Cigars from Nestor Miranda, Joya de Nicaragua, Dunbarton Tobacco & Trust and Foundation

I ended up smoking some pretty great cigars over the last few days!  I started off with the Nestor Miranda Grand Reserve 2024. I have memory of smoking the 2011 and 2012 versions, which were the only other two previously released. The 2024 was released in celebration of Miami Cigar and Company’s 35th anniversary. … Continue reading »

Red Meat Lovers Battleship New Jersey Meat and Cigars Event

of the box I bought in June of 2000. An old friend sent me the better part of a box earlier this year so I could continue the tradition, after taking last year off. … Continue reading »

The rest will have to wait! Monday I smoked a Sin Compromiso with a Broadleaf wrapper that I got at the Famous Smokeshop event I attended a few months back. I decided on this
cigar on Monday for a few reasons. First, 2 Guys Cigars released the second (and probably last) round of the Mi Querida Firecrackers for sale. These are great little cigars. The second reason was to celebrate Saka’s birthday, because he doesn’t celebrate it himself. He’s told me that he thinks celebrating birthdays is for ten year old girls, which explains the pink wrapping paper with the stuffed My Little Kitty on the present he gave me for my 50th birthday years ago. For the record, I have two years on him.… 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. They were hosting the Sunday Funday with Steve Saka, which featured an afternoon of Jamison Irish Whiskey, three Dunbarton Tobacco and Trust cigars, and three gourmet donuts.  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 »
