Memories from Big Smoke 2009 (Part 2) by Alex Lukoff
Saturday at The Big Smoke 2009 Saturday morning broke with a crash, as I slowly tried to shake off the hangover caused by too many rum drinks the night before. Totally worth it- it was only a 2-asprin hangover, but I took three to be safe. What to do to kill a few hours in the morning in Vegas? Start drinking ag

Memories from Big Smoke 2009! (Part 1) by Alex Lukoff
Friday Tony and I look forward to the Big Smoke every year. Held in Las Vegas and hosted by the good folks over at Cigar Aficionado, it’s the perfect opportunity to make friends, rub elbows with cigar celebrities, and generally smoke all day, every day. Perfect, right? Well, last year Tony couldn’t make it, so I had to represent. This year, with the business firing on all 5-cylinders (I drive a Jetta), the blog getting a thousand hits a month, and almost 1200 Facebook friends, we knew it would be different than years past. But we had no idea how different! We flew in on Friday, leaving Long Beach, CA via Long Beach Airport on Jet Blue. If you haven

Are Ultra Premium Cigars Worth the Price? by Andrew Picone (guest contributor)
Not quite as taxing as the Rolex versus Timex question, yet perhaps a bit more interesting. When asked, a group of seasoned cigar smoking friends offered a resounding no. Derived from various walks of life, not one of these folks could give a solid reason as to why a single cigar should demand a $25+ price tag. Addressing the issue from a financial perspective, some choose to compare the pay scales of tobacco workers, to a broader guess as to the cost of production. Based on these factors, this group could not justify the cost or determine a value. I believe the answer is a bit deeper.

“The Style vs. Your Style” by Alex Lukoff
There once was a time when the men were men, and women were happy for it. A man would come home from a hard day at work, kiss the wife on the cheek, pat the kids on the head, pour himself 4-fingers of scotch and sit down in his den with a newspaper where he was not to be disturbed. Once adequately sequestered from his family, he would pull out his trusty pipe and pack a bowl. What happened to this vision of married life? No, not the co

“Go Baby Go” by Alex Lukoff
I had a strange Friday last week. A very different couple of obligations were on my plate, and they caused me to reflect back on them over the weekend. Of course, it’s often that we have multiple commitments in a day, what with Blackberrys, iPhones and Microsoft Outlook, our days are more precisely scheduled than ever. But sometimes you have two things to do that are so different, they make you question your worldview. I was asked
