Here we have a Pirate’s Gold No. 4 by Rolando Reyes Sr. from Honduras weighing in at 5.5×44. The Pirate’s Gold brand has been made by several manufacturers in as many different countries, with this particular Honduran-grown version apparently no longer being produced. Apparently after this version was released production was moved to the Dominican […]
Oliva Series G Maduro
A couple of days before Christmas, I had the opportunity to sneak away for about an hour or so and try to enjoy some time to myself with a good cigar. The cigar that I decided to go with at that particular time was an Oliva Series “G” Maduro. While at JM Cigars in Exton, […]

5 Vegas Gold
Since the high was 80° F here this afternoon, and I was invited to play for free, I headed out for a round of golf. The weather isn’t very Christmas-y but it’s great for golf. I brought along this 5 Vegas Gold Torpedo at 6×54. I didn’t want to get into anything too strong as […]
Arturo Fuente Chateau Fuente maduro
I enjoy the Arturo Fuente Rothschild maduro and since the Chateau Fuente shares so many characteristics I decided to pick one up. That combined with the fact one of my local shops actually has these priced $.50 cheaper than the Rothschilds made this one sure seem like a winner on paper. Both the Rothschild and […]
Gisbert Maduro
A couple of weeks ago, after finishing the first bargain cigar breakdown, I received a recommendation to try the Gisbert Maduro Toro. A few days later while at my favorite cigar shop I came across a box perched up on a high shelf. Inside I found about a half box, so I picked up a […]
