- 3:37> Good ol’ Boy Barker>And they are valued.
- 3:38> >And we'll be rating these cigars on sip suds and smokes using our 1 to 5 ratings, 5 being the best, plus our signature sounds. Here is one of those examples now, which is number three. I would smoke this again.
- 3:54> Good ol’ Boy Barker>So let me ask you on the value of our information that we give out, uh, is that like the. We follow the XRP standard.
- 3:59> >That's the same dartboard methodology that you follow for all of your key decision making.
- 4:04> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Oh man, that means it's very valuable.
- 4:06> >Yes, because all.
- 4:07> Good ol’ Boy Barker>I mean, my whole dartboard is hundreds.
- 4:09> >Do you, are you right handed and throw with your left?
- 4:11> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Well, I actually throw with my feet.
- 4:15> >That would explain an awful lot. Yeah, I'm just, you know, there's, there's some moment about this that is just visually impairing.
- 4:25> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Yeah, well just wait, you'll see it later because I got a decision to make later.
- 4:28> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin Hey Rich, tell us about, uh, tell these, talk to these newbies.
- 4:31> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin you covered on our Cigar 101 episodes where all of this cigar speak will be decoded. Just search for sip suds, cigars 101 and that episode called Smell my Foot right up or follow the links in our show notes all.
- 4:49> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Ah, right. Well, good old boy Mike.
- 4:52> >Well, we had a chance to smoke all these cigars in advance and most of us are going off the notes we recorded at the time. Some of us will be using the Mark the Barger dartboard methodology where we might recall some of that information and proportional to the dosage flowing through our system at that particular moment, we're rocking.
- 5:12> Good ol’ Boy Barker>At about 10 milligrams. Yeah, just a, just a nice even kill here today.
- 5:18> >Which button requires that?
- 5:20> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Mhm. I wish to register a complete probably. So there you go. Robert, you got a little bit of background on him.
- 5:27> Speaker C>M right. I get to read the background for Fortalezi Libre.
- 5:29> >Oh wait, we have background music here.
- 5:31> Speaker C>Oh, background music. I get to read the background for Fort Elyse Libre. I can handle big words, I think, and not like Canadians. I know your first inclination is yet another product from Santiago.
- 5:50> Speaker C>And yet it's not Tam Bril. In the Dominican Republic region hosts some of the finest cigar factories in the world built around the fields and have served already messing up, built around the fields that have grown tobacco for generations.
- 6:04> Speaker C>Farming is a science founded on love of the land.
- 6:07> Speaker C>And there's nowhere more evident than the fields of Tamborial. It's the home of some of the iconic brands in the Doctor, like El Artista Tobacco, Rilla Valencia and La Palma.
- 6:22> Good ol’ Boy Barker>I got Tobacco Lara, Placencia Tobacco Lara. Plus.
- 6:25> Speaker C>Well, I added a comma. I added a comma.
- 6:28> Good ol’ Boy Barker>The English is hard.
- 6:29> Speaker C>It can be. You won't find a Chagui Primovano outside of the Doctor. We wish.
- 6:40> Good ol’ Boy Barker>I would have butchered that, too.
- 6:42> Speaker C>It is Chaguy, though. In 19, uh, in 2017, Fort Lisa Libre selected El Hoyito in the Dominican Republic, a tributary to the brands that make it all. I can't even read that tributary. Another brand made. We're going to do that a bit again.
- 7:01> Good ol’ Boy Barker>It's factory. We going to do it again? Yeah, negative.
- 7:04> >Uh, Ghost Rider. The pattern is full, so onward we go. The fact that you got 92% of those words correct is that's scoring you way above average.
- 7:14> Good ol’ Boy Barker>That's right.
- 7:15> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin podcast is just the.
- 7:19> >Fact that you, you know, almost out of your mouth without injuring yourself was a good start.
