This will be our last post before the holidays officially kick off so we wanted to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and/or Happy Holidays. We’ll probably post up a couple reviews for your morning hangover read, depends how much we end up drinking and eating with all the family gatherings! So to wrap up the [...]
Taking a break from all the holiday cheer my wife is already bringing out this year, I settled down to enjoy a Padilla Artemis. The Good Stuff: The Padilla Artemis was amongst the crazy amount of cigars released at this year’s IPCPR show in Las Vegas. I’m openly a Padilla fan. Ernesto is one of [...]
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 [...]

The other new line is called the Casa Fernandez Arsenio. Tabacalera Tropical is located in Esteli Nicaragua and has been in business for [...]
Here is another review coming from the Blind Tasting trade I participated in not long ago. If you haven’t participated in a trade like this, it can be a real eye-opener and a fun time. Try organizing one with some local friends, you’ll be surprised at what you think of a cigar when your pre-conceptions [...]
This week’s review (although a little late) is Camacho’s Corojo Monarca. Although I am an infused cigar smoker, these were sent to me via a campaign Camacho was running.
