Sorry for the delay. My account of my trip and pics are live on my blog as are some of my tasting notes on the goodies that I got to try while there, a bunch of concept blends. I will keep posting my tasting notes as I slowly make my way through the rest.

After reading about your trip and all the cigars you smoked, I do not have the words to fully express the jealousy I feel right now. :wink: I love the Navy, but I want your job!

The reviews sound very promising.....but I was unable to access the pictures of the facility. You are truely a blessed person and I think everyone on this forum is envious of your endevors.

I am thinking about orgainizing a herf at their headquarters early next year. It is perfect for it as they have a large space to work with and the food possibilities are endless. Anyone in? I am thinking a modest ticket fee to cover food and drinks and a goodie bag as well as some negociated rates at nearby hotels. Stay tuned.

Very nice, and yes, I'm jealous too!

I'd like to hear more about the MX3! I love the MX2's.

Alex, The herf sounds like fun. I'm not sure I could join you but I'd sure like to try!!!

I'm a little disappointed that I couldn't get a look at your pics on your blog--Said they needed a sign-in!!

Thanks for posting your reviews.

Bump....

Well, the year is almost over, and noting that Alex had said early next year he was thinking about a herf at CAO in Nashville........

just thought maybe.....

I've never been to Nashville and the girlfriend and I want to go so I'd love to plan a trip and include this in my plans.

Next fall could work - will you be traveling by DHL, Chris? If so can you swing by Jersey?

Yes, I'll need an empty jar and some air holes, but I think I can swing that.

Sounds great! Do we have to smoke CAO sticks? :twisted:

Just kidding. I'll see if I can drag Sleeper along.
