Thanks for that; they have some online folks that will take care of you as well. Am going to pickup several of their Rose of Sharon Lanceros to hand out for the upcoming annual FOG gathering. Gets good reviews as one for someone not regularly into them, or who might be getting back into cigars, with very good flavor but nothing in your face & about a $9-10 price point.

They were a bit light for my taste and I was disappointed after seeing some positive reviews, too. I liked the Firethorns and Kudzus, and would be open to trying the others.

Thanks for that as well. No one around this fire circle are cigar people - but it has a long-but-good day ceremonial bent to it almost. Maybe I'll get a few in a sampler of some kind & we'll pass 'em around since I don't know enough to know what I don't know.

I’ve had to burn a Backwoods, White Owl and Swisher on the road. But, that was many, many moons ago. I would not recommend them except when that is only what’s available. Otherwise, Padron all day...any day.
