Cigars earning a CigarScore 3 are fair, but not special. These cigars are ones I’d smoke again, but only if I couldn’t find one of my other “go-to” smokes.

Cigar Review: El Septimo Gilgamesh Aqua Anu

Initial Thoughts: Some cigars don’t have much of a smell to them. Other cigars, like today’s Gilgamesh by El Septimo, have such an amazing aroma that you just have to smoke them, lest your taste buds be forever jealous of your nostrils. After punching through one of the hardest end caps I’ve ever had, the cold […]

Cigar Review: Camacho Corojo Robusto

Initial Thoughts: Every once in awhile, I see a cigar bundle I just have to have. I love cigar 5-packs because they let you sample a blend or a brand without committing to the purchase of another box. Well, today’s cigar, the Camacho Corojo Robusto came from just such a bundle, and I’m excited to review […]

Cigar Review: Padilla Series 1968 Black Bear Torpedo

Initial Thoughts: If you’ve never heard of Padilla cigars, welcome to the club. Before last year, I’d never heard of the brand that has actually been around and making cigars since 2013. The Padilla Series 1968 Black Bear Torpedo smells a little green at the onset. After cutting the end, the cold draw flavors were those […]

Cigar Review: Perdomo Lot 23 Connecticut Robusto

Initial Thoughts: The Perdomo Lot 23 Maduro is a cigar that made it onto the CigarScore Top 10 Cigars Under $10 list, so when I had a chance to review the Connecticut of the same line, I took it. Perdomo cigars, a.k.a. Tabacalera Perdomo is known for two things, making great cigars and being budget-friendly. Also, […]

Cigar Review: CAO Gold Robusto

Initial Thoughts: When it comes to the “classics,” what comes to mind? Cars? Movies? For me, “classics” are cigars like the CAO Gold Robusto, a cigar that’s been around, and one that helped put CAO on the map back in the 1980s. The CAO Gold has a classic look and feel to it. It’s got a […]

Cigar Review: RoMa Craft Intemperance Whiskey Rebellion 1794 Bradford

Initial Thoughts: While I don’t love all RoMa Craft Tobac’s cigars, I can’t deny the fact that they’re always well made with a lot of attention to detail. And, with that said, there are some RoMa Craft cigars that I absolutely love, like the Intemperance EC XVIII series. RoMa Craft makes a variety of cigars, most […]

Cigar Review: Joya de Nicaragua Joya Silver Toro

Initial Thoughts: When I saw the Joya de Nicaragua Joya Silver at my local lounge, I knew I wanted to review it. After smoking, enjoying, and reviewing other JDN cigars, I decided the Joya Silver was getting added to the list, and I bought it in January 2020 (I know because I stuck a CigarScore Cigar […]

Cigar Review: Zeal Cigars Got Your Six Gordo

Initial Thoughts: Not every cigar shop has house blends, but some do. So when Bradley Reith over at Zeal Cigars in Phoenix, Arizona asked me to review some of his house blend cigars, I said, “I’m in!” Today’s smoke is a blend Bradley made himself. It’s the Zeal Cigars Got Your Six Gordo, and it’s a […]

Cigar Review: Back2Back Connecticut Toro Gordo

Initial Thoughts: This cigar is YUUUGE! Ok, it’s not that big, but this Back2Back Connecticut is a 6 x 60 Toro Gordo of sorts, and it feels like a big, beefy cigar. While punching the cigar, I accidentally knicked the side of the cigar with the bottom of my lighter (the punch is on the bottom). I […]

Cigar Review: Plasencia Reserva Original Cortez Toro

Initial Thoughts: Have you ever smoked an organic cigar? Neither had I. So when I got the Plasencia Reserva Original Cortez Toro from Good Cigar Co. and found out that it was one of the few truly organic cigars on the market, I was pretty stoked! Here’s a blurb from our partners at Famous Smoke about […]

Cigar Review: AJ Fernandez Dias de Gloria Gordo

Initial Thoughts: With the Dias de Gloria Gordo, AJ Fernandez attempts to reimagine or remember the “glory days” of cigars. This giant cigar is a Nicaraguan puro. The wrapper leaf looks great and has no major veins that might cause an uneven burn, so this should be a great stick! CigarScore: Final Thoughts: The AJ […]

Cigar Review: The K by Karen Berger Habano Box Pressed Robusto

Initial Thoughts: Today’s cigar is the K by Karen Berger Habano Box Pressed Robusto. This cigar is short, stocky, and beautifully box-pressed. The wrapper on the cigar is light and a little dry (though not under-humidified). After lighting the cigar, there were light notes of cinnamon and leather. And, even with only a few small holes […]

Cigar Review: Perdomo Factory Tour Blend Maduro Churchill

Initial Thoughts: Before releasing in the United States, the Perdomo Factory Tour Blend was previously only available at the Perdomo factory in Nicaragua after you finished, you guessed it, the factory tour. However, the cigar was so successful for the brand that Nick Perdomo and his team decided to bring the cigar to market. So, after […]

Cigar Review: Atabey Idolos

Initial Thoughts: As soon as I took the Atabey Idolos out of the cellophane, I noticed two things. First, it’s a tiny cigar. Second, it smells fantastic. Regarding the rest of the cigar, after using my guillotine cutter, the draw was just about perfect. On the cold draw, there was a recognizable taste that my palate […]

sinistro honor among thieves scala lcc exclusive

Cigar Review: Sinistro Honor Among Thieves Scala

Initial Thoughts: The last cigar I had from Sinistro, The Last Cowboy, was one I called “perhaps the ugliest cigar ever made.” Well, today, with Honor Among Thieves, it looks like Sinistro took my comment not as a rebuke or even a criticism, but as a challenge. This cigar is bastard-ugly. With a shaggy foot and […]
