So I’m reaching into my humidor today to dig up another Cuban for your viewing enjoyment. I bought a box of these a while back, probably about 2 years ago, but I couldn’t seem to find the box to pinpoint the exact date. I believe they are from 2010 or so, and it is none [...]
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 [...]
With winter on the horizon now is a good time to start stocking up on some of those shorter cigars that you can still enjoy before your hands fall off. Up here in the Great White North, we’ve already started to dip into the freezing temps and my polar bear parka is still at the [...]
So today I’m diving into the humidor to review something we’ve actually reviewed before. If you dive back into our history you will find a joint review that Tony and I did on a Montecristo No. 2 from a 2008 box. Normally I wouldn’t re-visit the same cigar again but I thought this was a [...]
It’s been a little while since we had a nice Cuban cigar pop-up on the review cycle lately so I decided to do something about that. I’ve had these cigars sitting in my humi for a little while and was waiting for a good time to light them up when there was some warmer weather. [...]
So here we are back with another Quick Draw session, Episode 3 to be exact! On the chopping block today is the Quesada Oktoberfest Bavaria and the Cohiba Maduro 5 Secretos. I’m flying solo on today’s Quick Draw and bringing you both of the writes ups below. I came down with a nasty cold (again…) [...]
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 [...]
Abdel “AJ” Fernandez worked under industry legend Alejandro Robaina for many years before moving to Nicaragua and starting his dream of producing his own cigars. He has been a big success ever since with his self branded blends, some Internet retailer exclusive blends and most recently, some B&M exclusive blends. Tony actually just reviewed the [...]
While most of you south of the border were celebrating Independence Day on July 4th, us Northerners were actually celebrating Canada day on July 1st. The actual meaning behind these 2 days is pretty much the same since Canada Day also celebrates our independence. Back on July 1st, 1867 we united all the British colonies [...]
Just a couple more days left to win the box of Macanudo 1968’s we have a contest for. All you need to do is “Like” our Casas Fumando Facebook Page or leave a comment on Tony’s Macanudo 1968 Review. Today I reached into my Cuban humidor to pick out a stick from a box I [...]
