In this very special episode of Herfin’ Heads Ben does not confront a high school bully, while Brian also does not learn a thing or two from a hard-nosed Driver’s Ed teacher. Instead Ben and Brian journey once again into the realm of cigar reviews to discuss the L’Atelier Extension de la Racine ER13. Along the way Brian struggles with pronunciations and invents the “Double Raptor” while Ben confuses Sancti Spiritus tobacco with Pelo de Oro and throws around words like box-worthy. And of course, the snarky commentary and random tidbits of information you’ve come to expect from an episode of Herfin’ Heads.

Great episode, guys. One thing I picked up that wasn’t mentioned was an Asian spice note along with a bit of citrus. Damn, now I’ll have to drag another one out of my box to compare notes. Lots of flavor and complexity in a medium bodied smoke.
Love these Herfin’ Heads posts. Keep ’em coming!
I havent seen this stick in my local shop at all yet thanks for the recommendation. If I do see this one im definitely going to have to pick this one up.
One stick I would like to see you two review would be the Gurkha Assasion(I probably mispelled it). This is my favorite Gurhka I would love to see this one on your review and get your guy’s oppion on this one. Thanks
