unfortunately, my available free time did not work out as planned over the weekend. I had some things that needed to be taken care of around the house and what not so I missed my video this week. In it’s place I thought it would be a good idea to group the bargain cigars together [...]

If you haven’t already read the article (It’s been floating around on the many cigars forums alot lately) I would definitely recommend checking it out. The essay is a long read but well worth the time. Below you will find a link to Joe Jackson’s website where you can read/download the pdf article. It can [...]

To continue where I left off, here we are once again with our next installment of the bargain cigar rundown for 2007. Up for review this time is the Montesino Maduro, which was recommended for last years bargain list by our friend Jabba (and who says we don’t get around to review requests ). [...]

It looks like I’m beginning to get a bit of a reputation. (I’m not sure if it’s a good one or not, but a bad one can be more fun than a good one.) Because when Tom Ramsey of Avalon Cigars was planning on passing through Atlanta to sign up a handful [...]
