Check out Brian's review of the Gran Habano Azteca for details on how to win Cigars and Swag.
If you’re familiar with the current offerings of La Flor Dominicana, you’re probably a little puzzled by the name of this review. A Double Ligero Cameroon? Is Brian wrong, or this a manifestation of his previously documented lunacy? Will it help if I mention the box was actually labeled “CameooM” [emphasis added]? No?
Well that’s because these cigars are not widely available. The word is that Litto Gomez actually made this special blend of Double Ligero for a local Atlanta…
Last week I posted a quick question on Twitter asking what cigar everyone though was the best value, or bang for your buck. The responses were great and brought a few cigars to mind that I haven’t had in some time.
The Results:
@dcamacho: Padron! The 2000 is a fantastic smoke and its 3/4 dollars at my local B&M!
@click2riff: I really enjoyed the Padilla Hybrid too once upon a time!
@TomMclovin: I’m goin with the…
This week I bring you a cigar that I’ve had in my humidor for about 7 months. When I first smoked the Habana Reserve it was very inconsistent and I really couldn’t decide whether I liked it or not. Fast forward 7 months and without question, this is a solid cigar.
Welcome back for another Episode of Your Questions, My Answers Episode 32. Just like last time, I’ve broken the show down into three segments all with separate video for your watching convince.
A while back, one of our readers was really after me to do a video review. He seemed particularly disappointed that I chose to review the San Cristobal Guajiro in text and pictures only. So I promised him that once I finally got around to doing a video review, the very first one would be of the San Cristobal by Ashton. Of course, the problem with a promise like that, is I will keep it, and being the very…

This weeks guest review comes to us from Tom and Ed and covers the Felipe Gregorio Power. In addition to the review they speak with a Felipe Gregorio roller who happened to be in for an event.
I’ve got a question for you. What’s my favorite cigar to review? If you said a pre-lease cigar you’re absolutely right. (“I don’t care” also accepted.) So it is with great enthusiasm that I light up the cigars for this week’s review. This new Artesano de Miami cigars by La Gloria Cubana is due to drop sometime in June.
How did I get my hands on this new cigar so far ahead of its release? I’d like to say the…
I’m baaaaaaaack! Filling in for Walt here so I thought I’d give my new Aiptek pocket camcorder a try and see how it would work if I needed to do a review or interview on the fly. Since this isn’t my regular time slot, I used different music too.
Short video that only runs only 7:20 and I know I don’t look excited in the video and its not that I don’t like Macanudo cigars but I just feel…
This week I review another exclusive from Famous Smoke Shop (if this keeps up they should really sponsor us or something right?).
Walt reviewed the Famous Dominican 2000 last year and I thought it be great to do an update to that review and add my own comments since Dominican and mild cigars are my forte.
