This week we have the La Aurora Maduro robusto at 5×50. The La Aurora Maduro is advertised as a more refined, medium to full-bodied smoke than the Cameroon-wrapped La Aurora comprised of Dominican long filler and a Brazilian-grown broadleaf maduro wrapper. I’m not generally a big Cameroon fan so I’ve never tried it and can’t […]

Equus Limited Ligero
You know we had someone comment a few weeks ago who said we should have a Top 10 list of The Worst Cigars. I think if we actually had a list like that, the Equus Limited Ligero would take the #1 spot. This cigar doesn’t even deserve a picture in this review.
Carlos Torano – Reserva Selecta

I’ve had this one resting in the […]

Rocky Patel Sun Grown
You know I really thought this video review would be longer than the 9:44 that it turned out to be. That goes to why this cigar has that wow factor I’ve been talking about lately in a lot of my reviews. The Rocky Patel Sun Grown grabs your attention from the start and really makes […]

Brian had some family related business come up suddenly that he needed to take care of so I decided to get a quick review together. Tonight I decided to fire up my last remaining Punch Champion. This particular cigar […]
Cusano Corojo 1997
