This is going to be a relatively short post today, and a little different than the usual Sunday post. Friday evening we went up to The Leaf/Famous Smoke Shop in Easton, PA for a cigar. They were launching two new sizes in their Dunbarton Famous 80th line, a Corona Larga and a Gordo. … Continue reading

Cross your fingers.… Continue reading
Sunday, March 31, I attended an event at Famous Smokeshop’s Easton PA. location, where they have their retail store and the Leaf Cigar Bar.

I managed to get Steve out of his shell for a few minutes, you know how shy he is…so I hope you enjoy listening to this episode.… Continue reading
Spring is upon us finally, although we got through this winter relatively easily. I always look forward to warmer weather! This week I enjoyed a few cigars I really love, the Umbagog Toro Toro, and the E.P. Carillo Seleccion Oscuro Especial No. 6, both 6″ x 52 parejos that’s my preferred size, and both maduros, with the former being Connecticut broadleaf and the latter being Mexican San Andrés Negro.

I love them both, and never have regrets when I light either one up. They are two cigars I could see having in a rotation (of about 20) if I were to hang up my blog hat and settle into some normal semblance of cigar consumerism. As it is, I like to enjoy one of these every now and again, they are both so good.… Continue reading
