A lot of people have asked us when we were going to do another Herfin’ Heads cigar review video. The answer is today. The technical terrors have been tamed (knock on cedar coffin), and we have a joint video review of the Dunbarton Tobacco & Trust Muestra de Saka Nacatamale ready for viewing at your […]
Brian’s The Week In Smoke, Issue 113
Hopefully you’ll have a chance to eat too much, put your feet up, and light up a few good cigars this week while being generally thankful for the good things in life. That’s my goal. Before donning my combat gear and rushing out at o’ dark-thirty to buy a 937” razzamataz definition television with the […]
Brian’s The Week In Smoke, Issue 112
You may have noticed I’ve been a little quiet since The IPCPR 2017 Complete Digest posted a few weeks back. Sadly, I haven’t been on vacation, well, I was for the last week. It’s that time of year, and I caught whatever crud du jour that was going around. I don’t know for sure, but […]
IPCPR 2017: Complete Digest
At long last, the marathon of IPCPR 2017 coverage is complete. It took a little longer than expected to get them all posted, but then, we filmed a few more interviews than we did last year. About a dozen more, in fact. That included a big expansion of videos covering products (and topics) related to, […]
IPCPR 2017: Dunbarton Tobacco & Trust
This year we didn’t sit down with with Steve Saka of Dunbarton Tobacco & Trust until the 3rd day of IPCPR. He was self-deprecating as always, but you don’t have to brag when your booth is constantly full of people. Initially he was a little annoyed by the trade show venue change up, but after […]

Ben’s Top 10 Cigars of 2016
Well, it’s that time of the year again. Time for my Top 10 Cigars of the Year for 2016. A lot of our blogger friends are releasing their list around this time along with us and I love to read their list as well. We have our own personal likes and dislikes, so it’s interesting […]
Brian’s The Week In Smoke, Issue 103
If there’s a theme for this Week In Smoke, it’s a mix of new cigars and relaxation. Heavy on the relaxation. Maybe a little procrastination too. It’s been a busy summer, and I for one am ready to welcome a less hectic season of bourbon and heavier beers. Sure, I drink both year round, but […]
IPCPR 2016: Complete Digest
And our IPCPR 2016 coverage is complete. It took us a little longer to get everything posted, due in large part to our decision to switch our gear and software out all at once. But it all worked out in the end. We didn’t talk to everyone we wanted to interview, but we never do. […]
IPCPR 2016: Dunbarton Tobacco & Trust
Energy levels were much higher in the Dunbarton Tobacco & Trust booth this year, probably partially due to catching Steve Saka early on in show, and also part due to the lack of last years production problems. In 2015 the highly anticipated Sobremesa was not ready for sampling in Saka’s judgement. So he held his […]
