Partagas 1845 Corona Extra
Partagas cigars have been around for over a century and a half. Founded in Havana, Cuba in 1845, The company has gone through a few changes. Wether it was the Cuban Embargo, General cigars/Swedish Match merger, or changing factories, Partagas stayed strong in the cigar world both Cuban & non-Cuban. I have enojyed Partagas cigars […]
Alec Bradley American Classic Blend
I’ve mentioned before that I’m always looking for great value cigars. So when I saw the Alec Bradley American Classic Blend in my local shop I was anxious to give it a try. With a price tag under five dollars for a toro this cigar definitely fits the bill but would it fit my taste. […]

Reinado Grand Empire Reserva Box Pressed robusto
As many of  you know, Reinado was one of my surprised of the year last year on my Top Cigars for 2011.  This cigar popped on the scene with very little fan fare but developed a passionate following.  Using a secret proprietary fermentation process on all the tobaccos in the cigar, the cigar has a unique, very […]
Paul Garmirian Gourmet Reserva Exclusiva corona extra
I was introduced to Paul Garmirian cigars by Shawn about a year ago, but I didn’t smoke one until recently. Â Shawn gave me a Gourmet robusto a while back that I put up for aging and, honestly, didn’t give it much thought. Â That was until I was a guest on the StogieGeeks.com show. Â We had […]

The Luminoso is a petit robusto measuring 4.5†x 50 and features a Connecticut Maduro wrapper. I’ve been a fan of […]
Macanudo Maduro Gigante
Everybody, wether new or seasoned cigar smoker have heard of Macanudo cigars. Probably many non-smokers have heard of them as well due to the many advertisements in Men’s magazines and so forth. I can remember seeing then in various magazines even before I started enjoying cigars. So, its easily to say that Macanudo Cigars (by […]
