Elogio Habano Crescent City Cigars Exclusivo
If it wasn’t for Armando Ortiz the owner of Crescent City Cigars in New Orleans, LA, I would have never tried or even heard of Elogio Cigars. I was over at his shop in the spring of 2012 when he told Ben & I ” Guys, you must try these new cigars I picked up!” […]
Nicaraguan Cigar Co. Condega Maduro Robusto
I did a review of the Nicaraguan Cigar Co. Condega Serie F Petite Robusto a while back and today I am going to be taking a tasting of their Condega Maduro Robusto. From what I remember, the Serie F was fairly pleasant flavor wise, so lets see how the Maduro stacks up to the Serie F. […]
“Smoked Up” No.4
This week has really flown by me. Busy at work, with friends & family took over most of my cigar smoking time. I barely had enough time to type up my review, go through contest entries and work on “Smoked Up”. But I did get a few cigars in this past week and in my spare time gathered […]

“Smoked Up” No.2

“Smoked Up” No.1
Its a new year and I am going to try out a few ideas this year. I did a small editorial on Trends of 2012 and will do a few more articles as time passes of things on my mind in the cigar world. Another new (to me) thing I am going to try is […]
Shawn’s 2012 Cigars of the Year
Every year I, like others, like to make a list of my favorite cigars of the year. Well, the year is winding down fairly fast, so its time for me to do my list for 2012. I have smoked a good number of cigars this year. Many of them are the new releases and some […]
Herederos De Robaina Toro
Little is known about the Herederos De Robaina line of cigars. They are though made by Amercian Caribbean Tobacco in Esteli, Nicaragua. They were recently added to the growing portfolio of cigars that Emilio Cigars distributes. They will be available in four sizes (robusto, toro, torpedo & churchill) in 10 and 20 count boxes. They […]
Dona Flor CC Bahia Blend Corona
Dona Flor Cigars has been around for 35 years, but the roots of the company go back to the 1930s when Alonso Menendez perfected the art of cigar making in Cuba. The Dona Flor brand was released to American soil in 2005. But turmoil between the Florida distributor and Dona Flor has kept the cigars away […]
