It's actually a complete new blend. It's the new PA broadleaf wrapper, the new "hybrid" Sumatra binder and fillers from Nica and Dominican. I prefer the BI over it, but it's not a bad smoke at all. I haven't been impressed with the new RoMa offerings. The Volstead, for me, ends up very bitter around the half way point. The new cromag PA just isn't doing it for me as well
It's your buddy from that lives in LA that you sent a killer package to a few months back but stopped smoking cause now I'm addicted to nicotine lol
Tends to cool off here at night so it’s a year round thing. Not during the daytime during summer though
Glad I'm not the only one. Thought I was weird about it.
I know people that left CA for places like TN, they don’t smoke during the summer anymore either 😂
No. My box storage is jam packed & I can’t fit anything else.
Yea man, I'm just not digging the new stuff much. The Clovis is good, but nowhere near the BI level. I haven't even ordered the new La Maestranza.
I typically smoked the a ton year round, but this summer with work and the heat, kicked my ass and I've barely smoked. Once it cools down here, I set my hut up and can smoke comfortably
11 boxes 😉. I'll smoke one this year and 1 box the next 10 years. Just like the Monster Mash boxes. And what the hell is all this "out of room" shit?? I'm gonna end up sending you all a 79qt bin with a box of boveda.
Good to see others feel the same way. I tried smoking some this summer when I'd go fishing, but the temps were in the 90's and it just wasn't enjoyable.
It really isn't. After working outside all day, the last thing I want to do, is smoke in the heat or go to the local lounge. This is the first year since I started being a near daily smoker, that the heat stopped me from smoking. Next year, for sure, I'm getting a cheap fishing hut and trying it out with a portable AC unit.
I like the cut of your jib. I cant wait for temps in the 70's here (and water temps) so I can get back out to slay come crappie & red ears.
I passed on it as well. Hopefully Roma has a better line up for 2025.
I hope. I think the Volstead was my biggest let down. I love a good Sumatra, and it's just not good. Maybe after some more rest, but I've tried another recently, and get the same bitterness. Doesn't matter what vitola either, always bitter right around the halfway point. I had a bad feeling about them even before they were released and only got 2 boxes, which, as you know, is rare for me.
You get the heavy tumbler?
Those whisky glasses are delicate. Company doesn’t get to use them 😂. Unless it’s just a cigar guy that understands not to put cubes in his fucking scotch 😂
