Punch Diablo by Aj Fernandez – IPCPR 2018
Origin: Nicaragua
Shape: Toro (6.1†x 50) Wrapper: Ecuadoran Sumatra Oscuro Wrapper Filler: Nicaraguan and Honduran Ligero leaves Binder: Connecticut Broadleaf Strength: Full Bodied MSRP: Between $7 and $8 Backstory We all know and love Punch cigars but looking at the Punch Diablo, you get this uneasy feeling this is not your normal Punch Cigar. Released this year at IPCPR 2018, Punch delivers its boldest creation to date – Punch Diablo. Punch cigars have been produced in Honduras since their inception in 1960, but when it came time to blend a new, bolder Punch, they turned to none other … Continue reading the story "Punch Diablo by Aj Fernandez – IPCPR 2018"Punch Diablo by AJ Fernandez – IPCPR 2018
Origin: Nicaragua
Shape: Toro (6.1†x 50) Wrapper: Ecuadoran Sumatra Oscuro Wrapper Filler: Nicaraguan and Honduran Ligero leaves Binder: Connecticut Broadleaf Strength: Full Bodied MSRP: About $7 My Rating: 4.5 out of 5 Stars! This new Punch Diablo on the surface seemed right in my wheelhouse, so without being partial to bolder Maduro style cigars, here is my take on this new creation. First off you might notice that this is “of course†another AJ Fernandez creation, but when the going is good why not have your hand in as much as you can. Oh, and AJ and Punch … Continue reading the story "Punch Diablo by AJ Fernandez – IPCPR 2018"ACID Cartel Subculture Returns as JML Wholesale Exclusive

Arango Cigar Co. Is New Exclusive US Distributor for Falcon Pipes
Arango Cigar Co. is now distributing Falcon brand pipes, after acquiring exclusive US
marketing rights from Music City Marketing in 2017. The modern Falcon Pipe System’s
unmatched combination of quality, value, performance and versatility has gained acclaim over

Shape: Toro (6.2" x 54)

Partagas has created a very unique and complex cigar with this newest style the Partagas Legend. I have had the pleasure of enjoying a couple of these cigars and I am very impressed. I particularly have never stopped down on any other Partagas blends, although I do think a cigar shop in Mexico tried to sell me a "real" Partagas Cuban once, but this Partagas Legend has definitely opened my eyes and has … Continue reading the story "Partagas Legend Toro Leyenda – IPCPR 2018"

Filler: Dominican Piloto Cubano
Strength: Med-Full
MSRP: around $14.49
My Rating: 4.25 Stars!
For this review, I had the pleasure of enjoying 2 of these fine cigars. The first was while watching Thursday Night Football at my local cigar lounge and my second was while watching my New York Jets face off against the Denver Broncos in my "man cave" (the garage).
While enjoying the Legend, right off the bat both times I tasted light sweetness from the Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper. It was not too powerful and gives it a … Continue reading the story "Partagas Legend Toro Leyenda Cigar Review – IPCPR 2018"
