Last week I received an email from our friend Steven at Lighters Direct. If you aren’t familiar with Lighters Direct, you really should be as they are one of the longest running sponsors we’ve had here on Stogie Review. The email from Steven was a heads up that a few lighters were headed my way […]

Hello everyone and welcome to another event coverage post. This time Genuine Tobacco had Padilla Cigars brand ambassador Susana Aragon in the house along with Mike the Oliva rep.

Diesel Wicked
A couple of months back I reviewed the Diesel Unholy Cocktail. Shortly after that review I was talking with Jerry, trying to flush out some ideas for future reviews. He suggested that I put together a series and go through all of the available Diesel Cigars. I thought Jerry’s idea was great and began the […]

We didn’t want to “reinvent the wheel” so to speak. We wanted something that worked like the optimized mobile version of the site and include push notification […]

Accessory Review: Xikar Mayan Table Top Light and Xikar VX Metal V Cutter
I’ve had several people ask me to do some accessory reviews, especially of items I use regularly. I thought that was a good idea and something that seems neglected by us and many of our other brother and sisters of the leaf reviewers. For the first review, I had to use two of my most […]

In that goal, this upcoming weekend (March 22-24, 2013), Stogie Review has partnered with our friends at W.Curtis Draper, Civil Cigar Lounge and Miami Cigar & Company to do our part to keep the food shelves stocked […]
La Aurora Corojo
Years ago, when I first began visiting local cigar shops, I developed a bad habit of avoiding anything from La Aurora with the old-school-looking lion band. No matter what size or shape I tried, I just couldn’t enjoy it, no matter how hard I tried. That early distaste for the cigar still causes a bit […]
Davidoff Millennium Blend Lancero
This morning I woke up to a variety of alerts on my phone. The first one I read was in reference to a review of a Swisher Electronic Cigar on Stogie Review. While I’m a firm believer in a united cigar smoking community, I struggled with the concept of such a product being reviewed here. […]
