La Gloria Cubana Gran Legado – Figurado (7.75 x 62)
The LGC Gran Legado is a cigar that pays tribute to the workers who make La Gloria Cubana, made by only the most experienced rollers using higher priming leaves in the filler. Sounds amazing…. on paper.
La Flor Dominicana Oro Maduro (No. 6) – Toro (6 x 54)
The LFD Oro line is almost 15 years old, so let’s take a fresh look.
Stolen Throne Yorktown Fleet – Torpedo (Box Press) (6 x 50)
Stolen Throne’s Yorktown Fleet is an homage to the naval history of Stolen Throne’s home town. Does it bring superior firepower or is it all wet?
Dunbarton Tobacco & Trust Todos Las Dias 2026 (Double Wide Belicoso) – Belicoso (4.75 x 60)
If you’re struggling to fall asleep, I start this one with a bedtime story. It’s about how Steve Saka told me not to smoke his shit. OMG, WHAT??? Don’t get your tits twisted, it’s a good story! Who doesn’t love a happy ending? And the story wraps up nicely too!
Dunbarton Tobacco & Trust 10th Jubilee – Corona Gorda (5.63 x 48)
10 years of Saka. You’re going to have your own strong opinion on that statement regardless of what I say. And that’s the beauty of Steve Saka.
Lampert Oro Toro Grande (Don Patrón 56) – Gran Toro (6.5 x 56)
Long, thick, woody and creamy. I really hope Dr. Stefan appreciates a good dick joke, or I might be kicked out of the Black Card membership. 🫣
CLE Eiroa CBT – Toro (6 x 54)
Is the Eiroa CBT a remake, a remix, or a reboot of the Christian Eiroa’s first triple maduro cigar, the Camacho Triple Maduro?
Lampert Baba Yaga – Toro (6 x 52)
The Baba Yaga of Slavic culture is a true chaotic neutral, will the cigar live up the namesake? Or does it make you want to go all John Wick and snuff it out?
J.C. Newman LeRoy Neiman 2025 Collectors Edition – Torpedo (6.25 x 52)
No… it’s not Leonard Nimoy, or Nieman Marcus, but LeRoy Neiman the painter. 🤦🏻 Is the experience with J.C. Newman’s cigar as inspiring LeRoy Neiman’s artwork?
Warped Isla del Cocodrilo Toro Grande Limited Edition – Gran Toro (6.5 x 54)
I’ve been up and down with the Isla del Cocodrilo line. Will the previously international only Gran Toro complete the redemption arc now that it’s coming home to the US?
The Rest
Smoke and Steel x The Burnable, good fucking god….
Much like a lonely housewife, the Smoke and Steel guys were feeling desperate and invited me into the garage on a scorching summer evening for some “fun.” At least nobody got chlamydia this time!
