It’s been awhile since we’ve had a review of a cigar with the My Father name on it’s band. Not to be confused with a cigar from the My Father factory. If you’ve kept up with a lot of recent cigar news you would have noticed that the My Father factory in Nicaraguan is quickly [...]
Just like Tony, I’m NOT Slacking this week! haha! And not only am I not slacking, but I decided to pick up a special stick to review for today. On the edge of my ashtray and ready to be lit is a Limited Edition cigar coming from the La Aurora factory, the 100 Anos (or [...]
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 [...]
I received this cigar just before Christmas from a fellow BOTL(Brother of the Leaf) named Joe (a.k.a. BlackIce). We had a Santa-Trade where he sent me a fantastic package. I decided to give this one a review since I’ve managed to get myself a couple but never reviewed them. Berger & Argenti seem to be [...]
I’ve had a few of these cigars sitting in my humidor for quite some time. When I was looking for something to review I figured it’s been awhile since I’ve picked up an Alec Bradley outside of the recent blind tastings I’ve done. I’ve smoked them before but when I stared at the stick and [...]
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 [...]
As you may have seen in Tony’s post not long ago, I organized a Blind Review Challenge. Check out Tony’s summary of the mystery cigars he received here. Now it’s my turn to wrap up my trade with a review summary. I really enjoy setting these up. As Tony mentioned, it allows you to pick [...]
It seems that lately I’m seeing La Aurora and Miami Cigars all over the place. There’s been quite a few top quality releases from them and I’ve been eagerly chasing them all down. They are making a big splash in the online community, especially with Twitter and their recent release of the La Aurora 107 [...]
Today’s cigar comes from a name that is well known in the world of cigars. He was the mastermind being the La Gloria Cubana line which exploded in popularity in the 90′s and still holds a strong following. Ernesto Perez Carrillo was hard pressed to meet the demand that his popular line had produced. In [...]
With Halloween just around the corner I am more than excited to be reviewing one of Tatuaje’s most exclusive series. The Monster Series, in particular #3, The Face. The Face in my opinion has to be one of the most sought after cigars of 2010. With only 666 dress boxes (the purty box in these [...]