- 7:25> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Step in the right direction. I'll tell you what we're going to do. Let's just jump right into this. Rich, take us away with the avalanche.
- 7:32> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin That's.
- 7:36> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin
- 7:38> Speaker C>Hang on a second.
- 7:38> >Pass me the duct tape.
- 7:39> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Yeah.
- 7:41> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin Libre released. You might think we would go in order of when the product was released or alphabetically or maybe the phase of the moon. But remember, we are using the Barger Dartmoor methodology.
- 7:55> Good ol’ Boy Barker>That's right.
- 7:57> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin Dominican binder and fillers from the doctor, obviously. The company says it took 18 months to develop this blend, which it describes as not yet.
- 8:10> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Well, not yet, which it describes as mild in both body and strength. It is made at the, uh, Tabaracaro, uh, Bacalero Tobacco, Lero El Hoya Hoyita in Tamboril, Dominican Republic. The slight pepper from the wrapper highlights the beauty of the Dominican filler and binder taking you places you would not expect from your grandfather's Connecticut.
- 8:39> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Well, I didn't find Grandpa. Maybe his ashes were in this one. I don't know. Uh, but, uh, I definitely didn't find Grandpa. Oh.
- 8:49> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin Which Color was this label?
- 8:52> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin The white. Oh yeah, the white label. Yeah. See I smoked that for breakfast this morning.
- 8:56> Announcer>Did you?
- 8:58> Good ol’ Boy Barker>A little bit of it, yeah.
- 9:00> >You know, do you use your right hand or your left hand?
- 9:03> Good ol’ Boy Barker>I use my right hand this time. I just have, uh.
- 9:06> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Here's, here's. Here's what I think. So, uh, we're going to touch on this a little later. You know, newer companies put out cigars. It's hard to get it right every time. Right. They didn't get it right with this one.
- 9:24> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin I don't like this Connecticut. That's just, just me. I just. It was too dirty. It was like too much must. It didn't have that like Connecticut mouth feel that you want know? It was like. It was like smoking a dried ah. Dirt.
- 9:41> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin found it very bland, mild way. It was very mild.
- 9:49> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Um, positive. I mean the construction was okay.
- 9:52> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Yeah.
- 9:52> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin blenders, they got good construction. Construction issue, did not have a burn issue with it. Um, but I just did not find it very.
- 10:03> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Yeah.
- 10:03> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin Robert, what'd you think?
- 10:07> Speaker C>I kind of found it unmemorable.
- 10:09> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Yeah.
- 10:10> Speaker C>Um, I even paired it with a coffee. I thought that would go great. And um, it wasn't bad.
- 10:14> >Somehow I don't think that was the word they were looking for in the marketing meeting. No, let's go for unmemorable.
- 10:21> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Yeah. It's just your grandpa's Connecticut.
- 10:24> >Yeah, that's correct.
- 10:25> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Yeah. Well, they nailed it with that one. What, what are we thinking here? We'll give it a two.
- 10:31> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Yep. Now again, starting a company is hard.
- 10:39> Good ol’ Boy Barker>They're 2017 and they've had some ups and downs themselves, right?
- 10:42> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin We've had some struggles name wise and had to rebrand a couple times that. We'll talk about that later too. Um, but all in all, we'll be back shortly.
- 11:04> Julianna>Rolling clouds and crashing surf Iridescent dunes reflecting by the line of the rising glowing moon.
- 11:19> Julianna>Seashore mesmerizing night breeze hypnotizing We've come across these back roads none too soon look to the left, to the right Keep your eyes on the road, my darling Wondering if we're only passing through. Open roads and open windows My hand is yours forever sweet love our eyes.

- 12:04> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin We just went over the avalanche. We gave it the sip suds rating of, uh, 2. Uh, and we just realized that Rich brought his reading glasses today. Oh, man. It's a different world. Grandpa's got his readers. All right, well, uh, let's go, Mike. Tell us about the Sun Country.
