How was it?

Been on my order list for a while, but seems there aren't many vendors that carry them, and the few that do have been out of stock for quite a while, except for some UK vendors and their prices are just outrageous from there due to their taxes.

They have gotten pretty favorable reviews from what I have read various places.

Plus its right in my preferred size range and smoke time.

I had one a few months back after getting home from vacation (I picked it up while on vacation) and noticed it was a bit harsh at times so I left the other one to sit for the last two and a half months to see what would happen and I had it tonight and I’ve got to say not harsh at all. I don’t think age had as much to do with it as sitting at a decent temp and humidity but much better the second time around

How does the M2 compare?

Have one in my cart for my next nc order as they get good reviews un various places.

Haven't seen the M1 for sale yet, but honestly haven't specifically looked yet

I’ve only had the M1, but I will say it’s definitely a good stick. Consistent burn and flavor. I picked this up while on vacation I haven’t seen to much about them off from that.

The show was outstanding! I had never been to Red Rocks before so I had no idea what all the fuss was about. I understand now.

The Black Crowes were spot on. Vocals were excellent and the music was tight!

Really glad I got the opportunity to see them
Nice.
Glad you had a good time.

Red Rocks is a gorgeous area, and gets some great bands.

I've seen a show of theirs on tv from live there and they sounded great. Seem to be a really good band live unlike some.

Dave Matthews Live at Red Rocks was a favorite album of mine, and I've seen a show from him there on tv too, and seems like another great live artist

Thanks.

Will have to look around for the M1 as it too gets good reviews everywhere

It was ok. Only a day off the truck, should have gave it a bit more time.

Thanks for responding.

In my experience, nc vendors seem to be
less likely to ship over humidified smokes than cc vendors, likely due to the known shorter transit time, so I have broken my 30 days rest and acclimation time quite a few times, especially with nc's, and haven't noticed much difference from 30 days rested ones.

Could be luck, or my particular preferred nc vendor though.

How long do you usually try to wait?

I like to give them a couple weeks but sometimes I just cant resist the temptation.
