Surprising in that it’s a limited edition that hit the markets last year, around six months ago at this point. I have a couple of reasons for reviewing it now. The first and foremost is convenience. I was working […]

IPCPR 2015: Viaje

I passed the Viaje booth at IPCPR 2015 several times thinking Andre Farkas wasn’t there. It turns out he was there the whole time, I just didn’t recognize him without his trademark glasses.

Re+United by Ernesto Perez-Carrillo & Michael Giannini

Today I bring you something a little different than my usual Week in Smoke. Since around this time every year I usually spend a lot of time in front of a camera, I thought I’d try my hand at video cigar review. And I picked a cigar that I’ve been meaning to review for a […]