- 12:26> >So, uh, the sun country is handmade in the Dominican Republic at Tobacco El Horta. Uh, these cigars can incorporate well aged Dominican pilato Cubano in liguero or the double filler and binder with age Mexican San Andreas wrapper leaf blended into the filler for a little something something something special.
- 12:50> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Yeah.
- 12:50> >This full body core is then wrapped in a creamy Ecuadorian slay shade wrapper according like a, uh, dichika on the side of the roll, uh, to create, um, a balance of flavors that has been experienced as no words can truly capture what we have done here.
- 13:08> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Well, we're gonna try.
- 13:09> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin words.
- 13:13> >It's an unmemorable.
- 13:15> Good ol’ Boy Barker>So named after.
- 13:16> >Named after a badass bull. Wait a second.
- 13:19> Good ol’ Boy Barker>I got.
- 13:20> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin
- 13:21> >That's right. Sorry.
- 13:23> >>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin It was called sun country will definitely brighten your day.
- 13:29> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Now, I do want to mention a cool aspect, though.
- 13:31> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin All of these names of the cigars that he uses are famous bulls that have been ridden by people. And now let me tell you about them. So really, when you Kind of.
- 13:50> >The sound that I made while I was enjoying your Sun Country.
- 13:53> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Yeah. Uh, I, uh, I really. When you were starting to read that part about the. The tobacco. Lara. I read that in, like, a Japanese voice. It was like, oh, cool. I was like, I don't remember Japan ever making cigarettes. But anyway. Well, I digress.
- 14:09> >Japanese and Spanish accents, you know, M for sure.
- 14:13> >>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin
- 14:15> Good ol’ Boy Barker>That's right. For sure.
- 14:16> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin So what'd you think about the Sun Country, Robert?
- 14:21> Good ol’ Boy Barker>So this.
- 14:21> Speaker C>I've had the sun country before. Uh, when it first came out, I really liked it back then. I thought it was a very unique Connecticut this time around.
- 14:28> Speaker C>I don't know if my taste buds are changing. It's a little bit less. You're getting older body. I am.
- 14:33> Speaker C>Taste buds are dying. It m. Was still enjoyable.
- 14:37> >But wait a second. Are you saying at my advanced stage, they're just dead as rough?
- 14:43> Speaker C>You have no taste buds at this point.
- 14:44> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Have you listened to your opinions?
- 14:45> >Oh, my gosh.
- 14:47> Speaker C>Needs more pepper and salt.
- 14:49> >No more chili for you.
- 14:52> Speaker C>I actually enjoyed this.
- 14:54> Good ol’ Boy Barker>This cigar, so I didn't hate this cigar. I. I didn't hate it, but it wasn't my favorite. Well, I'll tell you that.
- 15:00> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin this, to me, is just as light as any Connecticut out there. Um, I think, you know, he talks about it being very balanced, flavorful, and this, that and the other, but, you know, um, but it wasn't.
- 15:13> Good ol’ Boy Barker>You're talking about the bull or the cigar. Yes.
- 15:19> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin Yeah. Uh, you know, I found it to be. It had a little bit of musk to it, a little bit of pepper.
- 15:27> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Wasn't terrible. Um, I definitely. It's like almost something you would walk a dog with.
- 15:35> >Yeah.
- 15:35> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Mow the yard. Something you don't have to pay attention to. Construction was great.
- 15:39> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin Still, again, didn't have a construction issue, you know. Mike, what are you going to pull out of your butt today?
- 15:45> >Well, you know, I think the one thing that across this whole product line is the common filler and binder that they're using is just. I, uh, I just don't like the. That combo. And I think that's what everybody is picking up on is even as they're moving towards, you know, different external wrappers or sizes or shapes.
- 16:07> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Sure.
- 16:07> >That, you know, that combo that they have for their filler is just. I don't know.
