My initial experience with the My Father Le Bijou 1922 line was one of indifference. The cigars were pretty good, but not something I thought was worth the price. But then on a recent visit to Puff ‘N’ Stuff, a shop here in Georgia, Al, the owner, renewed my interest in the Le Bijou. Apparently […]
Corona Cigar Company 10th Anniversary Robusto
Welcome to another one of my first impression reviews, this time on the Corona Cigar Company’s 10th Anniversary cigar in the robusto (5×50) size. Starting off, the wrapper is a little lumpy at places and does not have much of a scent. I get some wood from the foot and on the cold draw. Lighting […]

Keep them and their families in your thoughts and/or prayers. Earlier this month, General Cigar Co release the El Perrito War of Flavors. A cigar entirely crafted by hand. Not […]
Listen to Jerry on the BOTCAST
I’m late in posting this but last week I had the chance to sit in on a relatively new cigar podcast call BOTCAST. The crew from the BOTCAST were nice enough to invite me on their show and we had a great time discussing cigars and buck fever. These guys come from a rich background […]
