Default 8-5-8 Sungrown

So has anyone seen the 2010 8-5-8 Sungrown? The only made 500 boxes this year. I did pick up a few sticks. If they are anything like the 05's, these should be great. I like them better than the 8-5-8 Rosados...

If you see them, buy them. The are in the regular 8-5-8 box, but have a black foot band like the other Sungrown Fuentes.

Saw Tom Ufer smoking one this past weekend so I guess Cigar Cave has them. Haven't smoked one yet though. I'll see if I can't nab one! (and yes, I am following you around the internet lol...)

A few days ago I had a rosado sungrown, it was awful. The burn sucked and the flavor was very hay/grass like and remained the same the whole way through.

I have one that I got through a trade. I think it's from 05 or maybe 06.

Smoked several now. I find they need some time, but a great stick. They pick up a little power around the halfway mark, and by the nub they're plenty strong (slightly less powerful than a CainF to me), but they smoke like razors and have that good sweet tangy flavor.

Honestly, between the Magnum R line and the most recent 858SG release, I've been wondering what's up at Fuente...I mean these are good smokes! Previously, I hadn't had a decent Fuente in about 5 years (back when the Short Story was phenomenal in ways I cannot describe).
