Nub USA (First Impressions)
Right about now, Brian probably has his feet up, puffing on a cigar, and drinking some form of alcoholic beverage at the Drew Estate Compound in Nicaragua. As a result, I’m filling in for him and have to warn you, if you were looking for a Tower of Burn, you’ll have to check back next […]
Studio Tobac ST-EFG01 (First Impressions)
Last month I received a surprise letter from Oliva. I would seem that despite my vocal displeasure for the way the 2011 Studio Tobac Advisory Board was handled, I was nominated once again to hold a place on the 2012 Studio Tobac Advisory Board. In hopes that things would be different, I accepted the nomination […]
Los Blancos Nine (Short Ashes)
After a very hectic couple of weeks, which involved a totaled vehicle and non-stop phone calls from various insurance people, I am back with a cigar review. This time I revisit the Los Blancos Nine. I first tried this cigar a couple of years back at the IPCPR trade show in New Orleans. I fell […]
CI Legends – Black Label
Welcome to the last of this series review with the CI Legends Black Label by La Aurora Starting out there is a sweet tobacco scent on the wrapper and just plain tobacco on the foot and cold draw. First couple puffs give a woody note but the spice ramps up very quickly and takes over […]
CI Legends – Copper Label
This weeks cigar is the CI Legends Copper Label by Drew Estates. Giving the wrapper a whiff I get a scent of a coffee with a lot of creamer in it. Foot gives off sweet tobacco and the cold draw has a nice vanilla taste to it. It does have a sweetened cap, just so […]
CI Legends – Orange Label
Welcome to the CI Legends Orange Label by Rocky Patel review. Starting out there is a natural tobacco scent on the wrapper, the foot has natural tobacco and some hay and the cold draw gives a little bit of spice with the natural tobacco taste. Right off the bat there is a nice woody spice […]
CI Legends – Purple Label
Welcome to the next installment in the CI Legends series with the CI Legends Purple Label by Graycliff This might be the shortest write up in history as this cigar did not have much complexity to it at all. Starting off there was a sweet barnyard on the wrapper, sweet tobacco on the foot (although […]
Partagas 1845
The newest release from the stables of General Cigars is the Partagas 1845. I have a soft spot for Partagas. Any of you who have been with us since the beginning (can’t believe you have stuck around for over six years) probably found Stogie Review because of my review of the Partagas Black on YouTube […]
CI Legends – Maroon Label
Welcome to the CI Legends Maroon Label cigar review. This cigar is produced by Nestor Placensia and is the same dimensions as all the others. Starting off the wrapper gives a sweet grass scent while there is chocolate on the foot and coffee on the cold draw. Once it is lit there is a superb […]
