Moya Ruiz Cigars – La Jugada Prieto

This past weekend, I had an opportunity to catch up with Tony as he shared stories from his Drew Estate Cigar Safari trip.  It seems to me that there are some exciting things in the works down in Nicaragua.  Stay on the lookout for pictures from Tony’s trip that should be posted in the near [...]

Oliva – Atlantic Cigar Company 15th Anniversary Diadema

Yes, yes. I am back in the real world after another amazing Drew Estate Cigar Safari trip to Nicaragua. I’m sure I’ll have more on that trip in the near future so stayed tuned. In the meantime, in non-slacker (DANIEL) form, I bring you a review of Atlantic Cigar Company’s 15th Anniversary Diadema by Oliva. [...]

Tatuaje – Petite Cazadores Reserva Cigar Review

We had a pretty historical weekend here in El Paso. First, the world-famous Asarco smoke stacks where taken down to complete the cleanup on the smelter site. Then our city hall had been demolished to make way for a new AAA ballpark a block away from my work. It’s about time El Paso stepped it [...]

Drew Estate – Liga Privada Unicos UF-13 Dark Cigar Review

I haven’t been around as much as I’d like to lately. Some of you may know, there was some issues with my father that needed to be taken care of. Thanks for all your support he is doing much, much better. That being said, I should be back to my normal routine, just in time [...]

CAO Concert

I hope everyone enjoyed their holiday weekend and if you celebrated anything such as Easter, Passover or anything, we hope you had a good time. I know I ate way too much and felt like a stuffed turkey on Sunday night! But luckily the weather was warm and I got to enjoy a few cigars [...]

La Flor Dominicana – Oro Chisel Tubo

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 [...]

H. Upmann – Legacy

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 [...]

Quick Draw Episode 14 – J. Fuego Origen Maduro

So it seems mother nature and the groundhogs are pretty confused this year. We were having some nice cigar weather last week in the low 40’s and then this week we get nailed with a couple more days in the 0F range… Definitely not ideal weather to sneak outside and enjoy a cigar! But I [...]

L’Atelier Imports – El Suelo Prado

With having two youngsters in the house, I am always on the lookout for a great value priced cigar.  Through my constant search for an affordable, everyday stick, I have come across very few that have hit the spot. Having a few dollars left over after Christmas, I went into a blind purchase of a [...]

Espinosa Cigars – Espinosa Habano

First thing first, I want to wish a very happy birthday to the woman who brought me into this world.  Happy Birthday, Mom! Last week, Daniel reviewed the La Zona Habano by Espinosa Cigars. Today, I bring to you another offering from Espinosa Cigars, the Espinosa Habano.  The Espinosa Habano is Erik Espinosa’s first cigar [...]
