Romeo y Julieta House of Montague Toro

If my memory is working correctly, the Romeo y Julieta House of Montague Toro is the first RyJ maduro that I've reviewed and I thought it was a great cigar.

This Famous Smoke Shop exclusive starts out with fantastic construction. Feeling down the body, the cigar is packed well full length, and it's covered with a toothy, oily, Brazilian Maduro wrapper. The wrapper is rolled on with seamless care, it has only fine veins and the cigar is topped off with a triple cap.

Checking the cold aromas and draw, from the foot notes of fruity fermented tobacco hit your nose, while the free draw tastes liked spiced, fermented tree fruit.

The first draws from the burning cigar are mild bodied with mixed flavors of cocoa and toast. A very tasty opening statement in my opinion. As the sharp burn line moves up the body there are added nuances of coffee, leather, earth and charcoal.

After seventy-five minutes the House of Montague Toro moves into the medium body range and finishes its great burn with my favorite "burnt mocha" flavor mix. Burnt mocha is my name for a flavor mix of cream, chocolate and charcoal.

Overall I really enjoyed this cigar for its flavor mix, construction and burn time. These Romeo y Julieta House of Montague Toros can be found online at Famous-smoke.com. They are available as singles, in 5 and 10 packs or by the box of 20. A box of 20 sells for $82.99, that's just $4.15 per stick, a steal on this cigar!

I was truly humbled to see this Camacho Cigars Facebook post yesterday. Thank you!

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
