As much as I like to think I am young and hip, when it comes to the marketing of cigars, I am a traditionalist at heart. If you will like some good ideas for traditional marketing that might work for your line of business, visit indexsy. I don’t like flashy packaging (does anyone remember the […]
Hoyo De Monterrey Excalibur 1066 Dark Knight
Years ago, back when I first started smoking cigars, I had this crazy idea that cataloging my cigar purchases would be fun and informative. I went out, purchased labels, and adhered them to the cellophane of any cigar I purchased. The cataloging was tedious work but in my mind it would be well worth the […]
Colibri Astoria Triple Jet Lighter
When it comes to cigar accessories there is one that you simply can not do without. If you’re in a bind and find yourself without a cutter, a pocket knife, fingernails, or even teeth can open up the cigar. They may not do the prettiest job but the job gets done. You really can’t say […]
I want a cigar that will knock me over!
Yesterday afternoon I was feeling bored. With plenty to do around the house and no desire to do any of it, I made the decision to get out for a little while. I hopped in my car and made the grueling 0.8 Mile ride to Sir Stogies to watch football with the guys. As I […]
Tortuga Reserva (Box Pressed)
Over the past few weeks I’ve developed an addiction. My drug of choice has been the Tortuga Reserva Alma. It seems like every time I purchase them, with the intention of reviewing one, I smoke every single one of them before I manage to fire up the camera and record my thoughts. On one shoulder […]
Esteban Carreras Chupa Cabra
A couple of weeks ago I was driving home from work and decided to swing into my local B&M, Sir Stogies. I was in the mood for a firecracker of a cigar and was short on time. I made my way into the humidor and found an empty box of Guerrilla Warfare. I poked around […]
Casa Fernandez Aniversario 2014
Early last week I came home from work to find a package waiting for me on my front porch. I glanced at the shipping label and got all excited. It isn’t very often that I receive samples from Casa Fernandez but when they arrive, they tend to be a rare treat. I wasted no time […]
Rapture by Viva Republica
A couple of weeks ago, I had the pleasure of meeting up with my local Miami Cigar Rep at an event being held at Sir Stogies. In addition to the Casa Miranda Chapter Two (which I reviewed last week), I also picked up a couple of Rapture by Viva Republica. I didn’t initially plan on […]
Indian Tobac Super Fuerte Natural
Last week, Jerry and I were discussing my current commute cigar dilemma. In the morning, when I leave my house before 5:00am, my ride to work takes roughly 35 minutes. No matter what I seem to select as a commute cigar, I always wind up throwing away a portion of it. First I tried a […]
Casa Miranda Chapter Two by Nestor Miranda
Last week I set aside a little time to get out to Sir Stogies for a Miami Cigar Event. It has been a while since I’ve attended an event and I thought it would be a great opportunity to meet up with my local rep, Chris Lenzo, and get caught up on what I’ve missed […]
