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. [...]
Daniel and I have been all sorts of crazy the past few weeks. We both took turns covering for each other as we always promise to get at least 2 posts up a week. Well, due to my never-ending work load, and the passing of my grandfather this week (no need for remorse, he lived [...]
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 [...]
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.

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 [...]

The infamous Garcia family is behind this growing company and factory based out of Nicaragua. The Garcia family includes the well respected Don Pepin Garcia as well as his up and coming son [...]
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 [...]
Not long ago I wrote up a review for Tatuaje’s Black Tubo. By far, one of the better Tatuaje sticks I have had. Within the comment section of that review our good friend Brooks over at Smoking Stogie offered up a very rare gem. The most sought after vitola in the Tatuaje Black line, The [...]
