I know Blanco has been prasied by a couple Bums, and most recently by @tfkirk . Haven't had a Blanco, and the shop had these two.

Did some digging on a cigar that was recently posted (and will go unnamed) by a Bum (who will also go unnamed!). Kelner popped up as the blender or distributor through his factory. Meant to research him a bit more as I've read the name elsewhere. Saw the Smoking Jacket, and had to pick up what I think is my first Kelner cigar.



The shop had an Opus Black Tin for $64. Not a bad price, and figured I'd let the Bums know.
At 1 time the los Blancos nine lancero was highly respected and considered a really good cigar.
