This review is to compliment the review my fellow Cigar Sage published on the Liga Privada No. 9. There’s an ongoing debate between us as to which one is better. As Connor already stated, there is no correct answer to that. It’s subjective, as is your opinion on every cigar you smoke. There are so…
Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness
Every year on July 4th, for the last 7 years, my father and I have smoked a Camacho Liberty. The name alone is perfectly fitting, and each year is a different blend so it keeps things interesting. Now since these cigars are typically released after the Fourth, we usually smoke last years with just about…
theós tis fotiás/God of Fire
The year is 2011, and the annual IPCPR Trade Show reveals a new Arturo Fuente that any cigar fanatic like myself would go crazy for, the God of Fire Serie B. Released in 2 sizes(Vitolas) and in 2 different wrappers this cigar offers a whole new take on the already successful God of Fire lines.…
Jaime Garcia Reserva Especial
Jaime Garcia, son of Don (Jose) Pepin Garcia, is the mastermind behind this and the My Father cigars. For this cigar he utilized, a Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper, Ecuadorian binder, and various Nicaraguan fillers. Unlike some of his others, or his fathers for that matter, the Reserva didn’t have that distinctive pepper note. Just a hint…
Tennessee Waltz: A True Southern Belle

This 5 1/2 x 52 stick with Connecticut broadleaf wrapper and Nicaragua fillers packs a flavor profile of sweet hickory note, an underlying leather, and earth throughout the duration of…
Neya Classic with a Twist

L’atelier La Mission
Sometime in early February I caught wind of a new cigar coming about by L’Atelier, a company I(admittedly) was never thrilled by. That’s not to say that I haven’t liked any of their previous cigars, just that none of them that I had tried had ever really knocked it out of the park. It’s safe…
Davidoff Nicaragua Box-Pressed
The new Davidoff Nicaragua Box-Pressed Scheduled to be released later this month, I was lucky enough to get to try one of these already. It did not disappoint. For your typical Fuller Bodied cigar smoker Davidoff really only had two options, the Millenium blend, and the original Nicaragua, maybe the Escurio if you want to…
