Over the last couple of weeks, I have been getting the funniest emails from our readers. After submitting a question through our contact form and receiving a reply from Brian, Jerry, or myself, the response generally looks something like this. Oh man dude, I am so impressed that you actually responded to me…. In addition […]
ORTSAC 1962 Robusto (Short Ashes)
Back in June, I received a few samples of a new cigar called the ORTSAC 1962 (Castro spelled backwards). The cigars were sent my way by Victor Vitale of the Cigar Agency and he asked that I smoke them and give him my opinion. After smoking a few samples, I moved right along and reviewed […]
Ask The Readers: Constructing Your Top 10 List
Sometimes the day gets away from you but in my case, its more like the week got away from me. Actually, the last two weeks have just been busy with very few moments to come up for air. So since a video review wasn’t possible I decided to borrow a page from Walt’s arsenal of […]
Murcielago Belicoso
If I had given it some thought, I would have lit up the Murcielago for review back at the tail end of October. The reason being, of course, is that “Murcielago” is Spanish for “bat”, a common Halloween fixture. But it wasn’t until saw the short video clip on EO/United Tobacco’s website that it occurred […]

Ask The Readers: Your Thoughts on Seconds?
I was talking with my father yesterday, and an interesting subject popped up. I don’t recall what exactly brought it on, but we managed to get to talking about the selection of seconds that were available from select manufacturers. Mid way through our discussion I made mention that this would make an interesting little write-up […]
Xikar Xi3 Carbon Cutter
With my free time stretched a little thin these last couple of weeks, I wanted to find a way to incorporate the usual write-up with a video. The hitch was finding a way that wouldn’t take the usual amount of time to accomplish such a feat. After giving it some consideration, I thought a product […]
K. A. Kendall’s 7-20-4 Corona
Every now and then a cigar comes out of nowhere and in short order seems to be everywhere. And if not physically everywhere, the topic of enough conversation it you’d think it had been in the cigar shops for years. It’s a bit of exaggeration to say this applies the K. A. Kendall’s 7-20-4, but […]
