    La Aroma de Cuba

    I just tried these this past weekend for the first time. The flavor was rich and the cigar smoked smooth and even. Only problem with them was that one would not stay lit as it came down to the band. But I like them!!! More sliding down the slope for me. Now I will have to figure out how I can...

    Great deal at JRCigar

    I recently received their catalog and, while only okay, this time they had something that really caught my eye. They have boxes of Ramon Allones cigars at a 20 dollar discount from their already low prices. I went ahead and pulled the trigger on a box of 20 Briosos for 40 bucks. These babies are...

    Shoving my nephew down the slope

    A few weeks ago I had my nephew over for a party. I introduced him to some CAO Flavours Moontrance cigars. Now he is hooked on them. He's even talking about a box purchase and humidor to store them in.... I always knew that uncles were the best corrupting influences on young minds. :ss

    Nice vacation

    Well, it was time for my week long vacation in Milwaukee. Having soem spare change in my pocket I decided to only bring a couple of smokes with me and hit one of the local B&M's. I was not disappointed with what I found. I hit the Little Havana Cigar bar on the west side of Milwaukee, or West...

    J Fuego Natural Toro

    Last week my local B&M had a J Fuego promo and, having heard good things about these cigars, I decided to go there. Well, I was not disappointed. I bought several J Fuego Natural Toros and received several of the Corojo line. Last night I decided to try one of the Naturals. Here's my review...

    Joyo de Nicaragua Celebracion

    Don't you just love it when a B&M ages a cigar for you before you buy it? Mind you this can be a good thing, or a bad thing, for that matter. If a B&M is aging a cigar that means that A: They suck and they can't move them, or B: they just don't sell, regardless of how good they are. I bought...

    RP 1990 vs. Rp 1992

    Well, it was bound to happen. A few months ago I was introduce to the world of the Rocky Patel Vintage 1992 series with a churchill from Massphatness. They are really wonderful cigars and I have purchased several fivers from the evilwebsitewhosenamewewillnotmention. Having luxuriated with these...

    Romeo Y Julietta Habana Reserve

    I haven't done a review in a while, so I figured I'd get one out. This time I decided to give Romeo Y Julietta Habana Reserve line of cigars. I decided to try the Corona since it's size, 5 1/2 X 44, is the size I like to smoke. A few months ago I reviewed the Fonseca Habana Seleccion cigar and...

    Rocky Patel Vintage 1992 Churchill

    A few weeks ago I received some cigars from Massphatness on the newbie PIF forum. One of the smokes he sent me was a Rocky Patel Vintage 1992 Churchill. After smoking this sucker I decided to pick up some more to confirm my suspicions about this stogie. After smoking several more it's...

    Bad day for cigars

    Today was a day that I had not one, but two bad cigars. Normally I smoke only one cigar a day but today, it was a pretty day and I decided to give two a shot. The first one I had was an AVO signature series that did want to behave. Since this was my first AVO ever I really wanted to dig into...

    So which is it?

    Our beloved CI and its evil twin have the same cigar up for auction but with two vastly differing descriptions. http://www.cigarsinternational.com/prodDisp.asp?item=CS-FTA&cat=3 http://www.cigarbid.com/auction/lot.cfm?lotID=541290#desc So which would you go with? Since it's a cheapie, I would...

    3 types of cigars

    In my limited time of smoking cigars I have made a startling discovery. Well, not startling, but a minor revelation to say the least. Let me explain. Now I have always thought of there being three kinds of food. First, there are three kinds of food: good food, bad food and filling food. Good...

    Progression of favorites

    I have been smoking for less than two years now, but I have already had a progression of favorites. My tastes have not really changed, just which cigars I regularly smoke has. So far, my progression has gone thus: 1. Punch Rothschild Maduro (My first favorite) 2. Sancho Panza Extra Fuerte...

    Fonseca Habana Seleccion Delicias

    The evil auction website waved it's bony claw at me summoning me to my doom. Like a moth attracted to a flame I fluttered over to the 5 pack auctions and found a lot of Fonseca Habana Seleccion Delicias'. Having had Fonsecas before I decided to try these, because, hey, they said Habana on them...

    Tipped cigars

    My wife, Jenny, said she wouldn't mind smoking a cigar or two but only if they have a tip on them. Since the only ones I have seen with tips are the cheapie liquor store variety, I was wondering if there were any good quality tipped cigars? Any ideas?

    Just curious

    I have been advocating the health benefits of smoking cigars with some friends of mine at work. Quite a few are not cigar smokers and are, quite frankly, not fond of the idea of smoking them. I guess getting dried out White Owls from the liquor store would turn you off to them too. But in order...

    Padron Delicias Naturale

    I decided to do another 3 cigar review. This time I decided to give the Padron Delicias Naturale a try. These cost me about 4 dollars at my B&M but I noticed that they are running about 2.50-3.00 online. I will use the same criteria that I did for my review of the Oliva Series G cigar. 1...

    Oliva Series G Double Maduro

    After reading all the rave reviews about the Oliva brand I decided to take the plunge and try one, or three. Looking at what my B&M had available, and being the cheapskate that I am, I decided to try the double robusto, it being the least expensive. I also realized that smoking only one cigar...
