These caught my eye for some reason when I saw them. Guess I need to get a 5 pack and try them out.

Jared, I got a response out of CI.

I had asked them how long before they get some more in.

"It's really hard to say, we have many orders that have yet to be filled by our supplier. Boxes of 50-xtra and 54 are on our docks now and should be in early next week. What specific size were you looking for?"

Get on the phone and get them 50 extras or 54's heading your way buddy.

I technically won 50's but I like the bigger vitolas better and they said they will substitute.
Thanks Josh

I had the 54 last night. I enjoyed it. Good smoke. Had a tight draw, it seemed in the start and end.

Did you try cutting a little more off from the cap area to see if that helped?

I didn't have any draw issues with mine at all..........:-)

I did not. It was great for more than it wasn't. I will keep it in mind.

If you were in the Rolodex you would not have this problem.:-). I have the latest issue of the Est. 1844 informational guide if you want to read up on them Scott.
Send address.:-)

I'm with Kevin on this one. I enjoyed the first one I had, albeit, nothing to write home about. Revisited these this morning, the 6X50, and must say I was unimpressed. Flavors seemed to be "muted". Maybe I was just expecting more...who knows?

I have noticed big differences in these. One will be great the next will be a bit flat. I have always prefaced my love of these with "for the price". I do think there great for the dollar each (maybe two dollars sometimes) that I give for them. Also the last few shipments seems less exciting than the first ones I got, Maybe different harvest or time might actually do these a favor. Either way I will do my duty as a BOTL and smoke many more in the name of research of coarse. :-)

I just had one of these (50 xtra) this afternoon, and I can't say that I was impressed. It felt like it was fairly loosely rolled, and it's draw was very easy. It tasted fairly sweet, and I think that I could make out caramel and cocoa. I really had to be careful not to draw too fast, or it got hot and a bit harsh.

Not a bad smoke, but nothing great. I might let the remaining sticks sit for a few months and see if they improve.
