Cigar Review: Illusione ECCJ Corona Gorda

Initial Thoughts: At first glance, the Illusione ECCJ Corona Gorda looks very tasty. The medium brown wrapper has veins that are thin and look to be well dehydrated. The end cap is a little off-center, but that might not cause any issues. After punching the cigar just once, the draw was great and I could fully […]

Cigar Review: Zeal Cigars House 556 Maduro Churchill

Initial Thoughts: I’m not much for house cigars. They’re typically not quite up to par with their more premium partners (as you’d expect). Whenever I sit down with a stick to enjoy a couple of hours of my day, I tend to prefer something well-built, tasty, and that’s going to be something to enjoy. So, when […]

Cigar Review: My Father Connecticut Edition Toro

Initial Thoughts: If you’ve been following my reviews for even a short amount of time, you know I’m a huge fan of the My Father brand of cigars. So, when I grabbed the My Father Connecticut Edition Toro from my humidor, I started to get really excited! After cutting the cigar with my guillotine, I got […]

Cigar Review: Balmoral Serie Signaturas Dueto Ovacion

Initial Thoughts: I was excited to dive into the Balmoral Serie Signaturas Dueto Ovacion (what a mouthful!!), until I saw the name Ernesto Perez-Carrillo on the label. See, I’ve smoked two of E.P. Carrillo’s “Cigar of the Year, 2018” and neither left me with positive feelings about the brand. However, the Balmoral Dueto is a collaboration […]

Cigar Review: Gurkha Chairman’s Select Grand Robusto Perfecto

Initial Thoughts: I’m no stranger to Gurkha Cigars. Here on CigarScore.com, I’ve reviewed the Gurkha Royal Challenge, the Gurkha Ghost Asura, the Gurkha Cellar Reserve Platinum Solara, and the Gurkha Heritage. And it’s no secret that they never score very high on the CigarScore scale. However, as with every new cigar, I went into the Gurkha […]

cigar review Casa Cuevas Limited Editon Maduro Flaco

Cigar Review: Casa Cuevas Limited Edition Maduro Flaco

Initial Thoughts: I was first introduced to the Casa Cuevas brand by Luxury Cigar Club in the middle of 2019. The Casa Cuevas Connecticut was a delicious cigar that was priced right, and it earned a CigarScore of 4. So, when the Casa Cuevas Limited Edition Maduro Flaco showed up (also from Luxury Cigar Club), I was […]

Cigar Review: MBombay Gaaja Torpedo Maduro

Initial Thoughts: MBombay is not a cigar brand with which I’m too familiar. However, when I got this near-$16 cigar from Luxury Cigar Club, I was very excited. The MBombay Gaaja Torpedo Maduro is a beautiful cigar. The wrapper is a medium-dark color that looks like a Hershey’s chocolate bar. The cigar is box-pressed and a […]

Cigar Review: La Aurora 115th Anniversary Limited Edition Belicoso

Initial Thoughts: Wow, this cigar smells really good. As soon as I snatched the La Aurora 115th Anniversary Limited Edition Belicoso out of my humidor, I knew I was in for a good time. I hoped. The cigar looks dark and oily and appears well made. After cutting off the tip with my guillotine, the draw […]

Cigar Review: Pura Soul Honduras

Initial Thoughts: Cigars are a lot like coffee and wine and beer – almost anyone can make them. Today, I’m smoking the Pura Soul Honduras, a cigar from a brand I’ve never heard of. This cigar was given to me by a fellow smoker at a local lounge. So, after providing a home in my humidor […]