- 16:11> Good ol’ Boy Barker>There's. I do like his size as preferences, though. He's between a, uh, 52 and a 55 now.
- 16:18> >Oh, wait a second.
- 16:26> Mike>Hi, I'm Kristen with Dancewear Solutions. Today we're going to be demonstrating how to measure girth. Girth is a very important measurement when determining sizes. First, take your tape measure.
- 16:37> Mike>Place it at the center of the shoulder.
- 16:38> >Oh, yeah.
- 16:39> Mike>Bring it down through the crotch.
- 16:41> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Oh, yeah, yeah.
- 16:42> >This is a good part.
- 16:45> Mike>M. Making sure it's going over the widest part.
- 16:47> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Yeah. Uh, of your ass. All right, well, what are we gonna give that, folks? We'll give that one a three. I get the pleasure of discussing. This is probably the cigar that I like the most in the lineup. The Midnight Bender. The midnight binder.
- 17:15> Good ol’ Boy Barker>It is, uh, handmade in Dominican Republic at, ah, Tobacco Lea de Joyeto. Yeah. These cigars incorporated. Well, aged Dominican Piloto, Cubano and Ligero filler and binder with an aged Mexican San Andreas wrapper working towards the strongest flavor profile yet. A, uh, San Andreas has to be the highlight. They use the same Dominican binder found in our Bushwhacker line, which we'll talk about in a minute, but added the extra firepower that comes with the double. The Harrow blend named after the son of Bodacious, a famous bull. These cigars are definitely strong and free. Now I will say this. I did not get the Ligero in this. I got the San Andreas and I think that was its saving grace. Um, I think that the blend was good, but it wasn't anything to like write home about. It was a good, like if, as far as. If I was. Owned this company and was making a core line, that would be the staple. You know, I would start there. I would start there. We get a little excited over here.
- 18:34> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin Uh, I would start and then I would, I would progress.
- 18:38> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin more aged than the others? Because I felt like an age would help some of these.
- 18:48> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Well, so there comes a time when you're aging a cigar or a leaf. You've got the best point of prime, right. M. And then it just starts to taper off after then. And so a lot of the aged, like, you'll find, um. Who's a good example? Um, so, uh, throw a dart. Yeah. Leo. Yeah. With, uh, uh, Nova.
- 19:14> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin You know, she, uh. Most of her tobacco is 10 year plus age right before it's even rolled. Yeah. And you can tell that it's at that point where it's gonna be. They blend well, they taste well, they retain moisture. And it's not dry.
- 19:30> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin You know, and, and when you get to that area, that's your sweet spot. Right. And it just seems like some of this line that he, that Robert here has, uh, is just a little past its point and it's.
- 19:44> Good ol’ Boy Barker>They're really dry.
- 19:46> >I think that, I think that's a common production problem that you have is, is that when you don't own the factory.
- 19:53> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Right.
- 19:53> >Is that if your products are not aging as you want your. Look, your window is coming up to manufacture your cigars and it's go time. If those San Andreas, you know, wrappers are not ready to go, I don't care. We're still running your run during this production window.
- 20:11> Good ol’ Boy Barker>It's on the schedule.
- 20:12> >Yeah, exactly. And so I think that that may have been what is catching up with them. Um, yeah, yeah.
- 20:19> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Especially because if he runs in smaller batches too, you know, depending on the size of the, the product he buys at a certain time, that could also determine, you know, the primings that he gets.
- 20:30> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Um, but yeah. So all in all, this is my favorite one in the lineup. I will say that. And, uh, what are we gonna give it here? We'll give it a four and we'll be right back. Magnificent.
- 20:53> Julianna>Rolling clouds and crashing surf Iridescent dunes reflecting by the light of the rising glowing moon. Seashore mesmerizing night breeze hypnotizing We've come across these back roads none too soon look to the left, to the right Keep your eyes on the road, my darling Wondering if we're only passing through. Open roads and open windows My hand is yours forever sweet love Our eyes are hid on these back roads.
