December 09

I would be MORTIFIED if is had paid for the ad on page 110. I am sure the
advertising company said, "NO, it will look great! Trust Us."

It's not the first time I've seen the ad.

They do look more like hotdogs than cigars.....
[Reply]

sort of look like leather.

Dont have the ad, but do you think if they made the ad unshiny that you would smoke a Te Amo????? :-)

Thank you! My wife and I were saying the exact same thing last night. She looked at those cigars and thought they were made out of plastic or something. Those pictures of the Te-Amo have been HORRIBLE the last few magazines I have seen ads in.

Obviously somebody does Bob. Te Amo has been around as long as I have been smoking cigars.

I've seen the ad a few times. They sure do look weird and undesirable.
[Reply]

Well, at least they taste good. :-)
[Reply]

Does it really matter how bad that photo is? As Te-Amo's paying for the ad, all they want is that "93" rating from CA. :-)
[Reply]

I've seen the ad several times and every time I have to ask myself if they did it on purpose to make them look more oily

It looks like every cigar pictured in the JR rags. :-)

I haven't seen the Te-Amo ad but now you mention the JR adverts I know exactly what you are talking about.

Well heck at least it's a cigar ad. If I wanted to read 50 pages about watches and suits, I'd open up my Esquire.
[Reply]

pics or it didnt happen.... lol

BTW, have you been on JRcigars.com in a while??? all the cigars look like they've been dipped in vasoline!
[Reply]

Those cigars looks horrible....almost like a plastic tubo that Garcia y Vega come in. :-)

/\ /\ Don't laugh, I had an in-law a couple years ago get me those for Christmas. I had to lie and pretend I enjoyed them when they asked me a few weeks later how the cigars they bought me were. :-)
