Smoke and Steel: Early Episode Access and Discord Community
Hey everyone, Walt here. I wanted to give you a quick update on what’s been happening with the Smoke and Steel podcast and share something I’m pretty excited about.

Adrian Magnus XO
Howdy do, fellow cigar enthusiasts! I’m back this week with something truly special that landed in my humidor – the Adrien Magnus XO cognac infused cigars. These premium Dominican sticks caught my attention not just for their luxury positioning, but for their unique Hennessy XO cognac infusion process. After smoking through three of these beauties, […]
Well I will definitely be looking for these! Awesome review! I cant wait to taste all of the flavor changes and to see if my palette can actually pick them up 🙂
Nice price point too!

Great stuff Tom & Ed! Pleasure to watch and I’ll definitely be looking for this smoke. Great job again guys!
Another great review from Ed and Tom. Thanks guys.
Thanks all for the comments! I’ve been a bit of an Alec Bradley whore these days, mainly with the Tempus and Maxx. I’ll be revisiting this cigar again as well.
Jerry, I’m admitting in public that I ripped off your seal of approval idea! I’ve been stealing Walt’s slide shows forever, and it was time I started taking some of your ideas 😉 Now I just need to do a tower of burn to even things out.
to all in range of ed’s shop he received the SCR’s in today — already made my purchase!
Great review guys!

Sounds like a good smoke. I will be looking for a 5er.
Great job!
I’ve been reading some negative remarks recently about Alec Bradley. It goes to show that you have to try and not take to heart critizisms or accolades.
Great review guys, have to see if I can pick some up. Thanks for the shout out Tom, I love how you used the stamp it looked awesome.
So nice of you guys to provide me with something to watch while I enjoy my first Select Cabinet Reserve. Another great video review!
That’s gotta be the first time you’ve ever answered (heard?) the question “what smells so nice in here?”
Seriously though, I think you guys are right on. When it went out in the final third (due to my negligence), I almost didn’t relight it. Glad I did, was still great. Nub-worthy.
I look forward to actually being able to buy these.
Jose – Your the man. Thanks for the logos for my site too. Stay tuned for a cigar bomb!
Brian – I think they are officially out now. Definitely nub worthy. I haven’t been let down by Alec Bradley stuff yet, and am becoming quite the AB whore.
Thanks again everyone for the comments! Good times.
Good stuff….I can’t help but notice one of you two needs a bit of a trim!!! 🙂
Smoked one of the AB SCR Robustos today and I have Ed & Tom to blame!
Thanks for the great review!
These are some very tasty smokes… I may need a box.
Picked one up today, and was underwhelmed. After removing the foot and main band I noticed that sections of the wrapper were removed with the banding, I’m not sure if it was poor humidification on tobacconist’s part or poor construction (excess glue on the banding) at the factory prior to boxing.
The cigar had a consistent finger give with a major soft spot in the middle of the second third. Pre-light draw was very mild with minor cinnamon notes which were consistent after lighting, with a touch of vanilla on the end. This cigar started out promising but went downhill after about 4-5 draws with the flavors initially present disintegrating into nothing at all, with the exception of a strong pepper component when exhaled through the nose.
The burn was uneven with an ash that didn’t make it to half an inch before it fell off on its own.
I am more than willing to try one again, as I think this particular cigar was improperly stored or shipped, and as a consequence was very dry. That being said the price point on this particular, I felt was way too high and would be more appropriate in the $4-6 range (I was charged just over $8).
Hey guys, just wanted to say nice review and great music! Erotomania never gets old!
I’ve smoked quite a few of these and have never has the problem you did Andrew.. What a bummer ’cause this is a really tasty stick. To each his own but I like these more than the tempus. A spot on review.
I was put off ALOT by your site’s remake review—preceeded by A COMMERCIAL EMBEDED WITH MORE AD MATERIAL, CRAPPY ABRASIVE MUSIC LEAD, FOLLOWED BY TWO GUYS THAT OBVIOUSLY WERE NOT WELL PREPARED AND COULDN’T REMEMBER THE NAME OF THE CIGAR. Continuing with the pervasive branding for “fuji” and a review that went two times too long, you have lost my interest. Probably will not return.
Don’t be put off by Stogie Review, Ed and I are just guests here. If ya wanna blast me or Ed, go on over to my site!
