Brickhouse Traveler Tubo Review I would classify this as a fairly consistent and enjoyable “yardgar,” but then again this is a vitola of the Brickhouse that I have yet to have. This main difference with this release is the Tubo. The only real way to see if there is a quality or complexity increase would […]

Montecristo No 2 Vintage Belicoso Review This is the General Cigars production of the originally cuban Montecristo brand. I feel the need to express that information. So as a separate entity, this brand operates by using alternative tobaccos then the original company uses. This is a limited run by the company advertised as a “Vintage […]

Avo Nicaragua Syncro Toro Review Several weeks ago I reviewed the Avo Nicaragua in Robusto. This will be a comparison of the cigar across vitolas. I don’t expect many large differences. My main concern is that the Robusto was very balanced, in that I feel that a larger vitola might dilute the blend. Lets see […]

Arturo Fuente Anejo No. 8-8-8 Review My last Fuente review went all right, but left me wanting more from the company. This is a special release labeled Xtra Viejo. It’s a very unique size, coming in at 6 and 5/8 by 44. Not thin enough to be considered a lancero, but too long to be […]

Avo 90th Classic Covers Volume 3 Review Avo has done some great cigars, I am really looking forward to this blend, but with that I have some pretty high expectations. I couldn’t list all of the cigars that I consider a success by this company. My only question is why these cigars aren’t as widely […]

Davidoff Box Pressed Nicaragua Toro Review It’s time for another Davidoff Review! I recently did another vitola of the Davidoff Nicaragua. This is a box pressed toro size of the same line and it will be interesting to see how that changes the profile. Let’s see how it performs with a Davidoff Box Pressed Nicaragua […]

Caldwell Eastern Standard Cake Walk Review The construction of Caldwell cigars is impeccable. Not even getting into the description of this cigar, any time I think of this brand now, that is my initial thought. I have produced a lot of reviews for this company’s cigars and they have done a great job with their […]

Arturo Fuente Don Carlos Belicoso Review This will be the first review conducted on something from Arturo Fuente. This is a popular cigar for the occasional cigar smoker. Or a friend that recognizes it when they walk into a small cigar shop. I have had mixed experiences with these cigars in the past, not this […]

Pardon 1964 Anniversary Natural Review This is a step up from the thousand series that Padron produces, and the price point reflects that. But in terms of the company’s cigars, this is still one of the more budget friendly lines. This has been a cigar I have visited in the past and it has performed […]

La Aroma De Cuba Noblesse Review Produced by Ashton, this cigar is a limited run of 3,000 boxes of 24. So naturally this is a “must smoke before it’s gone,” but lets see what characteristics the cigar has to offer and see if it justifies the price point. Knowing Ashton I have high expectations. Maybe […]
