Smoking Cigars Blind... Do the Bands Matter?

Do you remember the Pepsi Challenge?
We do, and we will explain the concept and history behind it as we take that process to the cigar world.
Let's face it as we walk through the humidor a cigar band can catch our eye and causes us to gravitate toward that smoke. We all have friends that a loyal to one brand, but would they be if the didn't know the cigar they were smoking.
In the first hour the boys will smoke two cigars and there is no wrong answer, but will they choose A or B. In the second hour they'll do it again with cigars C vs D. Will we surprise the panel? Will the hosts pick the cigar they normally would without the band? Tune in to this social experiment and see how it all plays out.

The flu is running rampant in the Northeast, and with David G under the weather and unable to taste anything we are pulling a wild card and changing up the show. Originally slated to be a blind taste test today we light up two cigars from The Cigar Authority Care Package.
We have heard it before, so many people want to open a cigar shop of their own. Well we have advice for you as we discuss the do’s and don’t and let you know why you are out of your mind for even considering or dreaming of the idea.
In the first hour we light up a cigar made at the Perdomo Cigar Factory, called Moolah and we will let you know our thoughts on this wallet friendly stick. In the second hour we travel to the Dominican Republic and pull something from the Tabadom factory as we light up the Griffin.
