Every year, we try to come up with our individual Top 10 Cigars of the Year which is quite a task. There are so many really good cigars out there, its hard to choose only 10. At Stogie Review, we do it a little different in where we choose the top 10 cigars we smoked […]
Week in Smoke – Bayou Edition No. 9
I’ve been working all week on getting my Top 10 Cigars of the Year list ready, but its not easy. I thought I had an idea of what my 10 favorites were, but as I looked through my Facebook pictures and talked to my cigar buddies, I realized it wasn’t going to be as easy […]
Camacho Ecuador Robusto
The Camacho Ecuador was released this year as an edition to the Camacho line. This new cigar features an Ecuadorian habano wrapper with a price point of $6.50. I was sent a box of these from Dylan Austin of Camacho for review (Thanks Dylan!). I had smoked several of these at my local shop before […]
Week In Smoke No. 8 – Bayou Edition
I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving with plenty of good smokes. Nothing follows a great meal better than a nice cigar. Luckily, I had a good bit of down time and didn’t have to do as much cooking as I normally do this Thanksgiving thanks to my family. That means more time for cigars […]
Week In Smoke – Bayou Edition No. 7
I don’t do many Week in Smoke, but I’ve been down with a bad sinus infection the past couple of weeks so I haven’t been smoking many cigars. This past week, I’ve finally been able to enjoy some old favorites and some new cigars. I visited my good friend Jason Jackson, manager of Cigars and […]
La Palina Black Label Robusto

This new cigar line was made to compliment the other already successful lines by La Palina by being more full bodied than the others. This cigar uses a unique wrapper that I haven’t run across before along with Dominican and Nicaraguan […]

This cigar, made by My Father Cigars, is based off the song, Tennessee Waltz which was playing in the dance hall where Jon Huber’s maternal grandparents met. The cigar features a Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper along with binder and […]
Kafie 1901 Don Fernando Maduro 6 year Anejo robusto
When I was visiting the new Crescent City Cigars location in Metairie, LA, I picked up a Kafie 1901 Don Fernando Maduro 6 year Anejo robusto on the recommendation of Armando Ortiz, the owner. I had never heard of Kafie cigars before, but he talked me into giving it a shot. I have to say […]
Elogio Crescent City Cigars Exclusivo
Elogio has created the Crescent City Cigars Exclusivo for the second year in a row for Crescent City Cigars in New Orleans, LA. Armando Ortiz, the owner of Crescent City Cigars, sent a few of these to me for review and to get my opinion on them. We are both big fans of Elogio Cigars, […]
Sosa Classic Wavell Maduro
The Sosa Classic has been around for quite awhile and was one time in the Top 25 Cigars of the Year from Cigar Aficionado. I have smoked several of these over the years in the natural wrapper, but rarely, if ever, smoked their maduro version. I’m very picky about maduro cigars as I only like […]
