First off, in case you’ve been under a rock this past week make sure to check out Tony’s review on the Macanudo 1968. He’s also running a CONTEST there for a full box of cigars. Read the rules and sign up! As I was browsing through my humidor today I came across and old favorite [...]
I had some time earlier in the day to squeeze out a review so I needed something a little more mild and preferably something I could enjoy with a coffee. I looked through the humidor and selected a few milder sticks I thought would pair well then looked over our previous reviews to make sure [...]
FINALLY some warm weather here in the Great White North. Let’s just ignore the forecast calling for a bit of snow this week and focus on enjoying the weather when I can. It was above freezing all weekend and I enjoyed a few cigars and spent some time outside, spring finally seems to be here. [...]
So after a short hiatus from both of us here is a fresh review for our faithful readers! In case you missed it, Tony was overcome with guilt and is now giving away FREE CIGARS! Check out the contest post here, it’s super easy to enter! I was reading through a history of our reviews [...]
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 [...]
Just as fast as the warmth came the cold has returned yet again. At least it was a nice break from this winter which has been unusually colder then normal. Tonight the temperature is supposed to dip down to about 7F. With this information in mind I decided to reach for a smaller vitola cigar [...]
One thing we don’t see too much of in the cigar world is Brazilian Puros. Sure, a lot of cigars use the Brazilian Maduro wrapper to get the rich cocoa and coffee notes but they usually bind and fill them with leaves from other countries. The Dona Flor cigar line is distributed by CigarFromBrazil.com (GVG [...]
If you haven’t had or heard of Padron cigars by now, it’s time to climb out from under the rock and give them a try. They are easily known as one of the best non-cuban cigar manufacturers around and have been around since 1964. They don’t go after huge variations of lines but instead keep [...]
Today we have a very special and exclusive review of the first production cigar from the Maldonado Dynasty. I was recently lucky enough to be sent samples of this cigar, dubbed “The Mogul” from Paul Maldonado. After some chatting on Twitter with Paul I discovered he lived in Canada for awhile so we instantly had [...]
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 [...]
