Blue Mountain Cigars “El Threesome”
I recently received a package from Blue Mountain Cigars with a selection of their various offerings. The three different wrappers on this particular cigar caught my eye immediately. Then I realized that it was named El Threesome and I enjoyed a good juvenile laugh. The opportunity to try an El Threesome doesn’t come around every […]
E.P Carrillo Elencos Series
Today I’m firing up the Elencos Series from E.P. Carrillo. I first smoked this cigar about one and a half months ago, and since then I’ve smoked well over ten of these cigars. Because of local availability I’m smoking the Don Rubino for this review, which is a slightly elongated robusto. This cigar is available […]
Tatuaje 7th Capa Especial
Last year, Tatuaje Cigars introduced two new cigars to their Brown label called the 7th and 7th Reserva. Both were of the grand corona/corona gorda size (my fav) but different wrappers. The 7th uses the standard Habano Ecuador wrapper and the 7th Reserva uses the Connecticut Broadleaf. The Capa Especial uses a Sumatra wrapper like […]
Sublimes
Today I’m smoking a cigar that until recently wasn’t sold outside of South Florida. The Sublimes has been in production since 2004, and only recently is in national distribution. These cigars are rolled in Little Havana, FL and feature a blend of Nicaraguan and Ecuadorian tobacco. For this review I smoked the Double Robusto, but […]
Berger & Argenti Mooch Maduro
Last November I reviewed the Berger & Argenti Mooch which I thought was a great mild cigar that fell into a great price point. Now the Maduro version has been released, and I was anxious to get my hands on these. Name: Mooch Maduro Company: Berger & Argenti Wrapper: Nicaraguan Maduro Binder: Jalapa, Nicaragua Filler: […]
Zino Platinum Z Class
I’ve been a big fan of the Zino Platinum series since I was first introduced to them a few years ago. Although mild, I find their flavor profile quite enjoyable and even the Barrel size has a little ligero in it to give it some extra kick. The only downside, and its a big one, […]
A. Fuente Cuban Belicoso
In early May I purchased a box of Fuente Cuban Belicosos while at at a Fuente event at my local Tinder Box. In the month since then I’ve just about smoked through the entire box… needless to say it’s become and regular in my rotation. Watch the video or read my review to find out […]
Winston Churchill Lancaster
Recently, I was sent some samples of a new Winston Churchill cigar that was to be released in the end of April called the Lancaster. This new line extension is a follow up to ever popular Spitfire line which are petit coronas available in tins. As a historian and a World War 2 aviation buff, […]
J & D Cigars Temptation Churchill Maduro
A few weeks back, I was sent an email on Facebook from David Insignares of J & D Cigars. He asked me if I would be interested in sampling some of his cigars. I had heard quite a bit about them already from the rumblings on Twitter so I was anxious to try them out. […]
La Flordita Gold
It’s been a couple weeks since my last review, real life just got the best of me. Anyways, today I’m smoking the La Flordita Gold which was sent to be by Scott from Famous Smoke Shop. I’ve been enjoying the La Flordita Fuerte ever since Brian and I got to sample the at last years […]
