Aganorsa Leaf Signature Selection Shade Grown Corojo Maduro Cigar Review

This past March on The Cigar Authority podcast, Terence Reilly announced that Aganorsa Leaf would be releasing a Shade Grown Maduro as part of the Signature Selection line. This caused us to have a look of confusion, as shade grown tobacco has long been characterized as light in color like a traditional Connecticut. However, after two decades of experimentation Aganorsa Leaf has perfected the process. The shade grown Maduro wrapper gets its designation during the […]

Aganorsa Leaf Connecticut Churchill Cigar Review

According to Eduardo Fernandez of Aganorsa Leaf, “First you crawl, then you walk and then you run. It’s a process you can’t skip or else it comes back to haunt you.” It’s some serious words to live by as we all want to run before we can walk, but until you understand the process, learn the process and utilize the process it becomes a recipe for disaster. Aganorsa Leaf is a company that is now […]

The tobacco that they cultivated was named Aganorsa Leaf. As a vertically […]

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 […]

Warped La Hacienda Cigar Review

A few weeks ago on Twitter one of our followers asked for my opinion on Warped Cigars. My response was that while I have heard of the brand which is popular in social media circles I hadn’t seen them up in New England where I live. This led to the brand owner reaching out and sending some samples which have been spectacular in my opinion. Today I decided to review the La Hacienda from those […]

Cigar Review | Casa Fernandez Miami Reserva

After a brutal winter that had me thinking about Miami, the end is now in sight. With temperatures in the low 40s this weekend, I think it is safe to say here in New Hampshire that the worst of the winter is behind us. The question is how long will it take for the 8 feet of snow to melt. Today’s cigar the Miami Reserva according to the Casas Fernandez website is a super premium […]
