5 Vegas Series A Apostle

Not a fan of the review. Hard to follow due to the amount of um’s. I did not really get anything from it.

DJ-I am currently a sophmore at WCSU in Danbury, CT. I started smoking cigars about 5 years ago, when I was a sophmore in high school. At first I was smoking the machine-mades but within a few months I was smoking a lot of the hoyo de monterrey excaliburs. At the moment i’m a huge fan of the ultra full-bodied smokes. I really like the cain maduros, the man o war ruination, the LFD double ligero, patel brothers,etc…But I can get into the medium bodied stuff like the perdomo grand crus and the cx2s and mx2s by CAO. In a rare instance i’ll smoke the milder stuff like the AVOs and the havana sun grown by alec bradley. I smoke as often as I can but my wallet’s been a little light lately so I’ve been smoking 3-5 per week.
BG-I can appreciate your honesty. Truthfully, I was dissapointed myself by my delivery on the video. It was my first review and I was nervous so despite knowing what I wanted to say previous to turning the camera on, once the camera was turned on I developed ‘a case of the ums’. Sorry man, I’ll try and write out a little something for myself before I turn the camera on so my next video doesn’t have that problem.
Chekk12-actually negative feedback would be infinitely more productive than what you wrote because it would be, um, feedback. Good one! You’re a clever boy, aren’t you?

No prob, bg! I’m happy to receive any sort of comment about the percieved weak points of the review. This is new to me, I know its not perfect, but as long as people like you are telling me what they did and didn’t like I can learn how to make it better and more accessable and informative in the future…My ambition is to work on making the videos more like those on the stogiereview.com, with music and credits and sharper editing. We’ll see how it goes.

I won’t comment on this particular video because where I’m standing right now, in my kitchen preparing that first cup of coffee, I can’t access it. The way I usually READ Cigar Inspector is on my phone via the website. Well my phone will not play this particular video and that means I have to go sit at my computer upstairs to see the review. Even if the video would play not sure I would watch it. I have see video reviews before and they are never as good as the written ones. The funny thing is that when I read Ernie’s responses to the comments about the video I get the sense that he could write a much better review than he could ever shoot.

Thanks Inspector. Different strokes… And not that I have anything against the moving pictures, it’s what pays my bills but as Ernie mentions it is really tough to get your thoughts articulated when that camera is on. Come to think of it a while ago you posted a video review, I think on You Tube, (Hot Chick something or other?) of a young woman reviewing the Oliva V, I enjoyed that video quite a lot.
