It's like Christmas or waiting for a CMP purchase! I can't wait to see what are this month's Cigar Club selection. My first shipment! Any teaser hints?
 
mine may have come today (have a delivery notice from usps) in which case i could give you more than a hint. Since last month i have been getting mine damn early which is fine with me. Maybe because my name falls very close to the beginning of every name list.
 
I just got mine. It is a wrapper club. Cigars featuring different types of wrappers. Oh baby and the feature is an Ashton Heritage.
 
Just got mine too. The candella wrapper looks interesting. Think I'll try that one first. Was a water pillow in your orders?
 
chickenfried i didn't read the newsletter yet (it might say this) but i thought you might like to know that the feature cigar actually has opus filler. So that might be kinda neat for you to compare to an opus x if you have one or can get one.
 
the owner of the local shop told me they are made with the same filler used in the opus.
 
it may have just been something i put in my mind but i could taste some similarities when i smoked them back to back yesterday.
 
It is possible as the filler and binder is grown on the same farm as the opus. I just had not heard it mentioned as fact. Thanks for the info.
 
stop saying how early you guys are getting your cigar of the month shipments - i am still waiting for May to be delivered ! :(
 
In my newbie larval stage I'm very impressionable. So I haven't read the individual cigar reviews in the newsletter. I want to make my own notes then compare them. I did read the intro on wrappers.

For now I'm sticking in the ~$5 range so it'll be a while till I'm lighting up an Opus. But at least I get to taste the opus filler.
