    My buddy’s wife raised a couple grass fed calves to sell along with their regular corn/rationed fed butcher calves. I buy/barter beef from them, anyway she gave me some of the grass fed to try. They have a weird wang to them, I choked one down but the rest are going to be dog food. My brother ate one & threw the 2nd one away. I told her to take them to the city & sell them those yuppies will love them but I don’t want anymore of them.

    Haven’t had a “real” cigar in a while.
    I’ve got a lot of reading to do to get caught up on this thread! Diving into that cigarbid site now…..

    As close as I can tell, they have been my coolidor for probably longer than 4 years. They must have mellowed quite a bit over the years because if they (5-pak) were that good when I first got them, they would've been gone! So they aged quite well.

    As far as packing a punch, no sir-not at all. I was raking gravel/rocks while having it and thought for sure it would be a mistake doing some work while having a cigar.

    How was the Oliva? For me they have been hit and miss. Quit buying them, cause of the tightness.

    I was good, wasn’t a tight draw at all, very smooth, I did get a bit of a dry mouth leathery taste with it but it wasn’t unpleasant

    And. We’re. Off.
    Not sure if this is a good starter, but I’m enjoying it

    I really liked those around 5-6 years ago, don't know why I quit them. I think there may be a couple left mixed in with the odds and ends somewhere.
