With the new Avo 30th Limited Edition review due this week I was hesitant to review today’s cigar because I don’t like to pile up multiple reviews from the same manufacturer. However, I was walking through the store when I was asked by someone, “Hey B, I noticed you reviewed the Robusto and the Churchill, but what is your favorite Late Hour size.” The answer is the Toro, and the customer asked for me to […]

Today, November 30, 2016 marks what would have been the 142nd Birthday of Winston Churchill. What better way to celebrate than with a Winston Churchill.
