So after being a member of the Privada Rare monthly club for 9 months I gotta say- that at most only 3 cigars I got are in the “really good” category, 2-3 had construction issues, and the rest were just- meh. Factor in the owner is a pompous douche who has gone after some the industry’s greatest houses/blenders is making me wanna jump ship. I understand that not every cigar I’m going to get will be in my flavor profile and some cigars will be plugged but I’m done. What’s everyone’s experience with Cigar Fed? I’m thinking I’m gonna go that route!

This month, I jump ship on Privada Rare and Farm Rolled. The Farm Rolleds were usually better than the Rares.
I've been a Cigar Fed COTM member since 2015. IMO, same concept as Privada, less buffoonery. As far as cigar names, Cigar Fed is about on par with Privada. Can't say I've not gotten a bad cigar or one I haven't liked, but they are few and far between. They will not always be limited or one and done cigars. If you like trying new cigars that are not mainstream, give them a try.
