Rocky Patel-The Edge Lite
While searching for a morning cigar in the humidor, I came across today’s review. This cigar has been buried in my humidor for at least two years. I haven’t smoked one of these in awhile, so I stuck with water instead of coffee for this mornings review of The Rocky Patel Edge Lite. Wrapper: Ecuadorian Connecticut Binder: [...]

Corona Cobras
While browsing the Corona Cigar Company in Orlando one day, I came across the cigar up for review today. It looks like it is exclusive to Corona. A standard culebra cigar is basically 3 cigars woven together. They are then taken apart and smoked individually. A quick story about culebra cigars… Apparently back in the [...]

Breaking through Customs in Havana
Cuban customs really gets to me. It's not that the agents at Jose Martí Airport in La Habana are particularly unpleasant, or even aggressive, but they make me nervous.
