Up for review this week is the Ashton VSG. This particular stick was requested for review a couple of weeks back. Being one of the first cigars I laid eyes on as I rummaged through my cooler, I decided it was about time I stopped looking at it and started smoking it. During a quick […]
CI Legends (Yellow Label)
Wow! Check out the babbling idiot in the video! Like I promised, I’m back! I forgot how awkward it is to talk to a camera. This will definitely take another video or two before I’m back into the swing of things. I was a bit uncomfortable in my new studio. Anyway, it was some time […]
Davidoff Cigarillo
Today I decided to do a little digging in the humidor and fill a request for a “Little Cigar” for those that are tight on time. The cigar I walked away with is the Davidoff Cigarillo. This little guy weighs in at 4 inches long with a 23 ring gauge. These are machine made in […]
Arturo Fuente 8-5-8 Maduro
After a much needed short vacation, I return this week with a Review of the Arturo Fuente 8-5-8 Maduro. I picked up a few of these sticks to try a few months ago while stopping into a local B&M. With a price tag of $3.75 I decided to give them a shot.
CAO America Potomac
Well boys and girls, I have a treat for you this week. Not only did I get to smoke the new CAO America at RTDA/IPCPR, I managed to secure a few extras so I could give it a proper review. (By time I got to it at the show, I was barely able to taste […]

Gurkha Class Regent Nepalese Warrior
Welcome to the second edition of Brian‘s video-challenged review on the Stogie Review. I know I promised to get on top of that video gear, but as you’ll quickly learn, I’m just a big liar. OK, I’m kidding, I was actually busy schmoozing at RTDA (I have proof!), and still have every intention of getting […]
Genuine PreEmbargo Edicition Limitada
Today I smoked this cigar from JRCigar.com. They bill this cigar as being inspired by the cigar of the same name from Habanos SA, a cuban cigar company. I smoked the corona sized cigar. The cigars come 50 to a cedar chest for a price of about $96 per box. This brings the per cigar […]

Rocky Patel Vintage 1992 Torpedo
Hello there! I guess a quick introduction is in order. This is Brian Hewitt of Brian’s Random (Cigar) Thoughts and I’m filling in for Jerry while he’s away tending to the new edition to his family, the wee lil torpedo! I also should give Walt and Jerry a quick thanks for maintaining such an essential […]
