Last week I mentioned buying some cigars from Discount Cigar Warehouse, and I dug into the second sampler this week. This was a selection of 6″ x 56 cigars from Illusione. I actually went into this sampler blind, as there is no information on the website. It seems to be an exclusive to DCW. I smoked two of the four this week, starting with the Illusione Maduro M12 Plan MJ-1949.… Continue reading

A Video Interview with Ricky Rodriguez of West Tampa Tobacco Co.
I’m trying something a little new here. Ricky kind of encouraged this, I’ve been thinking about it for some time. When I talked to him a few weeks ago he asked to do it, and I had to figure out how. I did, and I think it worked out very well. Rick and I talked for 50 minutes about the company, the cigars, the factory and several other topics. Please give it a watch and let me know what you think.… Continue reading
Sampling the Casa Cuevas Core Line Cigars
Somewhere along the way last week I saw a Casa Cuevas post about something, and Dustin Prudhomme of
Discount Cigar Warehouse (not a sponsor) mentioned having a sampler, so I ordered one, along with some other goodies. I’ve found that this is a great place to get cigars quick and at a good value. The sampler had one each of the core line, and a La Mandarria in toro size. I, sadly, don’t find the Casa Cuevas line locally, so I have limited experience, although I have smoked many cigars made by them over the years.… Continue reading
News: New Sizes for the Diesel Disciple
I’ve smoked a lot of Diesels, but I don’t think I’ve smoked the Disciple. The Atonement was really good, and the Esteli Puro is really quite good too. I lied the Crucible quite a bit too. I’m going to go pick out a Diesel to smoke tonight. I’ll be keeping an eye out for this Disciple.
Diesel Disciple will welcome two new sizes as permanent additions to the brand’s growing lineup.
The soon-to-be-released Toro and Torpedo vitolas will mark the second and third sizes in the line and will begin shipping this week.… Continue reading
Toscano, Gurkha, Dos Niños and Cavalier Cigars
I started off this week with something a little different. I had a Toscano Master Aged Serie 3 in the humidor from last year’s PCA show, and I decided it was time to give it a try. I’ve been enjoying Toscano cigars for over 20 years, my wife brought me some from a trip to Italy in 2000 (Anticos), and I’ve been a fan. … Continue reading
