Tabacos Baez Serie SF
Welcome to my Black Friday review of a Cheap Ash cigar. The Tabacos Baez Serie SF is a new addition to Tabacos Baez line from Don Pepin Garcia. What makes this cigar different is the fact that it is made up of 70% long filler and 30% short filler. Because of the short filler this cigar is very inexpensive.I was able to acquire these sticks at a local B&M for $3.50, however they can be found even cheaper online. But that’s really no surprise. I really enjoy these cigars. The flavors are enjoyable, and despite the use of short filler tobacco, these cigars hold up very well thought the entire smoking experience. I’d h

First Impressions: Alec Bradley Select Cabinet Reserve
The Seclect Cabinet Reserve (SCR) is a new cigar from Alec Bradley. This cigar features a blend of Honduran and Nicaraguan tobacco. Some of the same elements used in the popular Tempus line were also used in the SCR. This cigar and available in 5 vitolas, and for this review I’ll be smoking the 5.5 x 60 Gran Robusto. The cigar was nicely constructed with an expertly applied triple cap. Although I don’t generally smoke cigars of this size, I was anxious to fire this cigar up considering how much I have enjoyed the Alec Bradley Tempus. Overall I would have to say the SCR was a pleasant smoking experience, however, I look f

Sunday Fiver: November 22, 2009
I recently received an e-mail from Partagas concerning their new Benji Menendez Partagas Master Series Majestuoso.  To kick off the launch of their new Limited Edition cigar, Partagas will be hosting a series of events.  I have provided an excerpt from the email below with all the pertinent information. As a fellow cigar lover, we thought you’d like to hear about a bold, limited edition Partagas blend over 160 years in the making: The Benji Menendez Partagas Master Series Majestuoso. The industry is already buzzing with praise for this limited edition Partagas so we’re throwing a party. We’ve created a small, 5,000 box run of this new cigar, and we’d
