Voting Is Now Open

I honestly had better expectations to display the entries we received for the Logo Contest but the voting system and the Highslide Plugin I was going to use just wouldn’t play nicely with our theme.  So considering I’m horribly late with this and if I put it off any longer I may end up smoking the box of Series P myself, I went with an out of the box solution of 4Images Gallery.

Some base rules, you don’t have to …

Romeo y Julieta Anniversaro Toro

Romeo y Julieta Anniversaro Toro

This is my review of the Romeo y Julieta Aniversario Toro. This cigar is produced by the fine folks at Altadis.

I used my punch cutter and single flame torch lighter with this cigar. The cigar lit easily and produced a great amount of smoke. The burn was very even. The initial flavors had some spice and a bit of sweetness. The sweetness comes from the Ecuadoran Sumatra wrapper. Throughout the smoke, the flavor and burn remained consistent and enjoyable.…

601 Maduro

Up for review this week is the 601 Maduro by EO Brands. Jerry was kind enough to send me three of these attractive cigars to sample. Jerry also provided Justin, Brian, Bob, and Dale cigars as well so that we could all smoke one together for the Current Episode of Dog Watch Cigar Radio. As always it was an absolute blast hanging out with the guys and talking cigars.…

  • I'm convinced at this point, the 1878 line from @pdrcigars is the 'Best Bang for your Buck' in the PDR portfolio. Some of his more expensive cigars just arent as good as this budget stick.
  • Smoking my first Flores y Rodriguez. The Flores, Id imagine, refers to Abe Flores of Pinar Del Rio.
  • IMO Enclosed Foot = "Sorry Sir, I couldn't be bothered to trip up that tobacco so I just wadded it up for you."
  • Box looks great, although it could have used more dry-time. Has a mild stain smell about it.
  • Got a @StudioTobac Sampler in the mail. Looks good, eager to smoke through them.
  • @LaAuroraCigars 107 Corona and @CAOCigars OSA cutter, together in harmony.
  • Have a bunch of things to wrap. Having a cigar to keep me company.
  • Nomad Cigars and Yuengling - 1
  • Have a busy morning ahead of me. It is such tough work but someone has to do it.
  • It is a little "Partagas Serie D No. 4" looking but I like the idea if small batch cigars from @pdrcigars
  • Nothing says Good Mornin' like an @EPCarrillo Elencos
  • Figures, 9 out of 10 were awesome and my last one has a lousy burn and produces virtually no smoke on the draw.
  • @jcruz @jonathandrew1 Same here and I guess you could call this Stogie Review Studios (North)
  • EP Carrillo New Wave Corona
  • Drew Estate Undercrown and Spyderco Native 4 - 1
  • Nub Connecticut 358 and Coffee - 1