- 21:50> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Uh, Rich.
- 21:50> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin We're gonna ask you about this Intimidator.
- 21:53> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin like the Intimidator.
- 21:59> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Chippendales.
- 22:00> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin Beat the Holy Grail. You can see, uh, Rich over here at Chippendales on Tuesdays and Thursdays and twice on Sundays.
- 22:10> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin Andreas wrapper, covered, covering a Dominican grown binder and filler. They wanted to go big with this one.
- 22:21> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Full, Full, full.
- 22:22> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin feeling intimidated yet? Uh, you should, since it's named after the famous bucking bull called the Intimidator.
- 22:33> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Well, uh, let me just stop you right there, sir, because there's only one Intimidator, and his name's Earnhardt. Okay.
- 22:40> Speaker C>And it's actually the Intimidor.
- 22:42> Speaker C>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin
- 22:45> >Are we gonna be rating this?
- 22:46> Good ol’ Boy Barker>That's a three. No, not yet. We might be just off principle.
- 22:49> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin honest with you.
- 22:55> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Yeah.
- 22:56> >Again, when I was having this cigar, I felt like I was turning left all day long.
- 23:01> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Oh, I hope so. Oh, man. Left turns all day. Uh, raise hell and praise Dale. All right, so this. So again, this cigar is like, uh, it's just a. Yeah, it was just bland. Yeah. Like, I felt that. I don't know, other than crap, what that'd be full of. Um, and I'm not saying it's crap. Don't tell.
- 23:29> Good ol’ Boy Barker>That's a joke, folks. Don't take it hard. But, like, honestly, like, I did not get a full bodied.
- 23:36> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin Cigar in the bunch.
- 23:38> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin expectations, Right? Like, if you're selling something that's going to be bold. That's supposed to be bold.
- 23:45> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Yeah.
- 23:45> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin So I would chalk that up to, like, 50% marketing.
- 23:52> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Yeah. 50%, uh, of their taste buds. Because again, as we state in Cigar 101, taste is subjective.
- 24:01> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Right.
- 24:01> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin So what's full for somebody might be mild or light for us, as we'll smoke double, triple the arrows and take them to the dome. And. Yeah. Love it. You know, there's your spice bomb. Um, but again, I will give it to him. The use of that San Andreas wrapper.
- 24:18> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin You know, it covers a multitude of. Of bad things, but, man, I struggled with it.
- 24:25> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin And what sucks. What sucks for me is like, we did an interview with Robert.
- 24:30> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin Not great guy. What was his name?
- 24:33> Announcer>Greg.
- 24:33> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Greg. I, uh, said Robert earlier.
- 24:35> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin I was thinking about Rob.
- 24:37> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin Yeah.
- 24:39> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin
- 24:39> >We did a absolutely wonderful guy's better looking cousin.
- 24:43> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Yeah. I mean, absolutely. Just wonderful. Had a nice conversation with him. Gave us the cigars.
- 24:48> Good ol’ Boy Barker>We've let them age. You know, they've been aging for six months in our humidor before we do this show.

- 27:05> Speaker C>I didn't hate any of them. I enjoyed them. Uh, I actually like the Intimidator. I thought it was a good. Because it was that medium. Medium full, and it kind of hit, I think, what he's going for. Um, I didn't have a problem with that because I love San Andreas. You could put San Andreas.
- 27:21> Speaker C>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin Andreas.

- 27:32> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin This.
- 27:34> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin It was a challenge. Not. Not because of the cigars, but because we are in Nashville, and we just experienced this, you know, ice storm of the century.
- 27:50> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Yeah.
- 27:50> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin Yeah, well, we're gonna talk about that.
- 27:54> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin to find, uh, you know, the place. Yeah. Yeah. So I. I actually set up a heater when those, uh, propane, um, heaters. A little tent and had my little smoke shack out back.
