Just the other day I was checking my email and saw something come through from our good friend Doc over at Stogiefresh. If you haven’t heard, Doc has put together an event that features food, beverages, entertainment, and education on the Central Coast of California. If you are free on September 18th and 19th, head […]
Frank Llaneza 1961
This review comes courtesy of Chad Airhart (Stogie1) from www.stogie1.wordpress.com Yesterday evening while sitting at the Cigar shop, the tobacconist there walked in with a box of Frank Llaneza 1961’s. Straight off the truck. I had heard about these from the IPCPR show, and seen an ad for them in a couple of cigar magazines. […]
Factual Cigar Database
Back in June I got an email from Grant over at Factual. In the email Grant introduced himself and described Factual as the “Wikipedia of Data“. He told me that he stumbled onto Stogie Review and liked what he saw. As a result, he invited me to have a look at the beta site. What […]
CNN Video on Hav-A-Tampa Closure

Brian was focusing on taking photos while Jerry and I both had equipment for both still and video, which we […]
ISO Cigars
A little ways back I was on the Cigar Outcast forum poking around like I normally do a few times per week and I came across mention of a new cigar site. What set this site apart was that it wasn’t like many of the other cigar sites out there, this one was geared towards […]
