At the end of January, I reviewed the Thurman Thomas Hall of Fame Maduro (review can be found here), which ended up being surprisingly pleasant, especially for the price. After a couple of months of rest in my humidor, I decided it was time to break out the Natural version of the Hall of Fame. [...]
As Northern cities around the U.S. still suffer from what is known as winter (at least temperature wise), El Paso has entered into spring with a bang. With the temps in the mid-80s, it has been perfect for cigar smoking, BBQing, and just hanging outside with family and friends. Since I have been spending more [...]
I hope everyone had a great, and safe St. Patty’s day. I spend the weekend over at Jeremy’s throwing bean bags, smoking cigars, and drinking a few great beers. On Sunday, I completed my summer-prep yard work, and lite up an H. Upmann Legacy. The Good Stuff: The Legacy is the newest H. Upmann offering [...]
Now here’s a brand we haven’t had a review of in a little while. If you rewind a good chunk of time, you will see that at one point La Aurora was knocking out all kinds of new brands, including the very popular La Aurora 107 (which is still a very tasty stick). They followed [...]
This past Saturday, I woke up feeling pretty good about living in the South and avoiding that crazy snowstorm that hit the Northeast. The weather was a warm 64°F with a slight breeze. Perfect smoking weather. After acquiring a couple sticks from the local B&M, I was set on having a great day of cigar [...]

In partnership with [...]
Well hello there! I took a few snow days of last week. That’s right, SNOW in El Paso. And lots of it! 6 inches to be exact. While we were thawing out down south Daniel was trying to stay warm with 7 degrees temperatures. Winter isn’t being kind to us this year, but that isn’t [...]
So we did get hit with a bunch of rain and wind over the last 3 days courtesy of Sandy that is kicking ass on the East Coast here. Last night was the worst here with Winds gusting over 100kph(60mph). Today seems to be a much better day and I wanted to pass on my [...]
For those of you that read my post-vacation post, this cigar might look familiar. I mentioned it in my write called “Why I was MIA – Part 2” where I chatted a little bit about my adventures with cigars while I was on vacation. You can also read up on Part 1 here. In my [...]
There is no doubt about the mass amount of new releases hitting the shelves as of late. One of those releases that I haven’t seen too much about is Montecristo’s The Good Stuff: The Montecristo Epic is labeled as the boldest Montecristo blend in the Altidas U.S.A. portfolio. The main story in the Epic is [...]
