Back again with another edition of Week in Smoke. I think these have started to become more popular than my actual reviews. To answer a question I get repeatedly; Yes I do plan on bringing back the video version of Week in Smoke. Surprisingly it actually takes the most amount of work but its advertising […]
Jet 1300-c Butane Lighter
Welcome to, I think, my first accessory review. Today is going to be the very inexpensive Jet 1300-C Butane Lighter. I received two of these lighters from jjo along with a nice selection of cigars, in the hopes I could do a comparison review to something similar like the Blazer. I have not been able […]
Shake up the Bands and Take a Picture
Every so often I like to play a little game. This game has no winners, losers, or prizes, the objective is to have some fun and test your knowledge. To play this game, I take a plastic container, which I keep all of my cigar bands in, shake it up very well, then snap a […]

Herf’n Heads – Featuring Angelenos
A couple of weeks ago, Mike and I got together for a Virtual Herf and put together another Herf’n Heads Episode. This time around, Mike and I feature the Angelenos Cigar from Prometheus. In between discussing the cigar, we cover topics such as the state of Olde World Tobacco in Lancaster, PA. Mike tells us […]
My Father Le Bijou Special Edition Corona Gorda
My initial experience with the My Father Le Bijou 1922 line was one of indifference. The cigars were pretty good, but not something I thought was worth the price. But then on a recent visit to Puff ‘N’ Stuff, a shop here in Georgia, Al, the owner, renewed my interest in the Le Bijou. Apparently […]
Corona Cigar Company 10th Anniversary Robusto
Welcome to another one of my first impression reviews, this time on the Corona Cigar Company’s 10th Anniversary cigar in the robusto (5×50) size. Starting off, the wrapper is a little lumpy at places and does not have much of a scent. I get some wood from the foot and on the cold draw. Lighting […]

Favorite Quick Smokes – TGT Edition
As you may have noticed from my Top 10 Cigars list to my weekly Week in Smoke posts I’ve become a fan of small sized, quick smokes. I thought I’d put together a quick list of some of my favorite quick smokes. These are cigars that range in size but are usually no more than […]
Week in Smoke – TGT Edition
Another assortment of cigars this week for Week in Smoke. Feels good to be home and get back onto a regular schedule. I always look forward to this time of year as we get closer and closer to IPCPR. Releases getting announced, samples arriving at the door…new cigars to love and hate. Any new releases […]
