The St. Patrick's day edition. This cigar had a bright green wrapper, which turned out to be pretty brittle. If you want it to keep, it's cool, but if you want to smoke one, just get the standard brown wrapper.


In our experience, the Opus X hasn't been worth the extra money over the Hemingway series. However, taste is subjective to a large degree, and its still worth a shot. Give it a try! The lower part of the image is from the cellophane sleeve.


This cigar is fantastic. There are four bands in this picture, but we have over 20 more!

A darker take on a classic.

Smooth and mild. A good cigar for an afternoon in the garage.

A very good cigar, medium in body, and big on flavor. The band looks pretty cool too.

Every day is independence day! 'Merica.




Don't underestimate the strength of these little suckers!

This one is described in the archive group review!

After this long, you know that they know what they're doing. Pick one up!


A wonderful investment! Read the review!


This one was called "The Dark Knight."






This one was definitely something new and interesting. There is quite a variety of tobaccos in this stick that build upon one another and develop throughout this three hour smoke.




Most people believe that Habanos are always better than the copies made in the Dominican Republic or other cigar making countries. This Montecristo was actually a bit of a letdown. Try the White Series for a more enjoyable experience.


A smooth and creamy smoke. Mild and and enjoyable but not exploding with flavor and complexity.

Yes, it is flavored. It smells and tastes like chocolate and coffee. But if you aren't feeling snobbish and you have limited time, this is a tasty smoke.

This is one of those bands that represents many cigars. This one is a classic.
