Nice finish! Warms my heart that they appreciated the Trini.

Awesome. This has been great, guys! Thanks for the great read!

This was a great tread to follow along with. I learned a lot from it. It is very interesting how the CC really grows on you. I have found the same thing, from one occasionally to now almost being my go to cigar.

Dan I hope you do another it was great!!

Well... if anyone does want to be considered for the next one, read the first post in this thread and get working on some of the prerequisites (1 decent picture review... maybe even practice by using the format these guys do with 5 photos and have a trade or 2 under your belt).

It may be a couple weeks before I do another one, so you have time.

Excellent job, gents!
Great job Dan for supplying and running this whole thing.

If anyone is looking to do something like this there is the Blind taste Test/ PIF Thread available! (shameless bump)

Great job guys. This was always the first thread I would check when signing on. Now, what am I going to do for the next two week!

Where's Nick with his final weigh-in? I wanna hear the "I'm now a habanos whore" confession... hahaha

This was a very fun read! It was interesting to see the review style differences between the two of them.

Dan, this was an absolute blast. The #10 was a true pleasure to smoke. I think I will have to adjust my purchasing from now on! This cigar was definitely the best of the lot. How long had you had it in your humidor? I loved the flavor. Very complex.

a few months... I really forget when I bought them. 6 months, maybe... maybe less.

I can't afford to be a habanos whore, but I am definitely a habanos whore wannabe

I had only smoked 1 CC before this thread began, and I have now smoked 10 times as many

I will smoke them as often as I can, thanks for the push down THAT slope Dan......

(psst... habanos typically cost less than NCs)
