Camacho Limited Harvest Torpedo

According to the rumors out there, this may be the rarest smoke I’ve ever had the opportunity to review. The word is that only 50,000 of the Camacho Limited Edition were produced, due to the small size of the yield the “special strain” of wrapper leaf grown in the Jamastran region.

But as you know, rumors have this tendency to be less than accurate. The story continues with the entire production line was sold to a single retailer. And since…

CI Legends (Copper Label)

Happy Memorial Day! This week I continue my series of reviewing the CI Legends Series. If you’re new to the series, don’t worry. You’ve only missed two so far. My review of the Green Label and the Yellow Label are available for you to go back and watch.

Birth of a Rolling Table: Part 2

Continuation of Birth of a Rolling Table: Part 1

At some point while working on the rolling table, I had a discussion with Dave that Sam might need a second table. The idea was that just in case the original table got lost in transit or broken during transport, a second table was waiting in reserve.

The second table wasn’t required until after the first string of events were complete which gave my father and I a little…

Ashton Benchmade by Don Pepin (Saturday Supplemental)

This week’s Saturday Supplemental video review is a little different than the previous ones. Instead of revisiting a cigar that I (or one of the other guys) have smoked in the past, I’m checking out a brand new cigar. Jon a.k.a. Wingfan13 promised to send me one an Ashton Benchmade Robusto if I’d do a review of it. Of course I said “heck yeah” and in short order a unexpectedly hefty supply of smokes arrived in the mail! (Apparently quite…

Gurkha Special Edition Beast

If you’re anything like me, you feel a little lost when it comes to Gurkha cigars. They fill page after page of cigar catalogs, both online and print. And yet, their own website seems to list a completely different set than you see in your local shop. In short, there’s just no telling how different lines of them there are out there. And as soon as you start counting, a few more hit the market. It seems that Gurkha cigars…
