This week I found myself out and about more than usual! Monday I met up with my friend Stephen Tabak from Tampa at the Cigar Mojo location nearest to me. I stopped into the Cigar Mojo original location on Thursday for their Fuente event, then was back at The Grove location Friday for a 1502 event. That’s enough running around for me for this month! … Continue reading

Lampert Cigars 1675 Series and an Alec Bradley Fine and Rare
Last week I talked about the Dominican and Costa Rican Lampert cigars, this week I smoked their Nicaraguan selections. All three of these are made at the AgroIndustrial Nicaraguense de Tabacos S.A. in Condega, Nicaragua, which is owned by the Ortiz family of Omar and Indiana Ortiz fame. We have been hearing about Indiana Ortiz for a few years, She did some work with the Psycho Seven folks when they were around, and was then doing some things with Mombacho. Fingers crossed for Lampert Cigars!… Continue reading

Aragón, Krakatoa, and Ozgener Cigars
It was another weird week for me at the day job, but that’s another story. I also finally smoked some of the Aganorsa Connoisseur Club Over-runs from 2021 that Trash Panda had that had finally dried out enough to smoke, and they were really quite good, but, sadly, are now sold out, so I’m not even going to mention them.… Continue reading
Trash Panda Connoisseur Club Over-Runs, All Saints and Micallef Cigars
I had a little different idea about how this week’s smoking was going to go. I got one each of the Connoisseur Club Over-Runs from TrashPanda, which are on sale for a ridiculously low price, by the way. These came with the caveat that they needed to be dryboxwd, as they had been sealed in the humidibags for several years. I opened them out and left them on the desk for a week (I think the house has been around 52% RH this week) thinking they would dry down sufficiently.… Continue reading
