Room101 Cigars

Its great to be back in action. Huge props to Walt, Brian, Tom, Matt, Ed and BigReg for taking care of my spots the past month or so while I’ve been on maternity leave!

I’ve been excited to review the newest release from Camacho Cigars in the form of the Room101. If you remember back to IPCPR this year, we recorded a bit of the conspiracy with Matt Booth.

Carmelo Blue Robusto

My first introduction to the Carmelo line of cigars was at last year’s IPCPR. Our schedule wasn’t quite as busy at 2008′s trade show and I found my self loitering at the Cigarmony booth talking with Mark Neff, the shop’s owner and his assistant, Craig “The Boy Wonder.” At one point in the conversation Craig asked me if I had seen or tried the Carmelo yet. I said I hadn’t. He told me that I really should track them down, …

Gurkha Red Dragon (Guest Review)

This week, our guest review features a familiar face and one that we haven’t seen in a couple of weeks. Tom, from Toms Cigars, is joined once again by our good friend Ed Nazare from St. Pepe Pipe and Cigar. The guys take a look at the Gurkha Red Dragon. It seem that this cigar is referred to as the brother of the Black Dragon by Gurkha.

Perdomo Lot 23 Maduro (Twitter Review)

A couple of weeks back, Stogie Review had our very first Stogie Review Tweet-View (Twitter Review). It was unofficial and something that I decided to try with some of the people I converse with on Twitter. The turn out was great and all participants seemed to have a great time reviewing the Carlos Torano Exodus 1959 Silver.

About a week later I scheduled the next Tweet-View and gave everyone an additional week to track down a Perdomo Lot …

El Titan De Bronze Redemption Maduro (Short Ashes)

As the weather goes through its seasonal change, everyone seems to get sick all around the same time, myself included. On Saturday I woke up and felt miserable, I’ve been sidelined from cigars ever since. Right now I’m pretty much over my cold, but can definitely tell that my taste buds are still a little out of whack.

As a result, I have to skip the weekly review this week. Fortunately, before I started feeling miserable I was able to …
