A little while back I did a Quick Draw of the La Zona Connecticut by Espinosa cigars and it had some surprises in store for me. So I decided to save up my Habano versions of this line for a proper full review, and here it is today. On the chopping block is the Habano [...]
Reaching into my humidor this week I picked out something I’ve sort of been avoiding but I decided to have some fun and go for it out of curiosity. As far as the Cuban world goes, the Guantanamera Cristales are regarded as sort of the black sheep that are just there to lure in some [...]
Today’s cigar comes to me via a nice little package that was sent by one of our awesome readers over on the West Coast. A big thanks goes out to Jeff(a.k.a. jjo) for sending this one my way! And what is this cigar? It is the Vallejuelo! Now I have to apologize for a HUGE [...]

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 [...]
