Stillwell Star Aromatic No. 1 and English No. 27 Cigars

I wanted to get through all four, but stuff came up and I didn’t have time to get the other two in.  I will smoke the Bayou No. 32 and Navy No. 1056 this week and write about them in a separate post.

The company was good though!… Continue reading »

Casa Cuevas Patrimonio Robusto Cigar and a Contest!

Two months ago I posted about the Casa Cuevas Patrimonio shipping to stores, and Gabriel Piñeres,  who does the PR for Cuevas, and has been a great friend for many years, was kind enough to send me a couple of them a few weeks ago. When I posted the news item I threatened to buy some, and I plan to make good on that threat, especially after smoking these (and I’m smoking one as I type).… Continue reading »
