Cuban Stock Cigars: Chubbys 3.4.5

Cuban Stock Cigars: Chubbys 3.4.5

I have been smoking Cuban Stock's for a couple of years now and have yet to run across on I didn't like and the Chubbys didn't disappoint me. To sum it up, the Cuban Stock Cigars Chubbys 3.4.5 pack a big punch for a short, stout stick!

Quick Details
  • Cigar Size: 4 x 60
  • Origin: Dominican Republic
  • Wrapper:  Natural
  • Binder: Dominican
  • Filler: Dominican
  • Price: $6.00 Online
Construction: Opening the bright red box was a rewarding experience; inside were 20 neatly packed cigars with a red and gold band around the neck and foot. Examining the first cigar I found it to be firm, well packed and the wrapper was nearly free from veins. The cold aroma from the foot was a mild mix of hay and tobacco. Once the cap was clipped, I found the draw to be free with notes of sweet berries.

Smoking Experience: Once the foot was toasted, the flame jumped from my lighter to the cigar and we were off. Again the draw was free and easy and the first puffs had a nice light oak flavoring. The cigar also produced a good amount of smoke with a tobacco, oak mix for the aroma.

After the first quarter inch, the flavor shifted to more of an earthy mix, but there was still a hint of sweet berries.

Near the mid point the earth and oak had traded places in the flavor mix and the berry sweetness increased a bit more.

For the final third the flavor profile stayed about the same but the body continued to get stronger. In the first third I would call this cigar medium-full bodied but in the final third it's a full bodied cigar. The ash held until the final third.

Final Thoughts: For those of you that follow my reviews, you know that 60 ring cigars and I don't always get along well together, but once again I had no issues with this cigar, or any other Cuban Stock Cigars, 60 ring tunneling. That shows me just how well these cigars are made.

The Chubbys is another high quality cigar from Cuban Stock Cigars. I really enjoyed this short, stout little bomb-shell and it would make a great addition to any humidor!

Eight O'Clock Coffee The Original

This sample of Eight O'Clock Coffee , "The Original", came right off the supermarket shelf the other day. It's a medium roast blend that included a large volume of broken and partial beans. Actually, I was surprised by the volume of broken beans as I poured each sample into the grinder. When the bag was opened, to the nose there were rich aromas of toast and coffee, while the pour-over aromas were a mix of cocoa and warm bread. I brewed and sampled four cups of The Original to be sure of my tasting notes. On the Eight O'Clock web site they list this coffee as "sweet, fruity and well balanced." Like most other coffee reviews that's not exactly what I found. In my samples there were semi-sweet flavors of toast, nuts and earth, with a hint of cocoa as the coffee cooled. I found the coffee clean and well balanced with a medium bodied, slightly dry mouth feel. Overall, The Original, from Eight O'Clock coffee brewed a flavorful rewarding cup

Tryst No. 2 Robusto Brandy E-Cigar

Featuring e-juice made in the USA, these  Tryst  e-cigars are a pretty sweet deal. The No. 2 Robusto Brandy is another great example of a cigarette alternative that give me cigar-like satisfaction indoors or wherever I can't smoke a real cigar. Like the last Tryst reviews, I've been puffing on the No. 2 the past two days while writing. Other than its brandy flavor, this Brandy model is just like the the other No. 2's. The tapered head makes it easy to hold hands-free between your teeth, the wrapper is durable showing no signs of wear, it produces a large volume of vapor and the brandy flavored e-juice tastes fantastic.  You probably know I'm not much of a flavored cigar person, but these American made e-juices from Tryst have fantastic flavor, this brandy is really close to tasting like brandy. I've tried other flavored e-cigarette products in the past and the flavors don't compare at all to the Tryst e-cigar flavors. Add together the great taste, the
