All right, all right, let me make something very clear – THIS is not your average, everyday cigar blog. Hey, I’m serious here… Oh, really, why is that?
Well, it’s actually SO much deeper, that we came up with the tag line “astonishing tales of passion and desire”, because that’s what it’s really all about.
If you’re passionate about your cigar smoking, well, it’s good guess that you are passionate about a number of great things like food, cars, movies, sports, music, alcohol, you know, just to name a few. And THAT is what we’re going to talk about here along with your love of the hand rolled leaf. Trust me, it’s going to be a ton of good fun and you’re going to have an absolute blast!
So, let me ask you a question… do you remember your first cigar? (If you have to think about it for more than 1/100th of a second, I question your validity in the species). Mine was a Montecristo robusto at my older brother’s wedding and I remember it like it was, well, 20 years ago (ha). Seriously, the wedding party lit up in unison and I was absolutely hooked from the very first puff. The taste, the smell, and the feel of that blue smoke leaving my lips was like a short visit to the heavenly gates. I mean it, I was enthralled.
Two decades later, cigar smoking is such big part of my existence, but if I think about it, I’m not sure exactly why I love it so much. I mean I love trying new sticks, old favorites, going to herfs of 3 people to several hundred, and just sitting under the stars on my deck late at night. Like I said, I’m hooked, and I’m betting that if you’re reading this, then you are too. But why? What is it about smoking a cigar that is so damned captivating? I really can’t put my finger on it, can you? All I know is that I love my time spent with a hand rolled premium stick and I guess that’s a good enough answer for me. So, let me ask – do you agree? Okay, I know, stupid question.
So, join us each week on Tuesdays and Fridays as we light up your senses with the joys of leafy pleasures and those amazing things in life that go with them, you know, seared steak, Chevelles, rock n’ roll, a belt of whiskey, and more fun than you can even imagine.
And hey, just take a look at what else we’ve got cookin’ up here…
