Last Xmas, my brother gave me this cigar amongst many others as a gift. He told a B&M owner a few cigars I liked and asked for reccomendations. This monster of a cigar was one of those. With its dark hue and gigantic size, I was very intimidated. So intimidated that it sat in my father's...

I have a trivoli cabinet from tampa humidor that leaks like a bastard. I assumed I would get what I paid for with it, but I now have a cigar oasis xl and a lb of beads in there, and I have to refull the oasis every 2-3 days. It is constantly fluctuating between 65-67. What can I use to...

So last year while working on the chicago options exchange I picked up a few Ashton ESG's the day they came out at Jack Schwartz's. I tucked them away in the humidor here at home and left for college. Around Christmas time I came back, had one of them, which I found to be very very good, but...

So, I want to start this off by saying that I absolutely adore the Don Pepin Blue Label. I think it is an utterly fantastic smoke, and an incredible deal. I would not hesitate to pay 2X it's price if that was what was charged. I tried the Black Label, and I was not a huge fan. It was ok...

I had this cigar on a recommendation from a friend. The only sun grown I had before was the VSG which was one of my favorites, so I came in expecting a similar favor. Not the case, but it was still a pleasant surprise. The draw was a bit tight, but far from plugged. The flavor, I would...

I want to buy either one of these two humidors. I think the Trivoli is substantially better looking, but I've heard a few things that imply there are some random lemons. I have seen nothing but positive reviews for the connoisseur, but its pretty hideous to me. If you have had an experiance...

Let me preface this review by saying that I smoked this cigar only because of my horrible cigar collecting practices. I have been snatching up CCs like crazy, and I realized that since they must be aged, I was running out of NCs that I could smoke on a regular basis! I found this Camacho in...

So my semester is coming to an end. I am moving out of the dorm May 9th and into an apartment May 23. So here is the problem. The day I leave the dorm I am flying to Boca Raton, Florida for my brother's college graduation. From there, I fly back home to Chicago until the 23rd, then I return...

So I got this for my birthday in January from my dad and it has been sitting in my humidor waiting for the right night. It was a beautiful low 70s night here in Atlanta, so I decided to go outside and give it a shot. For the last two weeks I've been smoking mainly Cuban punch, bolivar, and...

So as the title says this is my first go at a review here. I'll do my best but it will probably end up being brief. First of all, I can't stress this enough, the aesthetics of this cigar are flat out unbelievable. The wrapper is silky smooth, has very small veins, and the draw was...

I feel foolish here, but I can't for the life of me understand how desktop humidors are so much more expensive than most cabinets. I have an Elie Bleu Fruit 120 ct which cost a little under 2 grand. Before that I had a promethus and the elie bleu is substantially better at holding humidity and...
