“Everyday Smoke”
After my last Gurkha Review, which was unfortunately poor, I’m pleased to announce a winner! The Black Puro was velvety smooth with a hint of spicinesses through the nose and on the tongue. I had remembered them as being a little more full bodied but this particular stick was a perfect [...]
I have yet to go to Cigar International’s Cigar Fest, but I think I just might have to this year! The event looks epic and it’s only available to CI customers. If you aren’t one, I highly recommend buying something and getting on their mailing list! I’m pretty sure you can just register [...]
“Evening Smoke”
I have had 6 or so of these Cienfuegos lurking in the depths of my Humidor for 3 months or so. I figured for variety’s sake I would break one out. The result of this experiment was remembering why they were lurking in the depths of my Humidor in the first place! [...]
“Evening Smoke”
The Padilla Obsidian was a perfect match with a cup of hot black coffee and a nice cool day. It was well constructed. However, it was a little light-feeling for such a dark large cigar. The end cap was well formed and cut nicely; the body was rugged. The [...]
In browsing the net looking for cigar information I happened to discover a friend in the industry: “Cigar Jack“. He has a bunch of good reviews and knows his stuff. He seems to be the only other guy out there doing even remotely what we’re trying to do here so pay him some [...]

“Everyday Smoke”
In preliminary inspection of the 5 Vegas Gold I noticed a few key points. The cigar felt good between the fingers, slightly spongy while remaining solid. The wrapper however was rather large veins in the tobacco leaf and some slight inconsistency. The end cap was formed well and cut easily, the [...]
Despite a poor review I would place this cigar in the “Evening Smoke” category.Well it’s raining here in San Diego so I took the opportunity to review one of my favorite brands Gurkha. Usually I love everything about each Gurkha I smoke. Today on the other hand turned into more of a wrestling [...]
“Evening Smoke”
I had the pleasure of sitting down at one of my favorite coffee shops this afternoon to enjoy a little Coffee and Cigar break with one of my good friends. It was a slightly cool day in La Mesa but I braved the 65° January weather to enjoy this tasty smoke . [...]
