Best wishes on the new venture. It's a great thing to have passionate people promoting the hobby through generating excitement and interest in new products.
Never smoked one of Sams cigars and said... hey that is really awful, never. Well constructed smokes with quality tobacco = a quality product that people get value from. Many of us are not large RG fans so it's easy to make a bit of fun over the ... ahem, "marketing license" taken with sweet spots, etc. But we exist in a world where there are truly awful cigars promoted as "deals etc" that folks get burned on over and over again, (think the CI catalog stuff) and that is not the case with these cigars.
Again, best wishes on the new venture Sam and ..... if you ever move to Cuba I'm down for the first shipments.
