Quesada Oktoberfest – Cigar Review & Contest

Quesada Oktoberfest Band

I think one of the things I miss the most is the ability to light up at a bar drinking an ice cold beer from the tap. Thankfully there are a few places here in Gotham where you can do this although it has become increasingly more difficult.

Earlier this year Matasa in Santiago, Dominican Repuiblic announced they would release a cigar meant specifically to smoke while drinking beer, an Oktoberfest style beer. At first I was skeptical because unless you have a man cave or a friendly neighborhood B&M that allows you to BYOB the chances to properly enjoy such a cigar might be rare. The cigars are available in two sizes, Bavarian (5.5 x 52) and Über (6 x 65). The MSRP of the Quesada Oktoberfest $7.95 and $8.95 respectively.

The cigars are due out later this month.

rockyPatelLogoBG

am on fire. 3 posts in one day is a record for me. I am not trying to be Tom from cigarreader.com but there is so much happening this week that I have to get it out there. I am sure in the middle of the week when I am stressing on what to write about I will regret not banking this one, but I had to share more thoughts.

Cigar Inn in NYC had an event today for the pre-release launch of the 15th Anniversary from Rocky Patel. If you purchased a box of cigars you received another box for free of a one of kind 15th Anniversary.

Cigar Review: Cabaiguan Guapos

Over the next week or so the updates to this website will be sparse as my schedule will not allow me to update. It is the primary reason updates have been slow over the last 2 weeks. For this I apologize. Today’s review is yet another Pete Johnson cigar. The Cabaiguan cigar is created in [...]

Review: Arganese CL3 / Arganese ML3

About a month ago I was in contact with someone over at Arganese Cigars where an acquaintance of mine just got a job as the New England Sales Rep. After talking to my contact I was sent a few cigars to review along with a baseball cap. Although I smoked these cigars on separate days [...]

Review: Romeo Y Julieta Edicion Limitada

I am sitting here watching the opening ceremonies from the 2008 Olympics and I am blown away by what the Chinese have done. But at the same time I feel bad for them as a people. While the ceremonies have been visually amazing, the people performing them are almost without emotion. The military like movements [...]

Review: Viaje Oro Delicado

Last week the owner of my local b&m pointed out to me a cigar in Smoke Magazine for today’s review. He was contemplating bringing them into the store for retail sale. The reviewers for the cigar gave it high marks, but it failed to be very descriptive in terms of flavor. When I informed the [...]

Review: CAO LX2

It’s been too long between reviews and for that I apologize. The last few days I have had to start work early, do car repairs and one day I just didn’t want to wake up. Unless I smoke in the AM or early evening in seclusion I won’t do a review so I had to [...]

Review: RoxoR deluxe

Today’s smoke was gifted to me by someone who was at the trade show in Las Vegas. Whit it is a cigar that I have never smoked before, it was still a gift. Since he had two of these and since I have been trying to teach my buddy Sonny how to identify and taste [...]

Review: Gurkha Centurian

[I managed to get my hands on a CAO LX 2 today and once it sits in my humidor for a few days I will smoke it and post the review. One of my most eagerly awaited smokes] One drawback of writing this blog is that my monthly cigar budget has gone through the roof. [...]

Review: Illusione 68 (Bombone)

Yesterday I was hanging out with some friends at the Elks in NJ smoking some cigars, slamming back a few drinks when someone brought up I watch the Tour De France. Well I got a lot of abuse for watching the “Tour De Fag”. Say what you want about the French, but the countryside is [...]

Review: Alec Bradley Maxx

One cigar that seems to be getting a lot of hype lately is the Alec Bradley Tempus, but I could not find the cigar local in New York City no matter how much I searched for it. I looked high and low, and even ventured into parts of New Jersey looking to obtain that cigar [...]
