Grumpy from Tulsa, OK reviewed the REMINGTON FILTERED CIGARS 3-FER NATURAL FILTERED FULL CHOCOLATE

This is a great, tasty, quick smoke, I get less problems at the bar VS my usual larger, more expensive home cigars. When someone asks for a smoke, these are much easier to give away than my Camachos! All in all, a tremendous bang for the buck! I do feel however, there is way too much filter on these babies.

Kraut from Pittsburgh Area reviewed the DAVIDOFF TUBOS SAMPLER CONNECTICUT SAMPLER

There's no need to reiterate the Davidoff legend for quality; this small package affirms that it's all true. The packaging is Patrician, understated, and does justice to protecting the integrity and humidity of the cigars inside. With only three in the sampler it leaves one craving for more, on the other hand, it is a nice teaser for new smoker and gormet alike. The small cigar is perfect for a cigarette break with friends, the panatella is extraordinarily easy drawing, and the Davidoff Special is, well, "special".

New Baby in the Family? Time to Hand out the Cigars!

Tuesday, November 15, 2011 by Pat The Cigar Guy
We have all seen it happen on film and some of us have been fortunate to experience it. The nurse or doctor comes out of the maternity ward and tells the expectant father the sex of his IT'S A GIRL CHURCHILL CONNECTICUT CIGARSnewborn baby. He yells, "It's a girl!" or "It's a boy!" and starts handing out cigars to everyone in the immediate vicinity. It's a fantastic tradition because what better way to celebrate the announcement of a new addition to the family than with quality smokes? Although it used to be more common in the past, believe it or not, this tradition is still followed by a lot of aficionados.

Keep it alive by getting personalized cigars and handing them out at the birth of your daughter, son, or grandchildren. While the impact seems bigger at the place of announcement, you can hand out those cigars no matter where you are. Since smoking is prohibited in hospitals, it it will be better to hand out the cigars elsewhere in any case. This is because they should be smoked and enjoyed right after receiving them to cherish and celebrate the moment.

Buy cigars that say, "It's a girl!" and "It's a boy!" from the best online cigar store and be prepared to carry on the tradition of handing out cigars at the birth of a new child.

Jake from New Hope, PA reviewed the SMOKIN 66 14 WHEELER NATURAL TORO

Surprisingly satisfying cigar with great draw that builds an impressive ash. Very mild..but not to the point of blandness. Generally like big ring cigars (La Gloria Cubana Serie R #6 and 7, Banker and CAO Black) and found this one in the same ball park, though on the milder side. Suggest a slice cut vs bullet hole due to ring size. Good value for the buck.

The Difference Between Cigarillos and Cigars

Wednesday, October 26, 2011 by Pat The Cigar Guy
ASHTON CLASSIC 898 CONNECTICUT LONSDALEAs with many fine things in life, cigar terminology is varied and sometimes confusing. A lot of new cigar aficionados (and some who have been tasting fine smokes for years) wonder if there is any real difference between a "cigarillo" and a "cigar". I hope that the following information will make things a bit more clear about these two types of smokes:
  • Size: This is probably the most obvious difference between cigarillos and cigars. In Spanish, "cigarillo" essentially means "small cigar" and this is basically what a cigarillo is. It's smaller and narrower than a cigar but still has tobacco filler and a leaf wrapper.
  • Taste: This is more or less a non-issue because just as different brands of cigars differ in taste, the flavors of cigarillos also vary. Differences in taste are more related to the brand than whether the smoke is a cigar or cigarillo.
  • Machine made: Many cigarillos are manufactured with machines rather than being wrapped by hand. This is one of the biggest differences between the two and tends to lower the cost of cigarillos.
  • Smoking time: Due to their smaller size, cigarillos can be smoked in much less time than a cigar. This makes them handy for aficionados in search of a brief cigar smoking experience.
Test for any differences between these two types of smokes by ordering them from online cigar stores.

Buried among the eclectic mom-and-pop shops of Miami's famed Calle Ocho, Rolando Reyes maintains a tiny cigar factory staffed by his four most trusted Cuban rollers. Their sole charge is manufacturing Cuba Aliados Miami Edition, a full-bodied cigar with spicy Nicaraguan long-fillers and a full flavored Habano wrapper. Rolando Reyes had no choice but to limit the production of these stellar smokes to a fraction of their demand (after all, four rollers can only produce so much) but, luckily for you, we at Thompson were fortunate enough to receive a few boxes. Cuba Aliados Miami Edition is available in three sizes – Robusto (5" x 50), Toro Viejo (6" x 53), or Valentino (7" x 49) – and come packaged in 20 count boxes or money saving five packs.

Macanudo, the cigar every manufacturer seeks to emulate for quality and consistency, remains on the cutting edge with the introduction of a new Robust. Initially introduced in 1998, the original Macanudo Robust addressed consumer taste preferences at that time. Now with increasing sophistication among smokers whose preferences are for a more full-bodied cigar with increased flavor, Macanudo is kicking up the flavor quotient, making a good cigar an even better, more authoritative one. Crafted by master blender Daniel Nuñez, the new Macanudo Robust is a blend constructed with a dark chocolaty Connecticut Shade wrapper. To this superior leaf, Nuñez adds a sweet Connecticut Broadleaf binder with a cosmopolitan blend of Dominican, Honduran, and Nicaraguan long fillers producing a richer, bolder smoke than in its previous incarnation. For an added touch of distinction, the Macanudo Robust is square pressed; making it one of the handsomest cigars we’ve seen.

Introducing the Empress of Dominican Republic

Tuesday, February 8, 2011 by Trevor Billingsley
I just got my first batch of Empress of Dominican Republic cigars, and there's a 100% chance I will be ordering more. There are a lot of reasons, starting with the fact that it's a hand-rolled Dominican cigars with a Habano wrapper that right now is on sale for $39.95 for a bundle of 16, but there is one more superficial reason.Empress of Dominican Republic

The ash is awesome.

Call me superficial, but I love cigars where the ash hangs there until even casual passers-by are wondering how it is defying gravity. If you're the same way, this is your kind of cigar.

On a windy day a couple of nights ago, the ash still held to the end of these babies as though there were hidden magnets involved (which, as near as I can taste, there are not). I can only imagine what it is like when the weather is calm and I don't accidentally knock it off with a sudden gesture. It's a smooth smoke and enjoyable on its merits to be sure, but that's not why I can feel people staring at me when I smoke it. I know everyone wants to make sure not to miss the sight when the ash finally falls.

Given another bundle of these, I'm going to set myself a challenge: Can I make it through a whole cigar without losing any of the ash. Most experts, and all physicists, would say that's impossible. But based on my experienced with the Empress of Dominican Republic cigars so far, I'm not so sure, and at any rate I'll have a lot of fun trying.
