Sunday Filler-Stinky Cigar Floor Ashtray

Saturday, August 20th, 2011

Thanks to Stogie411.com, who on August 4th, 2011 had the Stogie Review guys on as guests. During the show, Walt put a question out to the live audience. I never enter cigar site contests, but this was an exception. Considering I have been following Stogie Review since 2007, I knew I would be an instant winner, which I was. The prize was this great Stinky Floor Ashtray you see here. I picked jet black powder coated finish of course.

The contest was sponsored by the East Coast Cigar Company, who promptly had the winning prize at my doorstep. I will use this ashtray for years to come. If your smoking area needs an ashtray, check out the variety of products that Stinky has to offer.

While your at it, pay attention to Stogie411.com, who has bi-weekly video casts not seen anywhere else. It goes without saying that Stogie Review is the king of cigar review websites. But every now and then somebody new pops up that is worth paying attention to.

By the way… Do you know the answer to the question that won me this prize? “What is the Stogie Review equivalent to a Rick Roll?” To my surprise, no one in the chat room knew. Duh… Winning…

Shop review – Cuenca Cigars & Lounge

Sunday, February 20th, 2011

You may remember our occasional guest Timm. He reviewed the Davidoff Millennium Blend & the Trinidad Fundadores awhile back. Late last year, he made his way to south Florida, smoked some cigars, and visited the shop up for review today. So take a minute and see how Cuenca Cigars & Lounge treated him. Let’s hope he stops by the site again.

Cuenca Cigars & Lounge

Location:1928 Harrison Street

Hollywood, FL, 33020

Phone: 866-417-9454

Mon – Sun: 11:00 am – midnight-ish

Owners: Miguel & Ana Cuencna

Some cigar shops focus their attention on quality cigars, some on great atmosphere, or on in-lounge entertainment and some on location, but few manage to touch all the bases.

Located in Hollywood Florida just a little North of Miami is Cuenca Cigars & Lounge. From the street you can see the storefront, but the best news is the smiling faces both outside & inside.

The owners, Miguel and Ana Cuenca, keep the shop full of nearly every quality cigar on the market, and all at very reasonable prices. Accessories are also available and include humidors, lighters, cutters, and various cigar-related accoutrements. Also available are hookahs and assorted pipe supplies

The inside lounge area is intimate and comfortable. However, the best seating is not in the store; it is just outside at a table playing dominos, enjoying a coffee and a smoke. The patio outside is a wonderful place to hang out after the sun goes down. Plenty of people to watch and some of the most warm-hearted, welcoming people I have ever met.

Ana is an incredible conversationalist, a gracious and attentive host who’s always ready with excellent Cuban coffee, water, or soda. The patrons are very friendly and made me feel as if I was a local.
