The first time I had this cigar was back at IPCPR in August when I was lucky enough to be invited to have a drink with Jason Wood, Rene Castenada and Nestor Miranda at the Rusty Nail in New Orleans. We sat around and drank some Abita beer when Nestor offered me one of the Art Deco smokes. The atmosphere can definitely make a cigar that is why I waited til now to review this cigar that has a bit of a buzz around it.
The smoke is available in tins of 21, and are produced by My Father Cigars for Miami Cigar & Company and marks a departure for sticks created at the My Father Factory. “We wanted to get Pepin out of his comfort zone, which is using Nicaraguan tobacco,” said Nestor Miranda. “He accepted the challenge and came out with an amazing blend using 40% Dominican tobacco.”

After a lengthy hiatus the Sunday links have returned. First a little self promotion it’s been a pretty active week and I got my 15 minutes of fame. In the latest issue of Cigar Snob I am mentioned in the story about the 107 Lancero. I was then mentioned by David Savona of Cigar Aficionado in his latest online story on big ring cigars.

There are so many updates that I decided to come back a day early. Here are some memories and information about new cigars. The list is long and will continue tomorrow as well.
I guess everyone wants to know how IPCPR and to be honest I found it a little overwhelming even with crowds much lighter then normal. I pretty much took a lot of time to be a spectator and I wandered the floor looking at new products and only taking the time to introduce myself if the person was not busy. After all this is a show for retailers first, press second.
