Yes, Fox cigars advertises on this site, but I purchased the Twisted Tasting Kit from them unsolicited, kinda for five reasons. I really like the Araposa Negra, and never mind having one more in the humidor (I’m smoking one now as I type!), and I was quite curious to try the other four cigars. I started with the Araposa Blanca, a Fox exclusive made by Black Label Trading Co..… Continue reading

Oracle Toro Cigar a Cigars.com Exclusive
I was talking with some folks representing Cigars.com (and JR.com, but we’ll keep the focus on Cigars.com for this exercise), and they suggested I try out their Oracle brand of cigars.

News: Joya de Nicaragua Presents Selección Antaño
Another new item from Joya de Nicaragua! They will be attending the PCA show next month, after a few years absence. They used to display in the Drew Estate booth, since DE decided not to attend, JdN followed suit. It’s a shame, really, they are a separate company, distributed in the US by Drew Estate, they had no reason not to be at the show. Anyway, Antańo is among my favorites, this is a nice sampler.
In 2001, Joya de Nicaragua launched Antaño 1970, a Nicaraguan puro that demonstrated the strong character and essence of Nicaraguan tobaccos and quickly gained acclaim as one of the boldest cigars on the market.… Continue reading
