Blind Cigar Review: H. Upmann | The Banker Annuity

"I enjoyed this cigar. It's milder than my typical smoke, and the blend really focuses on a natural sweet tobacco flavor. It's a nice change from the earth and chocolate-heavy nicaraguans I tend to favor, and very different from the CC's I prefer, being much "thinner" in body. While I would generally prefer the richness of a CC or the boldness of a Nicaraguan, this was an interesting change up for me, and one I enjoyed. Recommended for fans of milder smokes, or medium cigars with natural sweet tobacco core flavors like the El Triunfador." -Derek (StogieNinja)

Blind Cigar Review: CAO | Amazon Basin Toro

"I really enjoyed the first third and was hoping the coffee would develop a little more, or at least remain in the mix. While it left during the end of the second third, the transition gave me a chance to smoke a cigar with another profile. Both were very good." -Gregg (McGreggor57)

Blind Cigar Review: 1502 | Ruby Torpedo

"Ok, I'll say it straight up, I loved this cigar! From its appearance, construction and through the smoke, this stogie was a joy. I can't wait to hear what it is so I can go score some!" -Robert (NavyPiper)

Blind Cigar Review: Emilio | AF1 Gran Toro

"I'm curious to see the reveal on this stick. While I would have really liked to have seen some more complexity and changes in profile in such a long smoke, the flavors were very nice and it was a pretty low maintenance stick. Assuming the price is right, it might make a nice "daily" smoker." -Dave (mdwest)

Blind Cigar Review: Studio Tobac | Reckoning Toro

"This cigar started off slow and a little boring for me, but won me over in the end with some great transitions and balance of flavors. The profile was a very good woody and spicy balance. It wasn't too strong, but not so mild I would call it a morning cigar, right in the middle. I would definitely smoke this again and recommend a fiver to see how it ages." -Emmett (rhetorik)

Blind Cigar Review: Leccia | Luchador El Hombre

"Enjoyable. As I've been smoking over these past few years, I've slowly begun to lose a taste for heavy maduros, but I like this one, in part because it's not too heavy. It's not particularly complex, but it features everything a maduro ought to. It's like if AJ Fernandez quit blending budget sticks and moved on to the good stuff. Highly recommended for fans of his work who want to try something just a little bit better." -Derek (StogieNinja)

Blind Cigar Review: Ezra Zion | Jamais Vu Exquisito

"I enjoyed this cigar. The cold aroma of maple leaves was unique, and the mix of caramel and cream and leather and maple and pepper and baking spices and sweetness was quite enjoyable, and changed frequently enough to keep me interested. Recommended." -Derek (StogieNinja)

Blind Cigar Review: 1502 | Emerald Toro

"This stick took me for a ride that I didnt expect. Prior to lighting it I thought I would be smoking something medium to full in strength, with earthy qualities and that the stick would be very much "in your face". What I got instead was a fairly complex stick that was closer to the mild side of the strength equation with light, but pronounced flavors. Instead of an after an evening meal type smoke, I ended up with a cigar that I think would be extremely nice with a morning cup of coffee. I'll likely be seeking more of these out once the reveal is done." -Dave (mdwest)

Blind Cigar Review: Epicurian | Gonzo Perfecto

"I've had my heart broken too many times by cigars that started great but faltered during the last third. This cigar was truly a pleasure to smoke. A full bodied start that offered a respite in the middle followed by a great finishing third. The sweeter profile at the end capped off a very enjoyable experience." -Gregg (McGreggor57)

Blind Cigar Review: Hoja de Flores Robusto

"Overall this was a really great cigar. The flavors were outstanding and overall the construction was great. There were some nice transitions in the flavor and the first two thirds were expertly balanced. If time would improve the final third, this could be a contender for cigar of the year." -Emmett (rhetorik)
