First of all, if you haven’t already, be sure to check out Daniel’s revised contest post. The Maldonado Dynasty helped support the cause by supplying more giveaway items! I know, I know, the site was down earlier this morning and I am sorry. I set the domain to auto-renew on a closed account. I’m an [...]
As September comes to a close and October rolls it’s head around the corner, I felt it was time to get the review of the Quesada Oktoberfest all taken care of. The Good Stuff: Quesada’s Oktoberfest is the newest offering by Manuel Quesada. If you’re like me, one thing comes to mind when you hear the [...]
This week we will be taking a first look at yet another size to add to Drew Estate’s Liga Privada T52 portfolio. The 6×60 monster of a smoke. Being that I only had one of these pre-production cigars, this will just be a quick, loose review on my first thoughts of the new size. The [...]
Look who’s on time with their review this week! It’s not Daniel! This week’s review is an interesting one, The Double Signature Reserve by Drew Estate.

First off, this review was written 100%, and photos were shot 100% on the iPhone. I didn’t have my laptop or camera so I decided to try to see if I could do a whole review using my phone. So…What I am trying to say is…Don’t make fun of my crappy pictures. I know this [...]
Filling in this week’s later spot, or “Slacker Spot” as I like to call it, I am bringing you a review a Gran Habano’s recently released Gran Reserva #3. These were sent to us courtesy of our Friends over at Gran Habano. Kicking off as one of this year’s first new releases, Gran Habano is [...]
So sad to see these blind reviews come to an end, we are down to our final Blind cigar. Again, just in case you have been in a dark cave or under a pile of Christmas presents the last month. I am doing a run through of a 5 cigar blind set that Brooks from [...]
This week’s review is of the elusive, and extremely popular Viaje Skull and Bones. The Good Stuff: I know almost nothing about this cigar. I have had quite a few different Viaje blends but this is my first time trying out the limited Skull and Bones Blend. This vitola, the Skull and Bones #2 is the [...]
