Gurkha Cellar Reserve 15 yr Kraken Review »

Gurkha Cellar Reserve 15 yr Kraken Review A Gurkha review! This is a first, I have heard mixed opinions about this cigar. In the end cigars should always be tried to see if it does fit an individual. So I am going to approach this blend with an open mind. With that I do have […]

Curivari Buenaventura Petit BV Review »

Curivari Buenaventura Petit BV Review It has been a while since I visited a Curivari blend, this particular review will cover a cigar that I have reviewed in a different vitola. These tend to be pretty good, but they do stick to pretty similar notes throughout the brands releases. That is not a bad thing, they […]

Illusione 2014 Singulare Review »

Illusione 2014 Singulare Review This is another cigar from Illusione that I will be going over, these cigars are produced at a significantly small quantity. Illusione has does a limited release “almost” every year. I say almost because the 2015 just recently shipped out at the end of March 2016. I don’t have any real […]

El Centurion 2016 TAA Review »

El Centurion 2016 TAA Review This is a new release from My Father, this 2016 TAA is a box pressed torpedo coming in at 6 1/2 by 52. A couple of months ago I conducted a review on the corona size of the H-2K-CT, I am expecting something similar here. However, being a TAA cigar, these […]

Special: E.P. Carillo EL 2013 Review »

E.P. Carillo EL 2013 Review If you click on the picture it will take you to the webpage where the discounts are applied. This review is actually something I am really looking forward to. As I was walking through the humidor I saw a box of these, and they looked like they were aging wonderfully. I recall when […]

Oliva V Melanio Robusto Review »

Oliva V Melanio Robusto Review I previously reviewed another size of this cigar, however in my personal opinion this is the best size that they put out. The only thing that would contend with this Oliva V Melanio Robusto Review would be if the company did a lancero label Melanio. Wishful thinking, but in either […]

My Father Connecticut Corona Gorda Review »

My Father Connecticut Corona Gorda Review This is a revisit to the My Father Connecticut, however this size does the cigar better justice in my opinion. The smaller ring gauge gives the wrapper a larger influence upon the profile. Exactly what it will do to the profile is the point of this review. So on […]

Ashton Cabinet No 6 Robusto Review »

Ashton Cabinet No 6 Robusto Review Ashton is another well know brand, the fuller bodied offerings like the ESG and VSG are spectacular. This is the Cabinet line which is much lower in body. The key here is to find if, as a mild cigar, it provides a smooth, soft, and stable experience. With that […]

Tatuaje Verocu No 4 Robusto Review »

Tatuaje Verocu No 4 Robusto Review I previously conducted a review on a larger vitola in this line. It was a bold offering from Tatuaje, nice strength and mouth feel. It will be interesting to see if there are any significant changes in the sizes. I am very happy that the company expanded the line […]

Camacho Barrel Aged Robusto Review »

Camacho Barrel Aged Robusto Review As a general company, some of the older offerings were outstanding from Camacho. Recently, the more popular blend has been the Corojo of the newer releases. This is not “new,” it has been around for several months, but it is something that should be tried. Barrel aged refers to bourbon […]
