Andrew, your tube shows it should be delivered today but it was in Philly this morning so it might be tomorrow. Let me know when it arrives, thanks for all your hard work and documentation in this thread!

I'm pumped to try a few come December. Would love to get together with all you Rochester guys, but Sundays aren't the best for me.

These look amazing by the way. When you mentioned in my thread about rolling your own, I never imagined anything this legit.

One of the first Dominican blends i made, along with a Session Lager


Burned perfect all the way through, great flavors, Got some hints of Vanilla, earthy tones, and towards the end noticed a little anise.

Drew,

I'd be willing to pay for shipping if you'd be willing to send me 1? I'm a newb, and not really good at reviewing, but I'd love to try one and share my thoughts.

So this is a mini that i made... dont want to use the name "Nub"


I just purchased some Maduro wrappers, so i will have a Dominican filled with a maduro wrapper shortly.

I have taken into consideration the sale of Roxy cigars, as it is difficult to sell them not having the proper licenses, I figure i will sell the Cigar bands only, and the "tobacco is not for consumption"

Fivers will be 25 shipped in the small flat rate box. How does that sound?

How about the "Roxy Stub" instead of "nub"?
