This may not be as wordy as usual, for some reason I cant seem to think of a lot to say about the three cigars I smoked for this week’s blog post. Let’s just jump right in to the first one. General Cigar Co. is very generous with samples, something I appreciate very much. I’ve had a good relationship with them since 2010, although there’s only a few people left there that I know anymore.… Continue reading

I don’t smoke a lot of Crowned Heads cigars, I like Miguel there a lot, and do actually like a lot of their cigars.

Their website mentions that the cigars are chemical free, something which I questioned. … Continue reading
I know, I’m behind on some of the new releases, it’s been a weird year. Last month Harrisburg Beer and Cigars/BL Luxuries released a shop exclusive by Dunbarton Tobacco & Trust, the Kahn Alam. I didn’t want to spring for a box, and probably would have been too late anyway. I’m a cheap bastid, Saka knows this. There was a sampler available from BL Luxuries which included one of the Kahn Alam, and it also had a Sobremesa Solita Red, and a Red Meat Lovers Fritanga, which were on my list of new cigars to try. … Continue reading
