The Camacho Ecuador was released this year as an edition to the Camacho line. This new cigar features an Ecuadorian habano wrapper with a price point of $6.50. I was sent a box of these from Dylan Austin of Camacho for review (Thanks Dylan!). I had smoked several of these at my local shop before […]
Brian’s The Week In Smoke, Issue 68
Round one of holiday overeating is in the books, and with any luck you’ve napped the tryptophan completely out of your system. I hope any weight you may have gained in the past week accentuates your nicest features. I know my abs have never been larger or more uniform, I don’t even have to flex […]
Brian’s The Week In Smoke, Issue 67
Thanksgiving is nigh, and it’s time to take into account the things we are thankful for. My list includes the usual suspects: friends, family, health, gainful employment, fine cigars, good beer and barrel-aged spirits. (Not always in that order, but close enough.) But I’d also like to thank the people who visit Stogie Review and […]

La Palina Black Label Robusto
La Palina introduced the Black Label line at this years IPCPR in Las Vegas. This new cigar line was made to compliment the other already successful lines by La Palina by being more full bodied than the others. This cigar uses a unique wrapper that I haven’t run across before along with Dominican and Nicaraguan […]
Dante Vita Nova Canto III
Today I take a look at Dante Cigar’s sophomore release, a Nicaraguan puro called Vita Nova. The blend is similar to the original Dante line, but differs in the wrapper. In the Vita Nova Nicaraguan Corojo takes over for the original’s Mexican San Andres. The name translates to “new life” which as Mike Huff told […]
Crowned Heads Tennessee Waltz
Crowned Heads introduced the Tennessee Waltz this year to only their retailers in the state of Tennessee. This cigar, made by My Father Cigars, is based off the song, Tennessee Waltz which was playing in the dance hall where Jon Huber’s maternal grandparents met. The cigar features a Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper along with binder and […]
