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 [...]
Kicking out yet another review, today I bring you Smoke Inn’s next Microblend Series, My Father’s El Hijo. Smoke Inn has been on a roll getting some of the most exclusive, and top notch cigar manufacturers to create exclusive Microblends for them. First it was the Tatuaje Anarchy, followed by the Padron 1964 SI-15, and [...]
First of all, don’t forget to “Like” us on Facebook. You could win a full box of cigars and other neat contests we have coming up! I have been dying to get the chance to smoke this cigar, and thanks again to the wonderful group over at smokingstogie.com, this time in particular Steve Valle, I [...]
Today’s review is one that I picked out of a twitter-based cigar pass that we just finished up a few weeks ago. When asked if I was looking for my first response was “Viaje”, since I CANNOT get them here. The great BOTL’s that were involved in this pass delivered. This one comes thanks to [...]
So as I stated in my previous review, I have had a really bad case of gout lately. It’s going on 3 weeks now. I’ve been getting better, slowly, but I am not back to full steam yet. So bare with me. The combination of the pain and the unheard of snow and record low [...]
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 [...]
FINALLY I am getting to a very long overdue review of K. A. Kendall’s 7-20-4. This was a cigar that I have had quite a while ago and had high hopes of kicking out a review. Sadly, this cigar wasn’t easy to come by at the time. Only a select few shops through the US [...]
I’ve actually been a non-slacker lately, kicking out another a review. Daniel will actually be going out of town this week and next on a much deserved vacation in Florida, where he will be soaking up rays, drinking real beer, and will not have to worry about being attacked by moose (mooses? moosi? meece?). So I, along [...]
This cigar came to me as part of a sampler pack at a recent herf. I’ve had a few Gran Habano cigars before but never reviewed one. Overall I’ve had good experiences with them. Gran Habano is made by the very experienced hands of Guillermo Rico, a third-generation premium cigar maker who’s leafs have touched [...]
This week’s review (although a little late) is Camacho’s Corojo Monarca. Although I am an infused cigar smoker, these were sent to me via a campaign Camacho was running. I’m not going to go into details, just know that because of this campaign I will not be posted any pictures of the cigar I took [...]
