Some Boneshaker Cigars from JR Cigars

This post, and the next couple that follow, are something a little bit different for me.  The folks at JR Cigars shared line samplers of three of their Boneshaker brand cigars, and I have been looking forward to trying them.  I started out with the Boneshaker line, what I assume is the original. … Continue reading »

Knuckle Sandwich, Julius Caeser, Postanie and Aganorsa Cigars

I smoked some new stuff from General Cigars this week, both of which necessitated the use of my Adorini punch, which, in my opinion, is the finest punch on the market.  Adorini makes some excellent humidors, I have two and they are rock solid in form and finish.  I’ve had both for around ten years and they require zero maintenance.  I just throw some bovedas in every few months and they are good. … Continue reading »
