printscreen copy

The Q d’etat line represents a symbolic revolt against the unfair taxation practices and mistreatment of the premium cigar industry. The brand is intended to create awareness of the dangers increased government regulation and taxation will produce, specifically the FDA’s desire to regulate premium cigars. There will be three sizes, released at different dates, of 1,000 ten-count boxes. Each box will contain a form to register for membership in Cigar Rights of America. The first of the three sizes is a figurado called the “Molotov” and will be released in January.

God of Fire 2006 by Don Carlos – Cigar Review

GOF06

I was in Cigar Inn the other day in NYC looking for some cigars to review. It’s gotten tough lately in NYC, and as I tend to support my local brick & mortars the unsmoked cigars are beginning to run dry. It’s at the point where I might have to begin to catalog shop to get me through until new releases come out. Today’s cigar is the God of Fire by Don Carlos.

According to Brent Butterworth, “Carlos Fuente, Sr. (aka Don Carlos) and his son, Carlito Fuente, blended the God of Fire cigars. God of Fire by Don Carlos uses an Ecuadorian wrapper while God of Fire by Carlito has a Cameroon wrapper. Don Carlos and Carlito Fuente have adjusted their blends to suit each size and shape of cigar offered. All God of Fire cigars can be considered medium-bodied, and all deliver a smooth, refined character and a satisfying, full flavor. Beyond those common traits, though, no further generalizations can be made. One must sample all of the God of Fire cigars to experience the wealth of flavors this line offers.”

Davidoff expands the “Puro d’Oro” Series introduced in 2010 with a new shape. The new large Toro format, “Puro d’Oro” Eminentes, is an imposing cigar. The dominant and sublime combination of Dominican tobaccos delivers a strong, aromatic and delicious blend with hints of coffee and spices. The impressive extension of the “Puro d’Oro” line reverts back to the old tradition of cigar making, made entirely with tobacco from one country of origin, the Dominican Republic.

Quesada Espana – Cigar Review

Quesada Espana

The Quesada Espana is currently available only in Spain, but there were some floating around the Pro Cigar Festival. Thanks to a friend I was able to get a sample of these to smoke. As of now the Quesada family is undecided if they should release these in the American market as well. The cigar is blended to fit what the Spanish smoker wants. They prefer cigars with lighter wrappers and smaller ring gauges. As a result these come in a corona (5.5 x 42); short robusto (4 x 50); and a traditional robusto (5 x 50) The cigars sell from €5.50 to €6.35.

Although the cigars were aimed at the Cuban taste profile, the cigar is meant to stand on its own, so that the Spanish smoker will find it comparable with his regular Cuban smokes.

Cigar Review: Davidoff Puro Perfecto

On one of my recent trips to Philadelphia we wrapped up the work day by heading over to Holt’s to grab a few smokes and head up to Mahogany to smoke them and sip on some fine single malt scotch. If you find yourself in Philadelphia these are stops any cigar smoker must make to [...]
