It’s been quite awhile since I last published a Week In Smoke so I figured, after our small vacation after IPCPR, now is a great time to start them back up again. Here is a list of some of the cigars I’ve smoked over the past week or so. Some are some old favorites and […]

IPCPR 2019: Foundation
It’s time for us to talk to Foundation’s Tobacco Güegüense, Nick Melillo in the shadow of the booth’s 13 foot tall pyramids.

IPCPR 2018: Foundation Cigars
As per usual, the Foundation booth was constantly full of people, and full of a mixture of art and cigars.

That tobacco is […]

Top 10 Cigars of 2017
It’s list making season and it’s about time we posted one for Stogie Review. Due to some scheduling difficulties, we’re a little later posting it this year than we planned. But better late than never, right? This year we went with a different approach, abandoning separate lists and opting instead for a single, official Stogie […]
The Tabernacle by Foundation Cigars

I no longer head directly towards the AJ Fernandez New World and now spend a little time wandering […]
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: Foundation Cigars
The very last interview we did before walking off the IPCPR trade show floor for the last time was with Nick Melillo of Foundation Cigars. And it’s a doozy- so buckle in, grab a drink and light up a cigar. A lot of people talk about having a busy show, but the Foundation booth was […]