- 28:12> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Set up your hunting blind with your little buddy heater. Oh, I should have, uh. Hey, man. Missed opportunities. You should call me.
- 28:18> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin of it is, is that, you know, it's really got to keep my attention to get through it.
- 28:29> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Yeah.
- 28:29> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin those sort of struggles, I just.
- 28:35> Good ol’ Boy Barker>So for me, like, this lineup, uh, it. There was off the light. It was a. It was decent. Right. But it never changed, and it never got complex. It just kind of stayed the same all the way through.
- 28:49> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin You know, and it was just like, okay, when's this cigar gonna change? What's next? What's in it?
- 28:55> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Like, yeah, when is that flavor gonna open up?
- 28:57> Good ol’ Boy Barker>When is that pepper gonna hit? When is that? Uh, you know, and it just never happened for me.
- 29:02> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Right. Which was sad. It Was sad. I cried a little bit.
- 29:06> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin I really had high hopes.
- 29:08> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin struggled a bit with his, um, getting this company started.
- 29:14> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Yeah.
- 29:15> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin
- 29:17> Speaker C>He had a naming issue that he had to contend with.
- 29:20> Speaker C>Um, cause for confusion claims.
- 29:23> Speaker C>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin
- 29:23> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Yeah.
- 29:24> Speaker C>You know, and so. And then he had, um, a logo issue, I think, that he had to work on.
- 29:28> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Gosh, everybody in the industry wants to be the only one. Yeah. Right. You know, that's the.
- 29:32> Good ol’ Boy Barker>That's the sad part is that a lot of these bigger companies, if they have a name in their title or a word, and you put that word in yours, well, here come the lawyers.
- 29:42> >I love me some lawyer issues.
- 29:44> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Do you? Tell me how much you like lawyer issues, Mike.
- 29:47> >Hang on a second. Let me, uh, figure out. Am I billing you for this?

- 30:09> Good ol’ Boy Barker>That's right. That's right. My duolingo.
- 30:12> >Dos sekis and dos secis.
- 30:14> Good ol’ Boy Barker>That's right.
- 30:14> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin I'll say this. I. I will smoke. And I would purchase the midnight bender. I. I would go out and try them again, for sure. Uh, and the Intimidator. Is that right?
- 30:29> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin
- 30:30> Speaker C>You got it.
- 30:30> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Close. What? What is it?
- 30:32> Speaker C>Intimidor.
- 30:33> Speaker C>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin
- 30:34> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Intimidator. Where's. I mean, Intimidor? Yeah, this is English with Steve, uh, Perry here. Happy to be here. Yeah. All right, so tell us about this ice storm. It's fine. Let's talk about this ice storm here. Yeah, you lost power, right?
- 30:55> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin half days. Yeah, we were stuck in the hill.
- 30:59> Good ol’ Boy Barker>What'd you learn?
- 31:00> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin you know, having a wood burning fireplace is nice, but, um, if you have a big room that it's in that it doesn't really help. So we set up a actual, like a soccer mom tent in our living room and put walls around it. And that's where we hung out for about three days.
- 31:20> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Little 10 by 10 pop up.
- 31:22> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin Sure.
- 31:23> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin There you go, Robert. Did you fare well?
- 31:28> Speaker C>Didn't lose water, uh, power. Aqua town at all.
- 31:30> Good ol’ Boy Barker>It was great. You lost water, though, right?
- 31:32> Speaker C>Lost water?
- 31:33> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Yeah, that got frozen just like our opinion.
- 31:35> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin
- 31:36> Speaker C>Right.
- 31:36> Good ol’ Boy Barker>We'll be right back.
- 31:43> Julianna>Rolling clouds and crashing surf Iridescent dunes reflecting by the light of a rising glowing moon.
