This year’s coverage of IPCPR was by far our best and most in depth work. We set all kinds of records here at Stogie Review in unique visitors, page views, time on site and all those other analytic measures, some of those values actually doubling and tripling. Thats nice and all but its never been […]
Email Overhaul
Over the last five years, Stogie Review has been using the mail server provided by our web host. In the early days this was a great way for us to send and receive correspondence with the Stogie Review Fans. As time passed and our email load increased, messages began going missing. As of late, this […]
Thank You – 5 Year Anniversary
I wanted to take a moment to thank our loyal readership/viewership. Five years ago today, The Stogie Review was born. Two geeks (Walt & I) who played Battlefield 1942 online together discovered we had a similar love for the leaf and on a whim decided to start The Stogie Review to share our thoughts with […]
Happy Thanksgiving

Work Flow
I’ve been busy as of late with work, Gracie’s first birthday (happy birthday again baby girl) and a mess of other stuff so I really haven’t had too much spare time to smoke enough to do a fair review of anything. As I get back on track I thought I’d publish something that I’ve put […]

Time was really tight this week, so instead of a video review, I decided to do a little Stogie Review update instead. In the video below I talk a little bit about some time off I’ll be taking when the baby arrives. In addition I also talk a little bit about what we have coming […]
Contest: Win a Box of Pinar del Rio 1878 Cubano Especial Cigars
A few days ago I was on Facebook talking with Abe Flores of Pinar del Rio. We talked about a variety of things and Abe made mention of wanting to spread the word about his new line of cigars. I suggested that giving away a box would go a long way in spreading the word […]
Stogie Review Live
Earlier this week I was browsing through my RSS Reader and saw that Google Wave came out of private beta. With it being open to the public came the option to embed a wave within a page for the world to see. That got me thinking about how we could utilize the service to benefit […]
Fan Forums Upgraded
Back in August 2007 we opened the doors to the Stogie Review Fan Forums. Now, I’m not going to make any outlandish claims like a certain forum conglomerate does but over the past two and half years its grown into an impressive community both in quantity and quality. Its definitely exceeded any expectations we had […]
