Small Batch Cigar has become an advertiser on our website. There was a lot that went into choosing them to be the online retailer we have partnered with so allow me to share… I’ve been blogging and writing about cigars since 1998 when I first began working in the cigar industry in a small brick & mortar cigar shop owned by three retired police officers. Ron, Jerry & Joe would give me an education on […]

The brand was success partly I part was because of the price. The 2009 La Aroma de Cuba Robusto was a $5.25 cigar. Granted there are many factors that go into pricing such as labor, tobacco rarity, […]

These two bottles have something in common, I won them in the New Hampshire Stare Liquor Mafia Lottery. You see, here in New Hampshire the state makes this bottle and many other allocated bottles only available twice a year, […]
