Today I’m diving into a cigar made by the very popular A.J. Fernandez. AJ’s cigars and me seem to have a love and hate relationship. There are some that I absolutely enjoy and some that are just not quite my profile. So today I’ll be lighting up a Morro Castle Belicoso and see where the [...]
After reviewing the Cu-Avana Intenso Punisher I really wanted to take another look at the little brother to what seemed like a jalapeno infused cigar, the Cu-Avana Intenso. The Good Stuff: Kinda funny, when I sit down to finally do this review, and start looking up some of the background on the cigar, I realized [...]
It seems to be getting a lot harder to sneak outside for a cigar lately, Father Winter has definitely swept in with full force and is not letting up. But does that stop me? Heck no! Give me my down filled jacket and a nice propane heater and I’m good to go! So what did [...]
We decided to try something new here over at Casas Fumando. During some of our daily chatter where Tony usually makes fun of Canadians and Moose and I defend my great country, we came up with an idea. Sometimes we revisit some cigars that we previously reviewed or smoke some that we don’t really have [...]
Wow, we have some rocking weather here in El Paso. We’ll be in high 60’s and into the 70’s all week. Wasting no time I ran right outside to bring you a review I have been waiting to get to, Jaime Garcia’s Reserva Especial Limited Edition 2011 Shade. The Good Stuff: I reviewed the broadleaf [...]
Here we go with today’s review. We actually had some interestingly warm weather roll in this week after the incredible deep freeze we had last week. Trouble is, I got sick earlier this week and now I can’t even go enjoy a cigar in the warmer weather. Bitter sweet, isn’t it? lol. Well, thankfully I [...]
We have had absolutely wonderful weather here all week. 40 lows, mid 60’s highs, can’t beat that! Well tonight another big winter storm is coming in that threatens to drop out wonderful temperatures 30 to 40 degrees. I decided to head out back and enjoy a Padilla Hybrid before that happens. This Padilla Hybrid was [...]
Just as I ended 2011 off with a Cuban cigar I thought, why not kick off the new year of my reviews with another Cuban? Right? Well even if you disagree, I’m gonna do it anyways so keep reading I decided to grab a Hoyo De Monterray today and this specific cigar is called Le [...]
I hope you all had a great, and safe new years. I was in bed by 10pm. The wife and I both came down with crazy illnesses. Probably for the better, it gets crazy out there! I actually lost a long time friend this New Years in Austin. She was one of three women followed [...]
Well, as the last post of 2011 I decided to grab a cigar out of the Cuban humidor. It was a little chilly outside so I opted for something short and found a Ramon Allones Specially Selected. This is the Robusto vitola offered by this Cuban cigar manufacturer. And Happy New Year to all our [...]
