    15 years of aging

    Okay, last night I was at this BBQ. One of the guests was a sales distributor for some cigar (I forget the actual name) claiming he sells to most cigar stores in Toronto. After talking with him for a bit we came to the subject of how there are cigars that are equally as great that are not...

    Okay, I've been smoking cigars for a number of years but have never had the luck of smoking one with bloom on it. Well today that might have changed...I think. So I went out today to my usual B & M to pick up my usual smoke. I think the guy remembers me because he gave me the key to his...

    Good Young Cigars

    Hope this hasn't been covered before, if so please forgive me. Besides smoking cigars, reading reviews of others to see what they thought interests me. With that being said, I've noticed some reviewers commenting on some cigars saying that they taste really good very young. I know that there...

    Leather Tasting Notes

    Here's something that's been buging me for a while and I want to get it off my chest. When I smoke my cigars I try not to be too pretencious with what flavors I get from it. If I can't pin point the actual taste, I don't make stuff up on my cigar sheets (I keep a cigar log) I usually say...

    Over Rated Hyped Cigars

    Had an idea to make this post when reading a lot of cigar reviews. I find some cigars are way over rated. Instead of just complaining, try suggesting an alternative that is better (in your opinion) to the one mentioned. I'll start. Montecristo #2 - Over Rated H. Upmann #2 - Very Nice!

    Pocket Humidor's

    I've had my pocket humidor for quite a while and I still love it. For anyone just starting smoking cigars, I would look into getting one. Beats the zip-lock bag anyday. Of course a real humidor is better, but they're great if you plan to smoke one on the go later on in the day. Personally I...
