Prior to the Pandemic the last thing I wanted to do was join a herf. Cigars were a solo pastime. Roll on May 2022 and I’m up in Halifax with 40+ cigar smokers
The Joya de Nicaragua Red Robusto is part of Joya de Nicaragua’s Modern line up. Is the Joya Red a modern classic or just a pretender to the crown?
I’ve been let down by cigars with undisclosed blends before. As the Rocky Patel The Edge Maduro Toro has Nestor Plasencia’s hands on it, would it disappoint me?
The Montecristo No 5 is the smallest hand rolled Cuban cigar. Is this petit corona a satisfying short smoke or a lacklustre remix of other Montecristo cigars?
Cocktail making doesn’t get much easier than this variation on the classic combination of rum and coke. Why not take it up a level with the Black Sun cocktail?
I love a lancero and it’s disappointing there are so few in the UK market. I was delighted that two lanceros from Casa Turrent were going to become available.
There’s a lot of talk about the positive holistic effects cigar smoking can have. Does the Alec Bradley Project 40 Experimental Series enhance these effects?
Don’t be fooled by the dimunutive size of La Flor Dominicana El Carajón. Underneath an understated band, this tres petit corona punches well above its weight.
Smoking a full bodied cigar with a sweet cocktail might not be an obvious pairing, but the Abbey in the Hills cocktail worked perfectly with the LFD El Carajón
