Does anyone by chance remember the name of that book that the FOH guy put out using KickStart a few years ago. I think his name was Groom, but could be wrong on that. I can't find anything on line about the book, buy may be looking for it with bad info. Thanks in advance for any input on this. best regards.

I think this book will head in the MRN direction as Alex told me he would not be doing a second edition. John

Hi John, as I can see there is a second addition available. Please correct me if I missed something.

Larry...the blue book was the 1st edition or what I think they referred to as the kickstarter edition. That book was pre-funded by a lot of BOTL's over at FOH, months or possibly a year in advance. I dont think that version is available anymore. The red book is the second edition but is basically the same as the 1st edition with about a year or so of catalogued cigars in the 22'-23' timeframe. I think the blue book was a bit more expensive and it gives the owner the distinction that they funded that version. I dont think the blue book was available to the public unless you paid for it in advance. The red version is what was on sale after the initial funding. I didn't realize Alex had labeled them as so, so what I meant to say is that he will not be doing anymore editions. Sorry for any mix-up. John

John, thank you so much for the detailed clarification! I pre-funded and have the kickstarter edition.
All the best
