Blind Cigar Review: Espinosa | Reggae DREAD

"This is a damn good cigar. It was slightly milder than I typically prefer but the interesting mix of flavors kept my attention and didn't leave me wanting more. I'd recommend this to anyone who likes a cigar that is just south of medium strength and would also have no issues handing one to my friends who seldom smoke. This one is worthy of smoking to the nub and is worthy of a place in my humidor." -Jason H. (Jokey Smurf)

Espinosa Knuckle Sandwich Chef’s Special – Quick Cigar Review

The Knuckle Sandwich maduro might be my favorite cigar of the last year, and this one comes close to it. It is more refined, but without the power and spice that define the Knuckle Sandwich Maduro. I only have one of these cigars and I can't wait to pick up more to age and enjoy. This collaboration between Espinosa and Guy Fieri knocks it out of the park at every opportunity, and everyone should try a Knuckle Sandwich whether it's this one, or one of the other options.

Blind Cigar Review: Cubariqueño | Protocol Official Misconduct Corona Gorda

"This was an enjoyable cigar from start to finish. There were constant surprises in the profile from the pre-light all the way to the nub. It progressed the way I like for cigars to smoke. It started out with very pleasing flavors, and developed more, and different ones as it went along. The strength started out close to medium, and slowly progressed to finish solidly as medium full. This would pair well with bourbon or rum, and smokers with a little experience will get the most from it." -Kevin A. (Kevin A.)
