Partagas, Macanudo and El Rey Del Mundo Cigars

We have a General Cigar Company centric post today.  General Cigar is kind enough to send me samples of their new stuff from time to time, the curious thing about all these new releases is that I rarely see them on retailers shelves for some reason.  Now, I don’t get out much, and my sample size is pretty small, but it doesn’t seem like a lot of these get a lot of traction.… Continue reading »
