My wife does not have her own cigar case and she is really into leather and likes the bigger gauge (cigars), like this one will accommodate!

Good review. I don’t expect pro quality tv spokesperson technique so ummm ahhh… just keep doing what you’re doing and just be yourself. Your knowledge and experience reviewing cigars speaks for itself. There are endless cigar review sites on the web and stogiereview is definitely a “go to”.

Regarding the Miami, I know your review was from awhile back, but the info about factory changes is useful for serious enthusiasts. I just had my first Padilla Miami (new version, robusto) and enjoyed it alot. Got a couple fivers on devilsite and the value is incredible as the miami is truly a real premium smoke. The flavors are full bodied and complex. The specific notes I get are a little different but that’s all very subjective and subject to semantic tendencies/differences between tasters.

Keep up the good work.

My question predates others here as I’m wondering why a Padilla was rolled by Don Pepin before he took over rolling his own? I haven’t burned a Padilla Miami for about a year and that was the former Pepin version. It ws outstanding. I bought a bos of the new ones tonight on CIGARBID and am excitedly awaiting their arrival. If it’s as you say and I can’t imagine why Padilla wouldn’t make as goood or better a Padilla then Pepin would, It will be outstnading. So what’s the 911? Call me a history buff. *GriN*

Some people would consider American Idol a good thing too, it doesn’t make a difference if it is good or not. I am not trying to knock down Jerry or his efforts, I like this site and the reviews, but i don’t see why we need to hear about the band/factory change 18 times or the price and that it is cheaper on auction sites. He made his point well enough the first.

As far as the umms and ahhs, that is the kind of stuff they teach you not to do in grade 6. I do like the relaxed style of the reviews and Jerry’s points on the cigars, it just seems like there is a lot of filler in the video. Stuff that doesn’t need to be there and i feel takes away from it in fact.

Just because something is free doesn’t mean that people shouldn’t do the best they can. Jon what do you pay for this site?? I am not shooting down this site i think it is good.

Consider my comments constructive criticism, Jerry may take them as he sees fit or completely ignore me as a jerk. It’s easy for me to sit here and make negative comments when i am not the one on camera, but i think that my points would make the video better. That’s all. Maybe I made them in a harsh manner.

I will 2nd “Jerry, keep up the great work”.

Duncan, how much do you pay for access to Stogie Review ?

Jerry, keep up the great work. I can’t get enough.