- 31:59> Julianna>Seashore mesmerizing night breeze hypnotizing We've come across these back roads none too soon look to the left, to the right Keep your eyes on the road, my darling Wondering if we're only passing. Open roads and open windows My hand is yours forever uh.
- 32:40> Good ol’ Boy Barker>And we're back from the commercials. Listen, we've, we've went off on some tangents here just a little bit, but there's one more cigar we're going to go over and Rich is going to tell us about it right now.
- 32:49> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin second wind.
- 32:54> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Yeah.
- 32:55> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin Double Lego medium body strength Dominican Legero age filler binder. This is a solid medium body experience, exposing the deeper aromas of wood and earth combined with a subtle splash of nuttiness and grass. This blend also changes distinctly the thirds with each size in the line, uh, exposing different nuances as they burn.
- 33:25> Good ol’ Boy Barker>What color was that wrapper?
- 33:27> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin
- 33:29> Speaker C>Black and gold.
- 33:30> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Black and gold, yeah.
- 33:31> Speaker C>It was the box press.
- 33:33> Speaker C>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin
- 33:33> Good ol’ Boy Barker>So I actually somewhat enjoyed this cigar.
- 33:42> >How many people believe that? He actually didn't write down one, one bit of notes around this.
- 33:47> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Let me, let me look at my notes. Look at your notes. Look at my notes here.
- 33:50> >Yeah, yeah. This was a, like, pretty solid medium of us. Medium.
- 33:54> >>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin Um, I, you know, I found it, uh, good.
- 34:02> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Yeah.
- 34:03> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin and rich. I, I, I find it like an anytime cigar.
- 34:10> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Yeah.
- 34:10> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin whenever. Probably a good dog walker.
- 34:14> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Yeah. Um, so the pepper, a little bit of pepper aspect come out in this one. A little bit with that Lahara. And it wasn't terrible.
- 34:21> Speaker C>That's the one time I got it.
- 34:22> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Yeah. Yeah. And so, uh, um, I don't know if it had to do with the box press part of it or, or how they rolled it, but you were able to get a little bit of that pepper out there.
- 34:33> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin And so for me, it was okay. You know, um, there's, there's a lot of things we smoke. Well, there's a lot of things I smoke. There's a lot of things y' all smoke. But, but you learn that there's certain things you like.
- 34:49> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin You know, and it's hard when you get things that people are passionate about and they enjoy and they're just like, I just don't enjoy that.
- 34:56> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin You know, and I think that's what, you know, this is a good lesson in that is. Is finding brands like this that, you know, we might not like it, but somebody might love it.
- 35:06> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin
- 35:06> >You know, so that loving feeling coming on.
- 35:09> Good ol’ Boy Barker>That's right. That's right. So what do you, what do you guys want to give that guy right away?
- 35:14> Speaker C>Right away.
- 35:15> Good ol’ Boy Barker>We'll give that one a three across the board.
- 35:17> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Yeah, that's good. I like that.
- 35:19> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin smoke again. You know, um, it may not be the first one I reach for, depending on my mood, but definitely give it a second.
- 35:29> >I'm thinking this would be a lineup that I would like to come back and revisit like five years from now. You know, um, it seems like there is some transition between what they started, where they're at right now, and where they want to go.
- 35:44> >And I think that's probably where I would be, is I really would like to see how has this evolved, you know, about five years from now.
- 35:52> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Yeah, I think that giving a weight into it, see what they come up with is going to be really good too. I mean, because the more, the more he has time in the industry, the more that tastes progress and you know, you might get. Get into some better tobaccos and another tobacco. Lara, you know, you might even. He might even leave the tobacco he's with and go with someone else that offers a different flavor.
- 36:13> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin the tobacco comes from the single farm.
- 36:20> Good ol’ Boy Barker>From the single farm.
- 36:21> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin
- 36:26> >I think, uh, I think uh, maybe, uh, not hugging that one farmer all the way into the ground, you know, would, would.
- 36:33> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Well, it does work for some like. It does. I agree.
