My review of the Rocky Patel Winter Collection (2009) a few weeks back has renewed my love of Rocky Patel cigars. During this lovefest I discovered that I’ve never reviewed the Rocky Patel Cuban Blend. Similar to the Honduran Classic, the Cuban Blend is a Famous Exclusive…meaning you can only get them at Famous Smoke […]
Camacho Corojo (Short Ashes)
For this weeks short ashes segment, I had planned on smoking the Camacho Candela to commemorate St. Patrick’s Day. Coincidentally, last week I reviewed the Alec Bradley Harvest Selection 1997 while Jerry had planned to review it as well, this week we had the opposite happen. Due to my never being able to top Jerry […]

Camacho Candela
Okay so probably not the most serious review I’ve ever done. Just something funny I put together to get you through the day and in the mood to pound a few back after work. Video runs a little over 6:00 and I promise I’ll never do an Irish accent again. Long ashes…
Trilogy Authentic Corojo by Alec Bradley
Well since Walt stole my review last week..actually “stole” isn’t a fair way to describe it. Since Walt beat me to the punch in reviewing the Harvest Selection I turned my attention to the Authentic Corojo in the Trilogy line by Alec Bradley. I’m not familiar with Alec Bradley cigars. I do have a few […]

Tatuaje Noella Reserva
Hmmm maybe thats Reserva Noellas…whatever, it don’t matter. Its not important. What is important is that these Noellas are bang’n. Imagine if a Tatuaje Black and a Tatuaje Brown got together, hooked up and had babies. Pete Johnson describes the Tatuaje Noella Reserva as a “little monster” (in reference to The Frank in his Monster […]
Trinidad INGENIOUS Edicion Limitada 2007
Back with another Habanos review. Trust me when I say I have a back log of these to do. Look forward to a Cohiba Pyramids Edicion Limitada 2006, a Punch Punch and a very lovely aged Bolivar but this week I have the first and only Edicion Limitada made by Trinidad. The Trinidad Ingenious Edicion […]
23 Minutes with Pete Johnson
Pete Johnson was in the MD/DC area this week doing the tours of three of the local shops in the area. I met up with Pete at W.Curtis Drapers in DC for the 1st Friday event (every 1st Friday of the Month they have someone in the shop for an event). Pete was generous to […]
