Enjoy A Cigar Where It's Not Allowed, The Don E-Cigar From Smoker Stax: Quick Review

First, I need to clarify, I am not looking for a cigar replacement, however I am looking for a cigarette replacement. With that in mind I've actually used The Don E-Cigar from Smoker Stax quite a bit more than anticipated. In fact, I'm puffing on it right now as I sit here writing this review.

"The Don" has a simulated maduro wrapper, in real life it's a bit light in color, but it gets the job done nicely. That brings up a major point. It's amazing how durable this wrapper material is, I've been chewing on it for a couple of days now and there are absolutely no signs of wear. The e-cigar is balanced, meaning it can be held in your mouth hands free, (I couldn't do that with my last e-cig). It creates a nice volume of vapor--enough for vapor rings--there's no gurgling inside from excessive trapped moisture, no over heating and there's a cool red light in the foot that comes on when you puff.

Flavor wise, in my opinion it has the faint taste of a maduro cigar, it's more like smoky molasses, but hey, it tastes darn good. It tastes enough like a cigar that I've been grabbing it to puff on when there isn't time for a cigar. That translates into a lot more use than anticipated plus I can lay it down anywhere with out worrying scorching something.

Smoker Stax, says it's good for 1800 puffs, which I am not really testing, I'll leave that for a machine to count, I have puff counted cigarettes though. At a price of $29.99 per unit for "The Don", I would save $15.00 over the cost of 1800 cigarette puffs. That's a pretty good savings, along with the health benefits and it tastes like a cigar!

Rated 9.5

I would like to thank Smoker Stax for providing these samples for review!

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
