Ben’s Top 10 Cigars of 2013 It’s that time of that year where we put out our top cigars of the year. It always hard to try to put our favorite cigars together for a top ten list. There are so many really good cigars that it makes it hard to pick just 10 and […]
The Box-Worthies: Brian’s Top 10 Cigars of 2013
With 2013 now safely behind us it’s time for a top ten cigar list for 2013. I know what you’re thinking, “Top ten cigars? Whatever can that be?” Here’s how it works: What follows is a list of cigars that I most enjoyed smoking in 2013. I’ve numbered them for your convenience, but get this- […]
Camacho Blackout Figurado
Late in 2013, Camacho announced a new limited edition cigar called the Camacho Blackout. This new cigar went through an extensive fermentation process for its wrapper called “press fermentation”. The process is where extra weight is added to the top of the pilones (large tobacco stacks) as the wrappers fermented. This gave the wrapper its […]
Walt’s Quick Six: Volume 1
Every year we, as cigar smokers, come up with a list of New Years Resolutions. Some vow to get their cigar budget under control while others make an effort to branch out and try new products. My goal was to make the most of my cigar time and produce more content for Stogie Review. To […]
Brian’s The Week In Smoke, Issue 40
Happy New Year! If you’re reading this, you made it through another calendar. Nicely done. Whatever you thought of 2013, I hope 2014 is better year all around. Now, ideally I’d have my Top 10 list ready for your New Year’s Day enjoyment, but that’s not quite ready yet. Soon. In the meantime, I have […]
Week In Smoke: Walt’s Quick Six
It has been a long time since I’ve done a Week In Smoke. I try to avoid doing them because they usually take me longer to do than a video. Since I don’t have my camera handy, and I’m feeling a little guilty about having three videos that need editing, I sat down to whip […]
Asylum 13 – Sixty
This has been a rough year in the White Household. With Christmas right around the corner, I’ve been sticking to the deal sights to try and stretch by cigar budget as much as possible. Doing this doesn’t provide much variety but I’ve been able to stock my humidor with some pretty good buys. A little […]
TGT Top 10 Sampler
Thanks to everyone for the kind words on my Top 10 List this year. I was surprised to hear from many of you who mentioned only having tried a handful of the cigars on my list. It just so happens that my friends at Tobacco Leaf in Jessup MD carry every one of my Top […]
Brian’s The Week In Smoke, Issue 39
It’s once time again for another issue of Brian’s The Week In Smoke. In case this is your first Week in Smoke, be advised that it covers many (though not necessarily all) of the cigars I’ve smoked in the past week (or the past month, or however long it has been since the last issue), […]
