Anthony's Cigar Emporium

An easy week makes for an easy Wednesday smoke so the Villiger Cuellar Connecticut Kreme is the easy choice!

This week’s been pretty smooth so far so I reached for the easy choice – the Villiger Cuellar Connecticut Kreme. Coming from a private farm these smokes creamy, wood notes compliment a natural sweetness throughout. There’s a delightful pepper and spice throughout, but true to it’s name, creamy, smoothness and subtlety – a perfect Wednesday stick to smoke by yourself enjoying the privacy of your own backyard, hands down.

Wanting a wonderful Wednesday pairing, I grabbed a Villiger Cuellar Connecticut Kreme and my favorite beer!

Arturo Fuente Don Carlos the Man and Legend Humidor

Arturo Fuente DON CARLOS THE MAN & THE LEGEND (2 boxes of 20 cigars each & humidor)

Anthony’s Cigar Emporium has two full sets of The Legend Humidors and 40 The Man cigars, plus it is making available the The Legend Humidor separately and the Don Carlos The Man cigar in singles and in boxes!

The Legend Humidor measures 15 inches wide by 8 1/8 tall and 10 3/4 inches deep. Fuente advertises the humidor as being capable of holding up to 150 cigars. Like most large desktop humidors, it includes a tray that allows for separation within the main storage area. But that’s not all; on the back lower side of the humidor, there’s a separate compartment. It’s opened by pressing a button that is a copy of Fuente Sr.’s fingerprint. Firmly press the fingerprint — or really anywhere on the bottom tray — and a drawer pops open!

Don Carlos The Man is an extremely rare Fuente cigar that were only available for purchase (2 boxes of 20) in conjuction with each The Legend Humidor. This limited production cigar was based on the original Don Carlos blended by Carlos Sr., but with some modifications made by the younger “Carlito” Fuente. He’s also stated that the fillers come from the company’s Chateau de la Fuente farms in the Dominican Republic.

Decided to ditch the after dinner digestif and dive directly into this Davidoff Anniversario Special R!

Following up an excellent dinner, tonight I reached for one of the bests – Davidoff Anniversario Special R. These are the obvious reasons I chose this smoke: seamless wrappers, perfect burn, easy draw, relentless consistency, balanced flavor! The Ecuadorian Connecticut-seed wrapper offers a light, crisp taste with a rich tobacco flavor – a ideal after dinner stick for anyone wanting to round out their dinner experience with class.

Wanted a cigar to really celebrate a great week – went with a My Father Flor de las Antillas Lancero TAA 2018 cigar!

What made me choose this stick was that the My Father Flor de las Antillas Lancero TAA 2018 stick is the same blend as the Cigar Aficionado’s #1 Cigar of the Year for 2012 with a stratospheric 96 rating, making it a Classic! The FdlA Lancero 2018 TAA is packaged in opulant 20 ct. boxes. These are a
tribute to Cuba with their select Nicaraguan Cuban-seed tobaccos, and exquisite Nicaraguan sun-grown wrapper leaf. These medium-bodied puros are ultra smooth, offering a creamy combo of perfectly-balanced flavors. – a perfect, celebratory stick for lancero lovers everywhere!
