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 [...]
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 [...]
In light of today being Halloween, I decided to dig up another spooky pairing to celebrate the occasion. I’m not sure how Halloween is accepted in different parts of the world but I think it’s mostly the same in North America. The only difference is up here in the Great White North is that the [...]
So Tony is still off prancing around somewhere South of all of us in the Dominican Republic (Actually, he’s travelling back today but that’s not the point). He was updating the Casas Fumando Facebook Page with lots of interesting info so make sure you check it out to see what he’s been up to. He [...]
Ernesto Perez Carrillo is a name long known to work magic with his blending skills in his time with La Gloria Cubana. As many of you already know, he ventured off to start his own company not long ago and finally have his own name adorning his wonderfully blended cigars. In the short time the [...]
Today we are taking a look at one of the more talked about cigars this year, Jaime Garcia’s Reserva Especial Limited Edition 2011. The Limited Edition 2011 is similar to the Reserva Especial which was released last year (we actually chose this as one of our best cigars of 2010) but with a few tweaks [...]
I recently had the chance to participate in another round of blind cigar tastings with some great BOTL’s. The cigars I received came from Chris(a.k.a. Beaverc32) over in New York. He had a nifty little idea to name each cigar after a Mobster Movie, I liked the creativity there! I’m splitting this into 2 separate [...]
Ever feel like lighting up something special “Just because”? I know it’s nice to have a special occasion and enjoy a special cigar, but today I said “Why Not?!”. Everyday is special right? It’s sunny and warm today, that’s special enough! So here we go, a My Father Limited Edition 2010. Not long ago I [...]
Tony has been crazy busy with work lately and has forgotten to remove my chains. So since I’m still chained to my desk I figure I’ll go for a hat-trick and put together my third straight review. I’m sure you all miss Tony but you’re stuck with me for now, so enjoy it! lol. Today [...]
Just as fast as the warmth came the cold has returned yet again. At least it was a nice break from this winter which has been unusually colder then normal. Tonight the temperature is supposed to dip down to about 7F. With this information in mind I decided to reach for a smaller vitola cigar [...]
