A few months back, Jerry, Brian, and I were talking about some of the things we would like to do in the future with Stogie Review. Most of the discussion was aimed at reorganizing and the creation of new pages. While we talked, Brian mentioned doing some kind of Frequently Asked Questions page to help […]

Nosotros by Illusione
Lets see if I can get this right this time around without…you know…infringing on someone’s copyright or privileged working documents and all.

Similar to the MX3, the CAO Bratalia is part of the CAO Escaparate collection. The collection consists of concept cigars, special occasion cigars and generally cigars that CAO didn’t have the resources to make […]
