Reviews of good Cigars, Wines and Beers
I’ve made mention here and there in some blog posts about, “this is on my top 5” or “this is one on my list” but I never honestly have written this list down. It has only been in my head for a year or 2, so I thought it was time to go ahead and […] Read more »
I enjoy visiting Cigar Shops when I am out of town on vacation or traveling for work, so my desire is to try and visit as many as I can, when I travel, and log those reviews here as well. I might even make a few road trips designated specifically for that purpose :) Read more »
The cigar started off VERY spicy, with a peppery taste that might be overpowering for some. I like pepper and spice in my foods, and sometimes in my cigars too, but this one seemed a bit much. As I expected, however; it mellowed some after the first couple of minutes of being lit. Read more »
Today I picked this cigar out of my humidor which I had purchased some time ago. I wanted a shorter smoke so this Robusto seemed like a good choice. The smoke started lighter than I expected and was smooth and peppery. I tasted hints of leather, but not much else. This smoke is what I […] Read more »

This cigar was my 2nd to smoke in the 5-pack. It started spicy like the previous one and mellowed somewhat after a while, but it remained spicy during the whole smoke.

This month's herf cigar was the Rocky Patel Edge Toro Maduro. This was really an awesome smoke. Like several other Edge cigars I have smoked before, this one was dark in color, but still smooth in taste and boldness. Read more »
We are visiting the island of Kahaui on a vacation to Hawaii this week, and of course I had to find a local cigar to try. Everything is so expensive here. The first cigar shop I went into had these local cigars for $11-$14 per stick. I thought this was a bit high, but then […] Read more »
I was pleasantly surprised with this cigar. Being that it is only about 4″ long, and with a 52 ring gauge, I expected it to get hot quickly, but it never did. There was plenty of smoke, a nice earthy, maybe leather, flavor and it stay lit very well. I am planning on picking up […] Read more »
Wow, its been almost a year since I posted in here. I haven’t stopped smoking cigars, I have just been lazy about posting, so I will try and get better about that. This month for our Herfers Club we had the Coronado by LFD. I tasted hints of floral in this cigar. It burned very […] Read more »
