CAO MX3 (Short Ashes)
A couple of months back I was at Kensington Tobacconist and bumped into my local CAO Cigars rep, Paul Spence. He was familiar with Stogie Review and we got to talking about a review of the W. Curtis Drapers Exclusive CAO MX3. When he learned that I hadn’t tried it yet, he offered to send […]

Cigar Wallpapers – Round 2
The last week has been very busy for me and I’ve been spending a lot of time running from one place to the next. As a result, I wasn’t able to find the time to record my regular review and had to push it off a day. Pushing it off a day left us with […]
Casa Magna Colorado Robusto (Short Ashes)
With the arrival of Jerry’s Petit Corona getting closer and closer, he has been dealing with a landslide of work at his day-job. He asked me if I could step in for him while he gets his head above water and I saw it as the perfect opportunity to finally smoke that acclaimed Cigar of […]
