This is another one of those Limited Edition dealies from Viaje. It’s an odd shape really, closed at both ends. I cut the foot a little before I light it. First few puffs and it reminds me some of the Skull & Bones blend, but it seems to not have as much punch. More after [...]

This cigar is only available at Smoke Inn stores in Florida. Special thanks to Abe and company for the opportunity to try this HTF cigar. This looks like your standard Padron 64 except with a huge 60 ring gauge. The prelight draw is super easy and after it’s lit, I’m gifted with copious amounts of [...]

As some of you know, I’m not a huge “Fuente Fan”, but I have always had a soft spot for their Rosado wrappers. The 858 Rosado is probably one of my favorite cigars of all time (seriously). So when I heard these were soming out at the end of last year I was very excited. [...]

Size: 7 1/2″ x 40 Vitola: Long Panetela (Lancero) Wrapper: Candela Cafe Colorado Origin: Nicaragua, Raices Cubanas factory Age: Right of the truck! I’ve been excited about this short-run release for quite some time. For me the most challenging wrapper to use and actually make an interesting cigar is the Candela wrapper. Most candelas I [...]
