In July, I reviewed the Garofalo Toro but as it is the eve of Thanksgiving I wanted to review a cigar that I could tie into the holiday. I am not a fan of Thanksgiving having lost my father on the holiday many years ago. Less than a year ago my mom passed away and I left the city that I love, Miami. Not a day goes past that I don’t miss some special people […]
There have been quite a few limited edition cigars from Crowned Heads this year which started with the Las Calaveras and concluded with Mason Dixon. Between it all was a very limited release of 250 boxes for the home state of the company. According to Jon Huber, “Tennessee Waltz” is a song that is near and dear to my heart. It was the song that was playing in the dance hall when my maternal Grandfather […]

Over the last three years Davidoff has released a cigar inspired by the Chinese Zodiac. In 2012 it was the Year of the Horse and last year it was followed up with Year of the Snake.

While the S 858 sold out in minutes, we still have a nice selection of Anejo cigars left at the time of this review going up and Between the Lines as well.

One of the surprises this year for me is a brand from United Cigar called Fleur de la Reine. It is a cigar that I never heard of until I moved to New Hampshire, and United Cigar is a brand that you should begin to hear a lot about in 2015. According to their website, “Bold and rich with spicy, full flavor, Fleur de la Reine is made up of a blend of Honduran and […]
Yesterday, we reviewed the Rocky Patel Prohibition Mexican. You would think that the cigar today would be called Rocky Patel Prohibition Broadleaf, but instead the UPC seal on the cello refers to the cigar as the Rocky Patel Prohibtion Maduro. While these cigars are still 30 days out due to the delay in the Mason Jars they will be packaged in, Two Guys Smoke Shop has the launch event this Friday in Salem, NH and […]
The launch of the Rocky Patel Prohibition is still about a month away due to delays in receiving the shipment of Mason Jars that they will come packaged in. However, Two Guys Smoke Shop in Salem, NH will be launching the cigar on Friday night, with a follow-up event on Saturday from their Seabrook, NH location. The brand ambassador Jessica Tyann will be in attendance at each event. Our friends at HalfWheel.com posted information about […]

According to the Kristoff website, “Made in the spirit of an elite Cuban cigar, the Kristoff embodies the taste and richness a true aficionado is […]
