Perdomo 20th Anniversary Maduro Robusto Cigar Review

The Perdomo 20th Anniversary cigars are hand-crafted with the finest tobaccos grown exclusively on Perdomo’s most prestigious farms in Esteli, Condega, and the famed Jalapa Valley in Nicaragua. Using the highest priming tobaccos from each region, the Perdomo 20th Anniversary has a tremendous flavor profile with layer upon layer of rich, elegant, complex flavors. After being fermented to perfection, each Cuban-seed Sun Grown and Maduro wrapper is barrel-aged in bourbon barrels for an additional 14 […]

Garofalo Maduro Robust Cigar Review

What does David Garofalo and I, Barry Stein have in common? We have both had our own cigar on the market. That is where the comparison ends as my cigar is no longer on the market and his cigar outsold mine by a HUGE margin. Garofalo cigars are made by Nick Perdomo and ongoing 50th Birthday present for David G. Originally released as a Connecticut Shade, the cigar eventually made its way to the market […]

Illusione Epernay Le Ferme Cigar Review

I decided to light up something today that goes back, way back. Back in 2008 European Cigar Cult Journal celebrated its 15th Anniversary. Today, the magazine is simply known as Cigar Journal.

Flor del Valle Cristales by Warped – Cigar Review

Warped Cigars was founded in 2009 by a then 19-year-old Kyle Gellis but things didn’t fully take off until the company attended their first IPCPR in 2014. What sets Warped Cigars apart from other boutique manufacturers in my mind is they haven’t created their name on strong cigars. The future of Warped might be in danger though as none of their brands make the predicate date of 2007. Like many newer manufacturers they are taking […]

Serino Royale Connecticut Torpedo Cigar Review

A wise owl one asked how many licks does it take to get to the center of a Tootsie Roll pop. This morning I asked how many cigar sizes and shapes are there? I’ve seen charts with as many as 72 different sizes. But in reality there are an infinite amount of cigar sizes. We’ve seen Skip Martin release a cigar measuring 11 x 133, and last week Dos Hombres released a 11 x 90 […]

Debuting at the 2016 IPCPR, The Padron 1926 Serie Anniversario No. 90 was released to celebrate the 90th birthday of Jose Padron. The cigar was a first for the company in couple ways. The No. 90 which comes in Natural and Maduro is the first time the 1926 has been offered in a round format versus the box pressed version and it is also the first time the company has released a cigar in a tube, and it won’t […]

Dos Hombres Honduran Maduro Cigar Review

When I first started smoking cigars my go to cigar was a $4.00 Padron 2000 Natural. Over the years, cigar prices have skyrocketed but there are still some great value cigars out there. Tomorrow we will look at those cigars on The Cigar Authority. However, with my vacation 2 months away I have begun cutting back on my purchases to save a few extra dollars here and there which should add up to a really […]

Eirora The First 20 Years 4 x 40 Cigar Review

The newest size from Eiroa The First 20 Years comes in a signed box dated by Christian Eiroa and are part of the first run of these cigars.
