  Posted on Thursday April 2nd, 2009 at 07:28 pm in politics news socialism cigars

  Today the all-knowing, the benficient, the merciful federal government (or at least the House) passed a bill placing tobacco now under the watchful eye of the food and drug administration. They’ve done such a great job with other foodstuffs, af...

• Top 10 Cigars: #1 — La Riqueza #2 (Nic)

  Posted on Friday February 27th, 2009 at 05:48 am in Leisure cigars top-10 lists

  I’ve enjoyed  making this list more than I expected, although coming up with a number one took several trips to the old humidor. In this top ten I tried to reflect what I really enjoy at this moment, so properly, this would be “my top te...

• Top 10 Cigars: #2 — Padron 1964 Anniversary Maduro (Nic)

  Posted on Thursday February 26th, 2009 at 06:53 am in Leisure cigars top-10 lists

  Man, are these sticks getting good now… Nicaragua keeps hanging around on this countdown doesnt’ it? In fact, I was thinking last night that I might do a new list every year. Tastes change, and while this reflects my faves from the past y...

  Posted on Wednesday February 25th, 2009 at 06:00 am in Leisure cigars top-10 lists

  Those of you out there who just said “what?”… this post’s for you. Consider it a service. It’s no surprise that not many have yet discovered Panacea cigars. They’ve only been around for a little over a year, but le...

• Top 10 Cigars: #4a & 4b — Jesus Fuego 777 / El Triunfador

  Posted on Tuesday February 24th, 2009 at 06:00 am in Leisure cigars top-10 lists

  Ok, so I’m writing this on Sunday afternoon and seriously couldn’t decide. Being completely against indecision, I made said decision to not decide. Confused yet? I am. Sooo anyway. There are two cigars at number four because they both bri...

• Top 10 Cigars: #5 — Gran Habano 3 Siglos (Hon)

  Posted on Monday February 23rd, 2009 at 06:00 am in Leisure cigars top-10 lists

  You don’t always have to look to the top end of a producer’s line to find his best cigar. In this case however, you do. Gran Habano is a relative newcomer to the scene, with a Connecticut #1, Habano #3, Corojo #5, and “3 Siglos̶...

• Top 10 Cigars: #6 — Trinidad Coloniales (Cuba)

  Posted on Friday February 20th, 2009 at 06:00 am in Leisure cigars top-10 lists

  Coming in at number six in the countdown is a not-so classic Habanos in one of my favorite shapes. Trinidad has only been around since 1998 with the creation of the Fundadores lancero, but this 2003 corona is simply outstanding. There are many other ...

• Top 10 Cigars: #7 — Oliva Serie V (Nic)

  Posted on Thursday February 19th, 2009 at 06:00 am in Leisure cigars top-10 lists

  Rarely do I buy a cigar by the box. I do in this case. As I type this I learn more about my own tastes, in that this is the second double ligero in my top ten. Who knew? I like traveling alone. I don’t really know why, but the quiet and freedom...

• Top 10 Cigars: #9 — CAO LX2 (Nic)

  Posted on Tuesday February 17th, 2009 at 06:00 am in Leisure cigars top-10 lists

  Yes, I’m actually going to include a CAO on the list. Usually, I find CAO cigars to not live up to the marketing. Maybe in six months I’ll say the same thing about #9 on the list. Hopefully not, because the CAO LX2 is a pretty fine smoke....

  Ready to kick it off with a surprise? No, this isn’t going to be a list of Cuban pretense, but I had to include this at number ten if anything for shock value. I discovered Jose La Piedra a few weeks ago from a friend, and let me tell you, for ...
