    Padilla Robusto Maduro

    Last night I had a Padilla Maduro Robusto. The cigar was firm in hand and had no soft spots what so ever. It had no sheen or oils present on the wrapper that was dark chocolate in color with a couple of small veins. I clipped the head with my plastic double guillotine and noticed a good draw...

    Boo For La Flor Dominicana Small Batch

    Okay, I have had two of these now and I cant figure out what the rage is all about. Both had terrible burns, were unbalanced. Had a lot of flavor and body but the cigar was a ton of work and never came together. Very ashy finish also. Anyone else have one of these yet? 83/100

    Chris's Cigar Reviews

    1/21/07. Tonight's smoke of the day was the Partagas Serie D. No. 4. As many of you know this is one of the most popular Habanos available. Firstly, if you are a fan or not a fan of Opus, but just a fan of spicy smokes, then this is a cigar you would enjoy. The prelight aroma is very nice...

    K. Hansotia Symphony

    This afternoon, I was looking for a milder smoke since I hadn't had dinner yet. I remembered this one that was part of my Cigar of the Month club a while back. I typically smoke medium to full bodied cigars so this one wasn't high on my priority list. I decided to light it up. Since it is a new...

    Cuvee Grand Review

    As I write this, I am currently smoking the lastest incarnation of this cigar, number 01050. The cigar has a very dark wrapper with a wonderful prelight aroma. The wrapper is rough and veiny, but it is certainly rolled with great care. This lancero burns very well and even, and the ash falls...

    Maduro Criollo - A review.

    Maduro Criollo I paired this cigar with some Kona Coffee & Bottled Water. Length 4&15/16ths + Pig Tail Ring Gauge 48 Wrapper – Maduro nice rich brown, silky & an oily sheen. I would not call this oily but more silk like. No big veins, no flaws in the wrapper. I tasted the wrapper...

    First Look Rocky Patel OSG (One Time Only)

    Back in 02 when rocky wanted to make the Sun Grown, he originally made them at the UST factory. He made about 30000 cigars in the first batch and was ready to go full speed ahead. However, the factory was lost to General cigar in a law suit and he had to move and start over at another factory to...

    Bad Knight With Black Pearl. . . .

    That's a little take off on an old movie title, Bad Day At Black Rock. Whatever in the world prompted me to take out the 6x50 Black Pearl that Vince sent me a few months ago, to finish off a relaxing night with, as the clock wound down in last night's Documentary, Rock Concert, Football Game...

    Kuzi's Cigar Catalog

    A few cigars ago I decided that I was going to catalog (almost) every cigar that I smoked as I smoked it. After much internal debate, I have decided to share this catalog with the good folks at amback. I am already a few pages (cigars) in so I will post from the beginning of my catalog and will...

    CAO Black Mosaic

    Sunday was a fine September day in Saskatchewan so I thought I would celebrate with a good cigar and a good book in the back yard. I am reading Christine by Steven King right now, so I guess one ouf of two isn't bad. The CAO black is a cigar produced by CAO only for Cigars International, and...

    Kudos to Xikar

    I have (or had) a Xikar punch cutter that I bought about 3 years ago. I have carried this in my pocket on my key ring since I bought it and though it is very scratched up and ugly, it has served me well over the years. A few weeks ago the retaining screw that holds the blade in place...

    Oh my God I am In Heaven...

    One of the advantages to being involved with Cigar.com is my ability to take on some fun projects. One of which has been taking my favorite blends and sampling different sizes and how they effect the taste. I have been using this little experiment to have exclusive sizes made just for...
