This will be our last post before the holidays officially kick off so we wanted to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and/or Happy Holidays. We’ll probably post up a couple reviews for your morning hangover read, depends how much we end up drinking and eating with all the family gatherings! So to wrap up the [...]
Abdel “AJ” Fernandez worked under industry legend Alejandro Robaina for many years before moving to Nicaragua and starting his dream of producing his own cigars. He has been a big success ever since with his self branded blends, some Internet retailer exclusive blends and most recently, some B&M exclusive blends. Tony actually just reviewed the [...]
There always seems to be a few brands that evade me, mostly because I live way up here in the Great White North and the selection on non-Cuban cigars is lacking. Through various trades and gifts I always try to track down as many different sticks as I can to try new ones… but there’s [...]
While most of you south of the border were celebrating Independence Day on July 4th, us Northerners were actually celebrating Canada day on July 1st. The actual meaning behind these 2 days is pretty much the same since Canada Day also celebrates our independence. Back on July 1st, 1867 we united all the British colonies [...]
So today I’m doing something a little different and something we don’t typically do. If you look through our list of reviews, you’ll see there are not really any duplicates but today I’m making an exception to that rule.

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 [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
Up for review today we have a special edition release from Pete Johnson of Tatuaje Cigars. If you haven’t been following Pete or Tatuaje, you should know that he has a successful line of both limited and regular release blends and he shows no signs of slowing down. You can review some of the other [...]
