    Thank You Taboo!

    To whom it may concern, you know who you are. You are Taboo Cigars, specifically I don't who; but whoever you are you are a fine Brother/Sister of the Leaf. A few weeks ago I sent out a plea for help. The call was answered by a HUGE amount of Gorilla's. So huge in fact that I even asked that...

    Wish me luck

    Well everyone it's that time again. Time to leave on this next deployment. The way it looks (right now) is that it should only be for 6 months. If I don't get a chance to post that often while I'm gone, keep in mind I'm gonna explode when I get back. Wish me luck on this deployment, but wish...

    A Moment Of Silence

    To all my B/SOTL's I would like it if everyone could observe a moment of silence for all of the Troops, Marines, soldiers, sailors and airmen serving over sea's and in harms way. I'm aware that Veterans Day is next week as well as the Marine Corps birthday, but right now I'm not exactly sure...

    A Great Review Of A Cao

    The CAO Maduro was definetly a good smoke. The stick lit up very well and the draw was even better for the first half. The second half was tight, and required a hard pull. The wrapper was Connecticut Long Maduro, the filler Dominican Republic and the binder from Ecuador. The length and ring...

    RyJ: thoughts and feelings

    First off let me start by saying that this is not your typical review. It is in fact a review of my thoughts and feelings while I had my afternoon smoke Romeo y Julieta Reserve #2. As we all know RyJ is (in my opinion) one of the best (top 5) cigars, cigar makers ever (I know its a bold...
