cigar reviews

Anyone tried them? They seem to be popping up more and more on the web.

Anyone smoke one of these yet. I took about 5 out of the aging room last week and they have all been dynomite. Very buttery and smooth yet full of flavor. I would be curious if anyone else has gotten the same level of success from theirs.

I've never tried this cigar before. But I have yet to smoke a Gurkha I didn't like. Anyone tried this? What did you think?

Well I wanted to wait for a special occasion and this was it. My friend that I have known since kindergarten was getting married. I actually introduced them at a scotch tasting. Ha Ha my plan worked now he is not moving to Florida. Anyway after him and his bride left we packed the tables...

It's Sunday night and I just got back inside from hanging out on the deck with the dogs. I fired up a Flor de Oliva Natural Toro and it still did not disappoint. I don't know what it is about these, but I've yet to find anything that packs the same bang for the buck. I'll admit my taste buds...

Sorry I did not update after the first day. The show this year was only three days and it was a lot of work. All in all I thought the releases this year were decent, there were a few cigars that really impressed me but it seems that more and more cigar makers were launching sticks in the 10...

The box of 5X47 Uruhu arrived, and I was like a giddy school girl. I couldn't wait to dive in, as I had enjoyed the Kilimanjro so much. As I opened the box, my eyes crossed from the aroma, wow, I figured this was going to be strong. But, nothing wrong with that. So, I discarded the cellophane...

Anyone else get a look at the new cigar insider that came out today. Peterson cigars (the new one from ashton) was a hit. Of the 5 sizes, 3 recieved a 91 and the other 2 a 90 I have only smoked the churchill and must say they have a nice aroma. I am typically not one for a cameroon wrapper...

I don't need to finish it to give you the review. Strong elements of a modern auto body shop and generalized by products from the labeled industry (Black Diamond = coal) and also the petrochemical industry. Great cigar!!! :roll:

coffee shop, Oren's, 30th Street and 3rd Avenue location, Thursday morning, October 7th. I walked out with a 20 oz. black coffee, one packet of turbinado sugar stirred in. Another very bright, beautiful morning, getting more hours at the firm, just finished up a nice shift, income stabilizing...

While at the office today I tried out one of the new Guantanamera Cristales. While very mild, it wasn’t bad. In fact, it was pretty darn good. Timing was lousy since we have been knee deep in working on the website and I couldn’t exactly sit back and savor the taste. I'll have to try another one...

Tuesday afternoon, having been cancelled from work also Monday night, I figured, you had another break (of sorts :dunno: ), finish up that great yard work, and get that between the cracks stuff in the driveway and in the old above ground pool base in the back yard. So, a little while before...

having been cancelled from work once again, lit at 0039 hours was a Dominican Montecristo. I'm not sure if this was the regular line, as they have a tendency to put the same band on more than one type of cigar in their line, but it very well could have been the regular line Montecristo...

before I began to sip my two shots of Basil Hayden bourbon, a fine, light bourbon, just right for a 70 degree late summer night with puffy white clouds. A Romeo Y Julieta Edicion Limitada, approximately 7.5x48 in size, and a cigar I believe I have aged for at least two and a half years...

Appearance and Construction: 15/15 Appearance: A rich and oily, dark brown wrapper with an intense, solid, very dense feel. Construction: Solid all around construction with a triple cap and an even burn the entire way down. A slow but beautiful draw. Flavor and Body...

This was a pretty big cigar, sent by a friend, that I've been avoiding for some time. Resting in Desk Top II for quite a while, it's been rather scary, so every time I want to smoke a cigar, it's been bypassed, up until tonight. It measured 5 13/16 x 58. I'm sure it was originally supposed to...

Romeo and Julieta Celestiales Finos Ring gauge 46 - Cigar Length 5.2 inches Picked this up from a box pass. Wrapper was a milk chocolate color. The unlit aroma was a little on the sweet side. The cigar was in a box pass, so it had some minor defects, but nothing that would potentially...

On the top row of Desk Top III, reading at 71% humidity, despite the sudden dry, cool air that has moved in to the Northeast this weekend. I chose a 7x48 Juan Y Ramon :dunno: , light Connecticut shade wrapped cigar, that said nothing on the band except the usual; Republican Dominicana, Hecho...

The package arrived, as I opened it, the smell of fresh lacquer permeated my sinus. Oh great, can't wait to taste paint. I continued. Each 7X46 cigar was wrapped in cellophane and cedar. Upon liberating the specimen from its plastic by-porduct sheath, not a hint of the lacquer scent was...

in front of the 58th Street location of my favorite coffee shop, Oren's. I pulled a Ramon Allones with a brown and white band, about a Churchill size, out of my Havana Pocket Humidor and watched the world go by, sipped my coffee and waited for a freelance client to bring me some work for my...