- 36:37> >You know, for. There are a lot of really great estate brands all day long. Uh, but, you know, some of those estates have been around for 20 plus years and, you know, the quality of their manufacturing as well as their growing techniques, you know, has played really well. But, you know, you go back to some of those, you know, estate farms in their first five years and it's like.
- 36:58> >>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 37:00> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Well, I haven't really had much that came out of this tobacco layer. So. Have you guys noticed any, anything? What was your consistency about this cigar? Tell me about the consistency.
- 37:10> Speaker C>So for me, I'll say this and the construction of all these Cigars was amazing.
- 37:16> Speaker C>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin I never had an issue with construction burn. It was, they were perfect. So whoever's rolling these cigars is doing a fantastic job.
- 37:24> Speaker C>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin I also think if the word maduro scares you and you're looking for something that's medium, this might be a brand for you. I, I think it's a solid brand for somebody who likes a good mild cigar.
- 37:37> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Yeah, yeah, I, I would agree with that. I think that someone that likes a mild to no flavor, it's gonna be good. It's gonna be great. I'm kidding.
- 37:51> Speaker C>Charlie Brown me.
- 37:52> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Lucy, you think he's just, I think.
- 37:55> >He'S just testing to see if we're all awake.
- 37:57> Good ol’ Boy Barker>He pulled the football out there.
- 37:58> >Hey, uh, Harry, you got that, uh, no flavor cigar back there?
- 38:03> >>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin back?
- 38:07> >Is that the 18 sticks or the 16 stick?
- 38:10> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Here we go. On price point.
- 38:11> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin That's a good price point.
- 38:14> Announcer>What is the msi?
- 38:14> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Uh, I didn't even actually look up the price point for these because he never sent us that information. Yeah. But I would say if you're around.
- 38:20> >They were like 10 to 15.
- 38:22> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Yeah, I was gonna say if you're around 8 to 12, you're probably in a decent, decent market for that. But if you're getting up to 15 and I'm, I'm out. That's just me though.
- 38:32> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin I'm cheap. I'm cheap. I'll buy a five dollar cigar all day long. Yep.
- 38:37> >It would be interesting. Um, you know, I don't know if you guys have had some of the other brands that are being made at that factory. And um, because I don't think that there were any construction issues that, you know, across what we were having here, it was, I think most of the issues were, uh, the quality of tobacco and the blending.
- 38:57> Good ol’ Boy Barker>The blending.
- 38:58> >It is the blending 100% that we encountered here that had, uh, some, some challenges, you know, around it. So I'd be curious, you know, with some of the other brands, you know, that are right there at the same factory, if they're sourcing from other than the one farmer that. I really wonder if that would be a bit of a. Hey, why are your sticks so much better? And we're using the exact same manufacturing facility.
- 39:22> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Right.
- 39:22> >You know, kind of thought process.
- 39:23> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Right, right, right. So what about pairings? What do you guys do with pairings? I know Rich probably did coffee.
- 39:29> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin
- 39:31> >Uh, really cold weather.
- 39:33> >>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin Tone of propane.
- 39:36> Good ol’ Boy Barker>Some had Some ice with it. What about you?
- 39:39> Speaker C>I paired with, uh, coffee and water primarily with the second, uh, win. I did whiskey on that one.
- 39:45> Good ol’ Boy Barker>But yeah, I will say I had coffee this morning with the Connecticut and, and made the. You know, the coffee was good and the cigar was okay. But yeah, you know, I think if I would have put coffee with the Midnight Bender, it probably would have brought some more of those flavors out of that cigar that I was wanting, you know, that I think I'll get because I'll smoke it again for sure. But anyway, about this weather. It is madhouse out here.
- 40:13> Good ol’ Boy Barker>>> Unidentified Good ol’ Boy Benjamin+++ Benjamin That I work in. I've been about 80 hours this week and I'm tired.
