Let’s just start this off by noting that I am a sucker for things labeled “organic”. I know, I know, it’s stupid, but it’s one of those marketing ploys that really works on me. I buy my groceries at Whole Foods and when I saw this cigar, I thought I had to try it. So […]
A Night Online
With Brian short on time he asked me to step in this Wednesday. I originally was going to do a video review or possibly a video replying to comments but a funny thing happened on my way to do such a video. I got drunk. It started out innocently enough. My good friend @MikeInWV had […]
Por Larrañaga
Back on the Cuban bandwagon with what I call a “tier 2” Cuban cigar. The Por Larrañaga is an economical smoke with these Panatellas costing around $2 a stick (less than $50 for a box of 25). Along with the Jose L. Piedra the Por Larrañga doesn’t have the consistent, beautiful, blemish free wrappers like […]

Conuco Robusto
A few weeks ago, the guys over at Famous Smoke Shop did what a lot of folks in the cigar world did around the same time: They published their take on the top cigars of 2008. While browsing their list of favorites, I noticed one I didn’t recognize. Some stick called a “Conuco”. Normally, I’d […]
5 Vegas Miami (Knuckle)
Wow look at me! Two days in a row for two weeks straight! That has to be some kind of record? So I have to give fair warning because its not often that Angry/Irritated version of The Great Torpedo makes an appearance, in fact its probably been since the Equus days where I said if […]
