It’s once time again for another issue of Brian’s The Week In Smoke. In case this is your first Week in Smoke, be advised that it covers many (though not necessarily all) of the cigars I’ve smoked in the past week (or the past month, or however long it has been since the last issue), […]
IPCPR 2013: Complete Digest
With the 2013 IPCPR Trade Show in Las Vegas officially behind us, it is about time we put together a complete digest of our coverage. As you can see, we came away with a lot of video again this year. Brian and Jerry did an awesome job on the show floor and we look forward […]
Brian’s The Week In Smoke, Issue 29
It’s once time again for another issue of Brian’s The Week In Smoke. This edition covers both cigars I had prior to IPCPR 2013, and a few I’ve had since. (Look for a more IPCPR-centric edition soon.)

IPCPR 2013 Post Mortem
It’s been nearly a week since IPCPR 2013 ended, and I could help but reflect on the events of the show, good, bad and otherwise. Bad Boys of IPCPR It makes sense to start at the beginning. After answering questions about it all show, I started to regret making it public, but there was too […]
IPCPR 2013: Sam Leccia
Every year we have a minor hiccup with IPCPR Coverage. Fortunately, we are past the days of those hiccups being hosting related. This time, unfortunately, they came in the form of Brian’s camera dying. The good news is that it happened right at the end of the interview so I’m told you aren’t missing much. […]
IPCPR 2013: La Flor Dominicana
During Brian’s time in the La Flor Dominicana Booth, two videos were recorded. The first was a new product tour and the second was focused on the new La Flor Dominicana Chapter 1. Rather than post two separate La Flor Dominicana Videos, I decided it would be best to combine them into a single video […]
IPCPR 2013: JC Newman
In this video, Brian is walked through the large JC Newman / Cigar Family booth and is introduced to new products.

IPCPR 2013: Miami Cigar
If you aren’t familiar with the story, Barry Stein was once a cigar blogger. Barry has always been a friend of Stogie Review and, not terribly long ago, he made the transition from Blogger to working for Miami Cigar. As someone from the outside looking in, I think Barry made a great move. He looks […]
IPCPR 2013: Guayacan Cigars
In this video, Brian spends a little time with Noel Rojas of Guayacan Cigars. The video is short and sweet but does a good job of introducing a product that, up until this point, I was very unfamiliar with. Sponsored by http://drewestate.com/ipcpr
IPCPR 2013: Ezra Zion
In this video, Brian spends a few minutes in the Ezra Zion booth to get the scoop on what is new and exciting. I can’t say that I’ve ever smoked an Ezra Zion but after checking out the interview, I’ll be keeping an eye out. Sponsored by http://drewestate.com/ipcpr
