I’ll give credit where credit is due. Brian Hewitt rocked at IPCPR. I was only there for the first two days and while we got a lot accomplished in those two days it was up to Brian to hit up the folks we couldn’t do together. Most of you already know all about Pete’s new […]

IPCPR 2011 – Toraño Family Cigars
We’ve received a lot of praise thus far for our coverage of IPCPR and I’m very happy that we can provide great content for all of our fans. We couldn’t do it alone and I want to take a moment to thank a couple people at Toraño Family Cigars for their help in making this […]
IPCPR 2011 – Illusione
It doesn’t get any better than Dion Giolito of Illusione. Whether its his core Illusione line or Epernay or “Cruz”ado he literally has a stellar cigar for everyone. In the video Dion goes into detail about his new offerings. New size of Epernay, Maduro versions of the Illusione line, special MK Ultra and my personal […]
IPCPR 2011 – La Caridad del Cobre
Frank Herrera of La Caridad del Cobre is one of the most interesting, intellectual, fun loving supporters of new media. Its always a blast to hangout with Frank and talk cigars and get legal advice from him. La Caridad del Cobre is probably my dad’s favorite cigar and I’m thankful to Frank for the autographed […]
IPCPR 2011 – Casa Gomez
We finally catchup with our boy Loren Gomez of Casa Gomez. We’ve reviewed Casa Gomez cigars before on the site and so it was a surprise to realize that we never actually interviewed them in any previous years of covering IPCPR. And yes, I really did smoke that 7×64 Casa Gomez cigar. It two hours […]
IPCPR 2011 – La Flor Dominicana
I told you it was a year of firsts for us at IPCPR and this time around its with Litto Gomez from La Flor Dominicana. Digger Natural…Diadema Duo…Colorado Oscuro…Air Bender Maduro…mmmm
IPCPR 2011 – AJ Fernandez Cigars
Another first time interview for us at the show. I’ve been a big fan of all things AJ Fernandez for the past couple years now and always wanted to get some time with him. Sadly I wasn’t sure how to bridge the gap between my Spanish and his English or vice versa. Thanks to his […]
IPCPR 2011: Casa Fernandez
For us here at Stogie Review it was a lot of firsts for this year’s IPCPR. A lot of manufacturers who we’ve never interviewed before stepped up and welcomed us into their booths. One of the first timers is the trio of Paul Palmer, Eduardo Fernandez and Arsenio Ramos (later in the video) of Casa […]
My Father Cigars
In my Sneak Peek: My Father Cigars video I showed you two wrappers of the new Jaime Garcia Limited Edition 2011. That video wasn’t entirely true and if I read the Press Release that Jose Ortega had sent me I would’ve been able to explain it more accurately in that video. Don’t worry, what better […]
