CADE

Brother of the Leaf, Prophet, former Mr. South Dakota 1996. I was a bouncer on the child beauty pageant circuit until one too many juice boxes went missing and somebody had to take the fall. I was set up. Fine, I was thirsty. All that hairspray in the air dries out your throat like a motherfu... I apologize to no man. Now I host the Tuesday Night Cigar Club.
  • Cigar Review – Sarzedas by J.C. Newman Cigar Company

    Some cigar companies take their websites more seriously than others to put it gently. I truly appreciate those that do everything they can to make sure that if you, the consumer, takes the time to visit their site you’ll be able to find a wealth of information about the...
  • Cigar Review – Puros Huerfanos Maduro by Drew Estate

    Many many moons ago, I reviewed a limited budget-friendly offering from the fine folks at Famous Smoke Shop and Drew Estate. The line was called Puros Huerfanos and here’s how Famous described it back in 2021: “The name ‘Puros Huerfanos’ means cigar orphans, and that’s exactly what they are....
  • Cigar Review – Deliverance Nocturne by Black Label Trading Company

    I was somewhat surprised to find that the only variation of the Deliverance line of cigars that the TNCC has reviewed to date was the Deliverance Porcelain way back in 2021. That’s a very good cigar that has really grown on me over the last few years. Other than...
  • Cigar Review – Anunnaki Anu by Don Emmanuel Cigars

    Don Emmanuel is a relatively new company on the premium cigar scene and this is the first opportunity we here in The Corner Of No Hope have had to sample their wares. In 2021, Eladio Díaz left his role as Davidoff’s Dominican production chief and blender to start his...
  • Cigar Review – Suave Natural Maceo by La Flor Dominicana

    Going in to this review, I couldn’t remember if the Tuesday Night Cigar Club had ever featured a La Flor Dominicana cigar in the past. “If only there was some way to verify that!” I thought to myself. So I submitted a request with the TNCC’s IT Department and...
  • Top 10 Cigars of 2025

    So here’s our list. The cream of the crop as far as premium cigars the TNCC reviewed in 2025. As always, before y’all start clutching your pearls, we’re not saying these are the best cigars on the market by any means. We are simply stating that out of the...
  • Cigar Review – Sin Compromiso Word of Saka by Dunbarton Tobacco & Trust

    I recently purchased a Dunbarton Tobacco & Trust “Deep Cuts Sampler” online from Secreto Cigar Bar and I received a warm DTT beanie as a nice bonus. It was my first purchase from Secreto and I experienced great customer service and fast shipping, I highly recommended it. They also...
  • Cigar Review – Steel Porcupine by RoMa Craft Tobac

    The CRAFT Maquette Series began two years ago as a way for RoMa Craft Tobac to showcase some limited blends and give their loyal fanbase a firsthand look at some creations that fall outside the company’s core lines. Or that is my understanding of it. I was excited to...
  • Cigar Review – Blackened S84 Shade to Black Lancero by Drew Estate

    We have enjoyed both of Drew Estate’s Blackened releases here in The Corner Of No Hope. The original M81 Maduro to the Core scored a highly respectable 91 and the subsequent S84 Shade to Black scored an even more impressive 92. Blackened Cigars is a passion project that brings...
