They have formed a private smokers club that is a separate entity from the shop. Currently they have club meetings after business hours on Thursdays and other evenings as needed. They are working on getting a separate location for the club, complete with humidor lockers, big screen TV, and...

Coronado by La Flor. Thing nearly made me sick it was so strong.

I have not had fresh crawfish in years. Hard to find them at all up here, even frozen or refrigerated. Grew up in Oregon near a few streams full of them. Mighty tasty.

$200? I could buy a ticket, but would have to live on the street and dig through the dumpster behind the hotel for food. :D

Who says a great cigar has to cost a lot of money? Sancho's are fantastic cigars.

I stopped by Smoking Joe's shop over the weekend. Located on Hufmann road in south Anchorage next to the McDonalds. A small shop, only been open a month now. They have a few cabinet humidors of cigars and carry some well known brands. A.F, Ashton, CAO, RyJ, H. Upmann, among others. They by...

I have had a couple squares over on www.cigarpool.com for the last several weeks. Fun concept and a chance to win a bunch of sticks. They have some spots open right now if anyone else wants to get in on the action.

Salt is not used on the roads in Anchorage. They plow the roads and toss some gravel on the slippery intersections. The rest is up to your driving skills. The first couple snowfalls of the year weed out the speed demons and newbies to real winter driving. 4-wheel drive does NOT mean 4-wheel...

Oh, almost forgot. For a great resturant that is smoker friendly, check out the Bradley House. Great food and they have a nice sign out front warning people that it is a smoke friendly establishment. They have a pretty nice filter system so unless it is really crowded, you will not notice the...

I like the 180, 280 and 50's. They are one of the best smokes for the money for sure.

Alaska? Did someone say Alaska? Welcome to the Great Land bro! You will either love it or hate it. Seems to be very little middle of the road folks up here. If you are into outdoor activities, you will be happy. Anchorage has some of the best trails in the nation. I ride my bike to and...

Their marketing rep offered me a free sampler when I first started to post on cigar forums. He wanted me to try them out and post what I thought. That was over three months ago and I still have not seen the sampler. I emailed him after 6 weeks and he said that they would be sent out right...
