I don't know if its genius level marketing. On the one hand its fairly transparent as a set-up, rather than an actual inventory control mistake. On the other, people like the cigar, and people love a good rare cigar hunt, so the cigars will sell.

I'd grade it 85/100 as a marketing effort. We've seen this done better. :)

Sorry to change the subject Johnathan but any news you can release about the Dirty Rat. Release date? Will is be released every year or just one time? Price? Etc. Thank you for dropping in on us.

Rats are for the IPCPR show, Saka's pretty psyched cause they came out nice. Still not sure on all details, inlcuding price.

Got some going to Tim from the Event on the 1st.

Best,
JD

I am waiting for the Dirty Rat. I had the privilege of trying one. With the great generosity of Steve Saks. One awesome cigar I never had the privilege to try the Flying Pig. I heard it was great so I have to take their word for it.

The Rat is an amazing stick, I was very happy when I heard they were actually being released :)

Guys,

Thanks for the compliments on the Dirty Rats. Glad to say that we just got out the Rats that I promised Tim from the event on July 1st.

Heading to Nica shortly to select tobacco for the Nosotros Illusione. Its going to be interesting to watch Dion continue to develop this brand, as he is really doing some interesting blending at the factory.

Hope that everyone is doing well.

I love the Nosotros Corona. It is perfect for the ride into work.

To me, the Pigs are the perfect smoke at the moment for my current palette, and time available. Bought two more boxes from the event.

However, I am very excited to get my T52 Toro in. Oh yeah, and a few Dirty Rats...sweet!

Tim, his staff, and JD...thanks for getting us involved with the event.

It was a hell of an event Jonathan. I had a great time working with you! Those JD#4s are fantastic.
