Joya De Nicaragua Antano Dark Corojo


Having not had a Joya De nicaragua in quite some time I decided to try the new Antano Dark Corojo. After the Drew Estate rep left me a few here to try. It wasn't long after lighting one up I had him on the phone Ordering up every size. If you like a full bodied cigar then I am sure you will love these things too!
The Joya de Nicaragua Antano Dark Corojo is made in Nicaragua. The line of cigars is well made and feature a very dark Nicaraguan Corojo wrapper grown in the Jalapa region. The Joya de Nicaragua Antano Dark Corojo is a full bodied cigar with flavors of pepper, leather, dark chocolate, and some slight hints of caramel. The ligero leaves that are in this cigar are a variety that Joya de Nicaragua calls "ligeron." The Joya de Nicaragua Antano Dark Corojo is a must try for fans of strong Nicaraguan cigars.

Rocky Patel Edge- Sumatra


There baaaack!!!

I had to BEG Rocky to get me as many tray's of these as possible. But the Edge Sumatra may not be around for long. The 2010 release is limited to around 1000 trays . Half of them will be toros and half torpedos (both vitolas 6 x 52), for a grand total 100,000 cigars. the reason for this is that they simply don’t have enough of the Sumatra wrapper needed to create a continuous line, so they rolled as may as they could with leaf they had available.

Illusione Nosotros


A new invention from John Drew and dion Giolito.
The Illusione Nosotros Cigars are rolled by Drew Estates in Nicaragua and are the latest creation from Illusione. A blend of fine tobaccos from Nicaragua with a Corojo '99 wrapper, Nicaraguan fillers, and Connecticut Habano binder. Because "Nosotros" means "us" this is symbolic of Illusione and Drew Estates joining forces to produce another fantastic cigar. Don Giolito of Illusione says that these cigars are best described as. “Spicy and clean on the palate with richness and power that really sneaks up on you. . As it turned out, the first combination of tobaccos that we experimented with wound up being the final blend".

Room 101 cigars from Camacho

New to our selection.
Room 101 cigars are made in Honduras at the Camacho cigar factory under the watchful eye of Christian Eiroa. The tobacco blend for Room 101 cigars was carefully selected by Christian Eiroa and Matt Booth.
The Room 101 cigar features an exclusive Semilla 101 Honduran wrapper (grown solely for this project), a Honduran binder and a blend of long-filler tobaccos from Honduras and the Dominican Republic.
The body of Room 101 is medium with lush notes of espresso and cocoa with copious amounts of dense smoke. No other cigar that I’ve had offers the same flavor experience as Room 101. Room 101 is simply “Cigar Bliss”, jump at the opportunity to experience Room 101.
