If you’re on this page, you’ve likely decided that you want cigars at your next corporate event but aren’t sure which cigars to choose. You’ve got a budget, and you want to make sure that whatever cigars you choose will impress attendees, offer real quality, and not push you over budget. Most of all, you […]
Up for review today is the Oliva Serie V Melanio Figurado. You probably know this as the cigar that won Cigar Aficionado’s #1 Cigar of 2014 with a rating of 96 and some very high praise. The cigar is familiar to me for this reason, but also because Oliva was one of the first brands […]
Up for review today is Debonaire House Daybreak. Daybreak is the third line in Debonaire House’s portfolio after the Habano and Maduro lines. Apparently, the idea behind the three lines is for the cigar smoker to have a Debonaire for each part of the day: morning, afternoon, and evening. As you’ll read in this review, […]

This cigar in particular has received high praise from respected reviewers, so I’m excited to take it for a test drive. On […]
Up for review today is a special smoke from Arturo Fuente, the Don Carlos Edicion de Aniversario 2013. The standard Don Carlos line has long been revered as one of the company’s greatest cigars, so it’s no surprise that I’m excited to put a limited edition Don Carlos to the test. At $30, it’s a pricey […]
Up for review today is the Davidoff Aniversario Special T. Given this cigar is from Davidoff I’m excited almost by default. But the Special T is, well, special, partially because of it’s unique pyramid shape. The slowly narrowing format practically guarantees an interesting, dynamic smoke experience. With that background out of the way, let’s get […]
