My initial reaction to the photo: Man, are those cigars green! If you've seen candelas before you probably have seen a light lime green hue...and it even disappears to a certain extent under some lighting condition. These stogies are practically "Incredible Hulk" green, but whether or not they really are that brilliant of a shade will be seen once they hit the shelves. To be honest, I am looking forward to giving them a try, especially since the very good candela offerings the last year or two from Illusione and Viaje. Also...I have a suspicion we'll be seeing a bunch of bloggers reviewing these around the middle of March this year. Erin go bragh!
