The Drew Estate Double Signature Reserve is a retail-only cigar. This cigar is sold down in Marietta, Georgia at the Tobacco Superstore. From the initial look of this cigar it does look like a sibling to the Drew Estate Liga Privada T52; however the guys at Tobacco Superstore described this more as a “cross between […]

Many people come to me asking me what is the best cigar to buy for a Christmas, Hanukkah, or New Year’s gift. Unfortunately, the first response I give them is what I term the “Standard Consulting Answer” which is “It Depends”… It depends on a few factors. Below I’ve put a table to help […]
I’m a little late with this info, but the dream collaboration between Illusione’s Dion Giolito and Drew Estate’s Jonathan Drew is history. It has been announced that the Illusione Nosotros Cigar is being discontinued. Going into 2010, this collaboration was the buzz throughout the Cigar industry -namely as a result of these two cigar-ebrities teaming […]

Therefore, my concept of doing a Pre-Review is to provide some initial thoughts of a cigar without going as far as to […]
Since I’ve gotten a lot of new sticks at IPCPR that still might require aging or are still in prototypes, I’ve opted to introduce a concept called the “Pre-Review”. I know that isn’t exactly good grammar, but this will allow me to post some initial impressions of cigars that fall into those categories I mention. […]
As with many conferences, often various customer dinners are scheduled. With IPCPR this was no different as many of the Cigar Manufacturers scheduled dinners with the retailers. Obviously there are limited lists of how many retailers could receive invites, so for Stace and myself, we were more than thrilled when it was our names put […]
The booth at IPCPR that got the most buzz was the Drew Estate booth. The company founded by Jonathan Drew is known for doing things in an innovative way with a sense of style. As mentioned in “Tales” Part 6, the company is a reflection of Drew’s personality. When it comes to the rule […]
There were a lot of memories I took back from IPCPR. But perhaps there was no memory that stood out than when I saw a meeting of the minds take place at the Drew Estate Booth. Two giants in the Cigar industry were having a conversation – well maybe more like a summit. The big […]
