Most of the time when we write a review we focus on the cigar, but I think some focus needs to be put on the factory that Serino has teamed with to produce some great cigars. Bygone & many other brands in their portfolio are made at La Corona Factory in Nicaragua. . If this name rings a bell, they partnered up with Hirochi Robaina to release his foray into the American market with HR […]
Tony Serino has been in the cigar industry for more than 20 years. You may not have heard of him until 2016 when he launched Serino cigars and then in 2017 his son Carson launched Wayfarer and in 2018, Taino. This year at the 2019 IPCPR they showed off the Serino Vintage 2012 which is limited to only 1,000 cigars made. They were rolled 3 years ago by three-pairs of rollers at La Corona Cigars, […]
Some people would call me a cigar snob and some people would call me names I rather not type here. Hell, I’m sure our own Mr. Jonathan is mumbling a few of them under his breath. Anyway, the point is every now and there is a cigar that comes out that I believe is here for the long haul. But for whatever reason it takes a while to catch on or it doesn’t get the […]
Last month we went through the entire line of Wayfarer by Serino Cigars. This month a fourth size has been released from the brand that was inspired as Carson Serino wandered around Iceland.

In our second & last lost video from IPCPR 2017 we catch up with Carson from Serino Cigar Co where he tells up about Wayfarer and the inspiration behind it. We got to smoke one of each size when Carson was on The Cigar Authority with his dad and this cigar has become my most anticipated stick of the 2017 IPCPR trade show which concluded last week in Las Vegas. The cigar will initially be […]
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 […]
