• Cigar Review – Epicure Habano by Crux Cigars

    It doesn’t happen very often, but occasionally a package of cigars will arrive here at TNCC headquarters that catches us by surprise. A package that we weren’t expecting, a package in which the sender didn’t reach out for our address, no introductory emails were sent ahead of time… a...

  • Cigar Review – Hot Cakes Golden Line by HVC

    In early 2021, The Tuesday Night Cigar Club featured the original Hot Cake corona gorda on a particularly entertaining podcast episode and we all gave it a thumbs up. Skip ahead a few years and HVC has recently released a more mild version of their Hot Cake line which...
  • Cigar Review – Muestra de Saka Krakatoa by Dunbarton Tobacco & Trust

    I look forward to Dunbarton’s Muestra de Saka releases each year and 2023’s Krakatoa is no exception. The cigar was to be released originally back in 2021 but was delayed and then last year’s offering, The Bewitched, jumped ahead in the line. Dunbarton main man Steve Saka had this...
  • Cigar Review – Cinco de Cinco by Joya de Nicaragua

    Joya de Nicaragua is celebrating its 55th anniversary in 2023 and, as they have traditionally done over the last five years, the oldest factory in Nicaragua has blended a special cigar to commemorate the occasion. “As we have always said, this is the best cigar that comes out of...
  • Cigar Review – S&R 2023 by Black Works Studio

    The original S&R is one of my favorite all-time releases from James Brown & Black Works Studio, so when I learned earlier this year that it was being reimagined I was both curious and somewhat nervous. Would I enjoy it as much as the 2018 release? What if it...
  • Cigar Review – Mi Querida Black PapaSaka by Dunbarton Tobacco & Trust

    Before you storm TNCC headquarters with your cyber pitchforks and sanctimonious torches, we will go ahead and state the obvious right now – we are big fans of Dunbarton Tobacco & Trust. It’s not because the company sends us cigars for review. It’s not because DTT’s founder Steve Saka...
  • Cigar Review – Intemperance Volstead VO 1920 George Remus by RoMa Craft

    As a longtime RoMa Craft fan, this might just be my most anticipated cigar of the year. The Quinquagenario, blended with Ernesto Perez-Carrillo Jr. to celebrate RoMa’s cofounder Skip Martin’s 50th birthday, is also high on my radar but I got my hands on the Volstead first. So here...
  • Cigar Review – La Madonna Negra by Black Label Trading Company

    So… honesty time. It’s been a while since I’ve smoked a newly released cigar that’s impressed me. I can’t remember a stretch of months this consecutive where everything that showed up in the TNCC mailbox was so ho hum, so boring. While there’s been some eye-catching presentations and many...
