Lost & Found International Date Line Review Second up in the exploration of Lost and Found cigars this week, a Lost & Found International Date Line Review. As far as entertaining packaging goes this is the least impressive. However, that makes me think that the company believe the cigar speaks for itself. Lets see if that […]

Lost & Found Panda Welfare Review Packaged in a take-out box, and then wrapped in paper that looks like last weeks dinner? Creative packaging as usual with the lost and found, the cigar itself is the real focus though. 4 by 50 this is a shorter smoke but it feels pretty dense. This is sold […]

Diamond Crown Julius Caesar Review 2 The last time I visited this cigar was at the start of February, I don’t expect many differences but lets see what happens. The previous score this cigar received from me was an 84. I would like to see it perform better but the only way to see if […]

Ashton Symmetry Prism Review Ashton cigars are a sign of prestige, whether you want to admit it or not. There is a bit of class associated with going to a cigar bar and smoking a VSG, ESG, Cabinet, but this is a cigar that is newer to the company. In this Ashton Symmetry Prism Review, keep […]

Caldwell Eastern Standard Maduro Review Caldwell, every time I think of this brand I now think perfect construction. That’s probably not a good thing for the sake of reviews I conduct on their cigars because it means I am immediately holding their cigars to a higher standard. But I believe my expectations are justified given […]

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 […]
