liked it, but it kept coming up just a little short for me. I liked the pepper and really liked the tease of sweetness, but I think I wanted more of that sweet tobacco taste that kept poking its head out just a little and then disappearing.
