Toasty Jones Cigars - are they really that good?

Log into your account and check the status. My orders have all shipped within 2-3 days from the date I ordered. If it's taking much longer than that, give them a call and find out the status. Should not take more than 2 days or so to process an order.
 
If you're buying Toasty Jones, I'd try one and then let the rest sit for at least a couple of months. Dry boxing really helps as they do appear to be shipped very fresh. The flavor is quite different once they dry a bit.

How long do you dry box yours? Just overnight or longer?
 
I dry boxed them for about 1-2 weeks. It depends how humid your environment is. The first time I bought these was last year. And to be honest, they were good but not great. I let them sit in the humidor for a few months and tried another one. The flavor was quite different, and rather impressive for such a cheap smoke. These aren't PSD 4's, however they are a great every day cigar, or yard 'gar. I like that they also produce a ton of smoke. Can't stand smoking a cigar, especially a larger ring gauge, for it to produce a mediocre amount of smoke.

I'm certain these are shipped wet with virtually no age, otherwise I don't think I'd notice the substantial improvement in flavor from newly purchased to ~3 months of age.

While they don't mention which factory is making these, I personally suspect they are from Drew Estate. Drew Estate is a well known Nic brand. The style of the logo and even the name certainly sounds like a Drew Estate brand. Again, I have no idea, just speculation.
 
Finally ordered a 25’er. Been waiting on a good coupon code. At $1.82 per stick the bar is low for a payoff.

ETA - ordered the

Smoked one today. (ROTT/yesterday)

Pretty good with no rest. Probably wait 3 months and smoke another.

No burn issues. Wrapper fell apart the last third. Some pepper early on and then just smoothly creamy. Some more pepper the last third also.

Well I smoked a habano last night. It had about a month rest and I found it very bland. As in almost no flavor at all, even on retro. Which is better than bad flavor, I guess. Maybe needs more rest, maybe it was the cold (sub-freezing temperature), maybe just a bum stick. I may try one maduro yet, but I'll let the others rest a while longer and revisit. I did smoke it straight out of the humi at 65% as well, so some dry boxing might have helped, too. I'll have to remember that for next time.
 
Let it rest a few months. In my experience, the flavor opened up. They aren't strong cigars by any means, just a smooth enjoyable smoke while working in the yard.

That's the plan for the rest of them, I just wanted to give one a try and see.
