The Avo Limited Edition cigars are always really good cigars and this year’s Improvisation should be no exception. This year’s Avo limited edition is a first on two fronts. One, it’s a box press cigar and, two, it’s in a 60 ring gauge. I’m glad they did a box press when they decided to do […]
Partagas Ramon y Ramon Maxim Grande
There are a number of reasons to review the Partagas Ramon y Ramon. To begin with, we haven’t yet. That is generally reason enough. Then there’s the whole regenerated vintage tobacco thing. That’s also interesting. But the real reason I’m lighting up the Ramon y Ramon this week is that I won a box on […]
Aguila Cigars – Flight Review – CONTEST (Contest ended)
I was recently approached by iHavanas to review their new Aguila cigar line produced in Nicaragua. iHavanas is mainly known for being one of the premier sellers of Cuban cigars, but with the growing interest in Europe for Nicaraguan cigars, iHavanas has brought out their own Nicaragua cigar for this new and growing fan base. Not […]

Serino Royale Maduro XX Toro
I was approached a couple of months ago by Serino Cigars to review there Royale Maduro XX. I hadn’t heard of Serino Cigars at the time, but was happy to give them a shot. Serino Cigars was founded in 2016 by Tony Serino and his son, Carson, who partnered with Omar Gonzales Aleman. Aleman worked at […]
Colibri V-Cut
I’m a pretty simple cigar smoker when it comes to accessories. I use my S. T. Dupont lighters and Xikar cutters because I consider them the best on the market. I’ve picked up a new cutter several months ago that has me reconsidering my cutter choice. I saw where Colibri had introduced a new line […]
D’Crossier Selection 512 Lancero
While on a recent trip to the Dominican Republic, I was given a cigar that I’ve heard a lot about but almost never saw. This trip was with several other bloggers, some I’ve known for quite some time and some I was meeting for the first time. One of them was Master Sensei, Eric Guttormson, […]
Manolo Estate Serie 32 Habano
