Cohiba Siglo VI (JUL 05)
Posted in Cigar Reviews, Habanos, tagged Cohiba, Cohiba Siglo, Cuba, Habanos on September 9, 2009 | 1 Comment »
Size: 150 x 20.64 mm (5 3/4″ x 52) Vitola: Canonazo (Toro) Wrapper: Havana Origin: The Land of the Lost Age: 4 years 2 months Aaaah, one of my favorite cigars. If only all toro were made this dense and full of flavor! Has 4 years slowed this freight train of flavor down? We shall [...]
Partagas Lusitania (Nov 07) Box Check
Posted in Cigar Reviews, Habanos, tagged Habanos, Partagas, Partagas Lusitania on September 2, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
Size: 194 x 19.45mm (7 5/8″ x 49) Vitola: Prominentes (Double Corona) Wrapper: Habana Origin: Cuba Age: almost 2 years A dress box of Partagas Lusitanias magically appeared in my humidor a while back, and I thought it would be a good idea to check on the box to see how these Lusis were aging, [...]
Partagas Shorts

Size: 4 3/8″ x 42 (110mm x 16.67mm) Vitola: Petite Corona (Minutos) Wrapper: Havana Origin: Cuba Age: ~3 years I love Partagas Shorts. These tiny little flavor bombs always seem to deliver. This came from I box I have been putting away for a few years. This stick is almost three years old, and it [...]
San Cristobal de la Habana El Principe
Posted in Cigar Reviews, Habanos, tagged Habanos, San Cristobal de la Habana on February 23, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
Size: 4 3/8″ x 42 (110mm x 16.67mm) Vitola: Petite Corona (Minutos) Wrapper: Habano Origin: Cuba Age: ~2 years San Cristobal is normally one of my least favorite Habanos lines. I find them to be very salty and lacking in depth and Cuban musky flavor compared to some of my favorite Habanos. This stick came [...]
Diplomaticos No. 5 (MAR 08)
Posted in Cigar Reviews, Habanos, tagged Diplomaticos on October 4, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
Size: 4″ x 40 Vitola: Petite Corona Wrapper: Havana Origin: Cuba This is another size that I have been meaning to try for a while. The Cubans make good little cigars that are often much more tasty than their fatter big brothers. The wrapper is a bit interesting; it is a little darker than your [...]
Jose L. Piedra Brevas (MAR 08)
Posted in Cigar Reviews, Habanos, tagged Jose L. Piedra on September 12, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
Size: 5 1/4” x 42 Vitola: Corona Wrapper: Havana Origin: Cuba This is Cuba’s version of the bundle cigar. NOT known for their consistency, JLPs are super cheap and have mixed filler. Please don’t use this to form an opinion of Cuban cigars. I could barely draw from it, it was so tight. As far as flavor is concerned [...]
Sancho Panza Molinas (MAR 08)
Posted in Cigar Reviews, Habanos, tagged Sancho Panza on September 5, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
Size: 6 1/2″ x 42 Vitola: Lonsdale Wrapper: Havana Origin: Cuba This is a size that I have been meaning to try for a while. I have already tried the Belicosos and the Coronas, but the Molinas is a new size for me. I like Sancho Panzas, I just don’t love them. This one for [...]

Size: 6 5/8″ x 43 Vitola: Lonsdale Wrapper: Habana Origin: Cuba It’s been a while since I wrote a review for one of these cigars… This is one of my favorite Cuban brands and this is one size I have been meaning to smoke for quite some time. I have had tons of petite coronas, [...]
H. Upmann Petite Coronas (Feb 2006)
Posted in Cigar Reviews, Habanos, tagged Cuban Cigar, H. Upmann, Habanos on June 17, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
Size: 5 1/8″ x 42 Vitola: Petite Corona Wrapper: Habana Origin: Cuba The Cubans know how to make a damn good petite corona. Just about all of their marças have a PC in their stable. This cigar was initially punched, but I may have to clip it as the draw is a [...]
