Up for review today is the Davidoff 702 Series Aniversario Special T. It’s a bit of a new take on the classic Davidoff Special T, and augments the blend most significantly with the Ecuadorian Habano 702 wrapper. Anyone reading this site knows I’m a fan of Davidoff, with their cigars winning some of my top […]
Regius Cigars is a UK based company that I admittedly had little experience with. Their initial distribution began in Europe and now they have come to the States. The Regius Exclusivo U.S.A. Pressed Perfecto from Regius is exclusive to the U.S. As I learned each size in the line is blended with that particular vitola in […]
Up for review today is the CAO Nicaragua, a cigar released at IPCPR 2018 that is an extension to CAO’s WORLD series that includes popular cigars like CAO Brazilia, America, and more. I don’t smoke a lot of CAO these days, but the CAO Italia was one of the first cigars to wow me, and one […]
In the second half of the year, a lot of the new 2018 releases finally start becoming available for purchase online, which means over the next couple of months we’ll be reviewing a steadily increasing number of 2018 cigars. This will help us get a lay-of-the-land, and hopefully put together a Top 10 list at […]

Continuing our reviews of cigars released in 2018, today I’ll be reviewing the Macanudo Inspirado Red toro. I’ll be honest, I’ve never been a huge fan of Macanudo. Most of their older, more standard blends are (in my opinion) bland and uninteresting. But it can’t be denied that under the leadership of General Cigar Co., […]
Brand owner Kyle Gellis owner of Warped Cigars collaborated with Max Fernandez of Casa Fernandez to create The Guardian of the Farm. The cigar pays homage to their dogs who live on the farm and “secure” its perimeters. Much more than just a fun attachment to their pets, the Guardian of the Farm is a […]
Up for review today is the Arturo Fuente Don Carlos Personal Reserve, a fairly difficult to find cigar from Fuente. The company created the cigar in 2015 to celebrate the 80th anniversary of the family patriarch. TLDR on this one: it’s a good cigar (though not the best from Fuente). More below.
