5 Vegas Limitada – 2006
A couple of weeks ago, I got myself involved in a PIF (Pay it forward) over at Club Stogie. Shortly after getting my name on the list, I received my end of the PIF. I received an excellent variety of smokes, one of which was a 5 Vegas Limitada 2006 blend.
Rocky Patel Olde World Reserve – Corojo (Toro)
I have to give credit to this stogie to my older brother Chris, owner of Sebori Systems, for providing me with these stogies. I had a hard time finding the Rocky Patel Olde World Reserve or the Master Blend 7XX online and at my local shops. I’m not good at stogie hunting like others are. […]

Ashtray Reviews
I wanted to do something a little different, we have been reviewing cigars exclusively as of late and I thought it would be a nice change of pace to review some cigar products.
El Rey Del Mundo (Flor De Llaneza Maduro)
In my opinion, El Rey Del Mundo is one of those cigars that get overlooked when walking around your local shop. Its one of those classic names that never surprise you. Its an old stand by when it comes to cigars. The smoker knows what they are getting with each smoke. With so many new […]
Montecristo Peruvian (Especiale #2 – Maduro)
Last week (June 28th to be exact) I was at my local JR Cigars doing my normal lunchtime routine and who walks in? Former majority leader, Tom DeLay. I’m not a big political nut but I always find it interesting to see what kind of cigars famous people smoke. After Mr. DeLay played with his […]
