I’ve been eying these cigars ever since I brought them back from RTDA. Unlike the other ill-gotten gains I brought back from that trip, I didn’t get these cigars from the show. These guys were handed out by one of the generous people from the Cigar Live forum I met at a herf at an […]
Arganese Connecticut Ambassador
Welcome back for yet another Monday Cigar Review. Up for review this week is the Arganese Connecticut Ambassador and was generously provided by our good friend Jesse from the Cigar Jack News and Reviews Blog. This particular cigar weighs in at 5 inches long with a 50 ring gauge and sports a very appealing Connecticut […]
Cuesta Rey Centenario Pyramid No. 9 (Maduro)
A few weeks ago, I was browsing thru the podcast directory on iTunes to see if there were any new podcasts that I could add to my rotation of virtualization, Stargate, Warcraft and of course cigar related podcasts. Luck would have it that I stumbled upon Chris Trotter and his Cigar Alliance podcast. I listened […]
Graycliff Blue Label PG
A while back one of the Stogie Review readers asked us to review some more high-end cigars. Well, as luck would have it, I recently came across a great deal on a cigar with a normaly big price tag and an equally large reputation: Graycliff. Perhaps you’ve heard of them? 😉 The question is, is […]
La Aurora Preferidos Maduro
Welcome back for another Monday Cigar Review here at Stogie Review (and this time I do actually mean Monday, not Friday). I had originally planned smoking a bargain cigar generously sent to me by our own Havana Bill. At the last minute I decided to go another route and give myself a bit of a […]
Camacho Triple Maduro
Welcome back for another cigar review here at Stogie Review. As some of you may have noticed (or at least I hope you noticed) I was missing in action for a review last week. I had a bit of an allergy problem as the weather started to change for the cooler here in PA. After […]
Ashton San Cristobal Guajiro
Of all the cigars being introduced at this past RTDA, the San Cristobal may have been the cigar I was most looking forward to trying. And try as I might, I had no luck in securing a sample. So when these guys went on sale in a nearby cigar shop I beat feet over to […]
Bolivar (Dominican)
Welcome to the new Stogie Voice (formerly known as The Stogie Sampler). Thanks to everyone who chimed in various ways with various name suggestions for this new audio only feature. Walt reviewed the Bolivar (Dominican) back in June and since I had one of these sitting in my humidor for the last three months, I […]
Don Pepin Garcia Serie JJ Maduro
Switching it up a bit. One of the requests we received awhile back when I asked how we could make The Stogie Review better was to offer quick, concise, picture and audio only reviews. I guess some folks think I don’t have a TV friendly face…in our ever growing attempt to give you (our readers, […]
Primer Mundo Rosado Oscuro Perfecto
This week I’m taking a look at a hometown cigar. That’s right, Atlanta, GA has a cigar manufacturer! And that cigar maker is El Primer Mundo! But if you come to Atlanta looking for a large warehouse of slowly fermenting tobacco, you won’t find it. Neither will you find rows of skilled cigar rollers working […]
