Blind Cigar Review: Camacho | Nicaraguan Barrel-Aged Toro
“I don’t always reach for the cigar with the herb and spice notes, however this one was very enjoyable. The flavors stayed away from an overwhelming spice flavor, and just teased the palate with welcomed flavors. Overall this was a great smoke that will be enjoyed again after the reveal. The strength allows this cigar to be enjoyed by the novice and the connoisseur. ” -Adam B. (Bushboy)

“This was a very enjoyable smoke. The combinations of flavors was quite suprising, and the difference in strength was an added bonus. I think the hard pack made this cigar last a good long while more than i had anticipated it burned very slow.” -Ryan H. (Ryan H.)

Blind Cigar Review: Ventura Cigar | PSyKo Seven Connecticut Corona
“Wow… whatever this is I want more for my collection. This is one of those mild smokes that you just have to have for a nice relaxing session where you can kick back and relax while you enjoy the experience. More complex than most mild cigars, it had a great flavor profile from each third to another and it never got bitter at the end like some lighter smokes get. Two thumbs up.” -John A. (John A.)

Blind Cigar Review: Drew Estate | Undercrown Sun Grown Gran Toro
“This was such an enjoyable cigar. It was not a powerhouse, and it was not overly complex, but it was flavorful all the way. I enjoyed each puff, and the sweet/spice mix was really a nice combo at the end of the day. It also looked beautiful, and had no performance issues, so no extra work on the part of the smoker in order to enjoy the cigar. This one would have a place in my humidor. ” -Matthew T. (A Huge Nerd)

Blind Cigar Review: Joya de Nicaragua | Antaño Gran Reserva Robusto Grande
“I liked this. A lot. I’d be happy to have a humidor packed full of them, and hope they’re priced to allow that. That being said, it’s not extraordinary. It’s not terribly nuanced, or subtle, but it’s really good at being a really nice medium-full, ultra peppery cigar.” -John I. (John I.)

Blind Cigar Review: Camacho | Imperial Stout Barrel-Aged
“I enjoyed this cigar very much. The woody and nutty flavors were fantastic and the performance showed off the high quality tobacco and expertise of the roller. The nice white ash was a great contrast to the dark wrapper and looked fantastic while smoking. I will pick up a few more of these in the future. Definitely recommend trying this cigar if you like a full flavored smoke with a good transition from start to finish. ” -Adam B. (Bushboy)

Blind Cigar Review: Pulita | 60 Aniversario Toro
“This cigar hit all of my sweet spots in terms of flavor. Peppery, leathery, with hints of scotch whiskey toward the end. I’d happily invest in a few more of these to see if I could get some with a more consistent draw. I bet this would be a tremendous smoke if that issue was ameliorated. ” -John I. (John I.)
