The Humidity Cigars Subscription Pack

I’ve been seeing a lot of talk about monthly subscription services, and they seem like a great idea for the right consumer. Heck, they might even be good for someone like me who gets preconceived notions about what I might like or not like based on the blend, appearance, or even the bands or packaging. I know, it’s wrong, but it’s a reality isn’t it? You do smoke with your eyes first, after all, it’s part of the overall experience. That being said, I’ve never committed to a monthly subscription service, I know there are good ones out there, but I’ve always had a large enough stockpile of cigars here in the past and always seemed to have a steady flow of new cigars to try. That is until recently. I don’t know that I want to commit monthly, but I don’t mind putting up a given dollar amount now and then and having someone send me some cigars of their choosing, this model would appealed to me. Anyway, the folks at Humidity Cigars contacted me and sent me one of their monthly kits, and I’ve subsequently placed an order for another one.… Continue reading »

Fathers Day, a Diamond Crown and Various Cigar Stuff

I didn’t smoke any new cigars this week, so this will be pretty short and sweet (every time I say that I end up running on or a few paragraphs!). I have to work today too, and I’m up early writing. It was another busy news week. I skipped a few items that I thought were less interesting, I doubt many of you are really that interested in Scandinavian Tobacco Group looking for a new president for General Cigar since Régis Broersma is leaving that post. I figure if you’re in line for that job you aren’t relying on this site to hear that news. Also Drew Estate had a few that I skipped over, One about Acid and Tabak Frenchies, which are cigarillos, which I care little about, and another about 60 ring Tabak Espeicales with I should have posted but I had already had a few news items that day and couldn’t fit it in. I actually would smoke a 60 ring Tabak Especiale. Another one I missed was the announcement of the Protocol Official Misconduct Corona Gorda. Cubariqueño has a history of following their releases with a corona gorda line extension, so this is no surprise. I actually posted the announcement in April, so I figured another post would be redundant. Plenty of other sites had the news, I’m sure. Anyway, I can only do so much, and, regrettably, it seems that every year at IPCPR time when all this news comes out I get some unsubscribes from the mailing list. Sorry for the barrage of e-mails. I guess I can see if I can adjust the e-mails to twice a week or something.  … Continue reading »
