Cigar Review: Deadwood Sweet Jane Corona

Initial Thoughts: Today we’re going to talk about and review the Deadwood Tobacco Sweet Jane Corona, a cigar that’s NOT infused, but does have a sugar tip. I’ve never been a fan of infused or flavored cigars. In my experience, the tobacco in those cigars is often mediocre at best, but then an infusion or Read more…

You work hard for your money. And right now, it seems like everything is costing more, and cigars are no different. But the quest for a great cigar under $10 remains.

Cigar Review: Blackbird Rook Sumatra Robusto

Initial Thoughts: One thing I like about Blackbird Cigars is their color scheme for their labels. You never have to remember what cigar you liked (or disliked) from them, all you have to do is remember the color. Today’s cigar is the sky-blue Rook from Blackbird Cigars. The first thing I noticed about the Blackbird Read more…

Cigar Review: Perdomo 10th Anniversary Maduro Epicure Toro

Initial Thoughts: About a year ago, we reviewed the Perdomo Champagne Noir. And in the comments on YouTube, Nick Perdomo said they were changing the name of the cigar to the Perdomo 10th Anniversary Maduro, and that’s exactly what we’re smoking and reviewing today. The Perdomo 10th Anniversary Maduro Epicure Toro is a great-looking cigar. Read more…

Cigar Review: Fratello Classico Perfecto

Initial Thoughts: Some cigars are made by the thousands. Some, by the hundreds. Others, like today’s cigar, were part of a special club and were made by the dozens. The Fratello Classico Perfecto was originally only available if you purchased a limited edition Fratello humidor. And, if you did, you also received 40 cigars in Read more…

Cigar Review: AJ Fernandez San Lotano Bull Robusto

Initial Thoughts: Today we’re going to dive into the AJ Fernandez San Lotano The Bull Robusto, and with a name like “The Bull,” I expect this cigar to be bold. Immediately after removing the cigar from its cellophane, I noticed a nice texture to the wrapper leaf. While it wasn’t oily, it did feel very Read more…

Cigar Review: Fratello Oro Corona

Initial Thoughts: Very few cigar manufacturers fit my palate as close as Fratello Cigars. For the most part, every Fratello blend comes out great. So, for today’s cigar, the Fratello Oro in the corona vitola, I have high hopes. Right off the bat, the Fratello Oro Corona has a great looking wrapper that reminds me Read more…

Cigar Review: Padilla Finest Hour Sungrown Toro

Initial Thoughts: Here at CigarScore HQ, we don’t have just a ton of old and aged cigars lying around. However, thanks to the CigarScore Cigar Date Labels, we can keep track of what’s in our humidors. And today we’re reviewing the Padilla Finest Hour Sungrown Toro, a cigar we’ve been holding onto for over a Read more…

Cigar Review: AJ Fernandez Enclave Broadleaf Robusto

Initial Thoughts: Today we’re smoking the AJ Fernandez Enclave Broadleaf Robusto, a cigar I suspect is fairly common in the AJF section of your local humidor. I got this cigar at the beginning of February from CigarClub.com, and I’m excited to see what it has for us. The first thing I noticed about the AJ Read more…

Cigar Review: Alec Bradley Prensado Lost Art Robusto

Initial Thoughts: Today’s cigar for review is the Alec Bradley Prensado Lost Art Robusto, a cigar I got in Cigar Club’s November box. Before I even took the Lost Art out of the cellophane, I noticed some paint that had smudged on the cigar’s foot. There was also a tear in the wrapper leaf that Read more…

Cigar Review: Rodriguez Cigars Reserva Privada Robusto

Initial Thoughts: The first time I heard about Rodriguez Cigars in Key West, Florida, I was skeptical. Another boutique cigar company in South Florida? Who needs’em. But when I got a chance to smoke and review the Rodriguez Series 84 Natural Gran Toro, I fell in love. And today’s cigar comes from the same company. Read more…

Cigar Review: Black Works Studio NBK Corona Larga

Initial Thoughts: Whenever I go into a review of a cigar from Black Works Studio, I go into it expecting flavors of deeply roasted coffee. And that’s what I’m expecting with today’s cigar from the August Platinum Box from Luxury Cigar Club, the Black Works Studio NBK Corona Larga. The Black Works Studio NBK Corona Read more…
