Friday evening I attended an event, sort of. Goose’s Montecristo Lounge in Limerick, PA hosted the Altadis USA Know Your Wrapper Series event, both in their lounge and virtually. They probably had 15 or so people there in the lounge, which is spacious, no worries there, and a few of us attending virtually.… Continue reading

Trinidad Espiritu No.2 Toro Cigar
I was out over the weekend looking for some specific cigars and couldn’t find them, so, being me and all, I couldn’t walk out of a cigar shop empty handed, so one of the cigars I picked up that was new to me was the Trinidad Espiritu No.2 in the Toro size. They had the Magnum and Robusto as well, but I like Toros, so that’s what I got! I’ll admit, there aren’t a great many cigars in the Altadis portfolio that I get excited about, but I’ve found in the last few years, the cigars that have been made in collaboration with A.J.

News: Blackbird Cigar Co and Stogiebird Hatch New Blend
If ever there was a perfect partnership, it’s Blackbird and Stogiebird! It just makes sense! Of course, I’ve known Sam Leccia of Stogiebird for many years, and I met Jonas of Blackbird last year at the TPE. I’m looking forward to this becoming available, I’m almost tempted to subscribe, as subscription services have been on my radar lately. The problem is, I just can’t spend the cash to subscribe to all of the services I’d like to! Sam seem to be doing it right, as he always has! I have a small collection of cigars he’s had his hand in over the years, and I can’t wait to add this one!
Today, Blackbird Cigar Co announces the creation of their latest cigar the “Ruffed Grouse” made exclusively for Stogiebird. The Ruffed Grouse, named after the Pennsylvania State bird, is a four-country blend starting with a beautiful oily Habano wrapper around an Indonesia binder using grade A Criollo 98 and Pennsylvania long filler tobaccos.… Continue reading
