Cigar enthusiasts have good reason to be excited.  A new boutique cigar manufacturer Baracoa Cigar Company is set to release their first line, with a full dedication to providing the highest levels of quality and service.  The company has celebrated their debut, with the release of “The Voyage” a premium hand rolled cigar manufactured by La Aurora factory using some of the finest tobacco available.

 Many people would argue a great cigar is one of life's true pleasures.  In fact, in the Americas it's a tradition that has begun even before the United States saw its first day.  This makes the expectations of quality among American cigar smokers quite high and their passion for cigars close to unmatched.  Stepping up to answer this call is the Maryland-based, Baracoa Cigar Company, a new boutique cigar manufacturer who recently announced their launch of their first brand, after years of research, trial and preparation.  The brand celebrated their launch with the announcement that their first cigar “The Voyage”, an expertly hand crafted cigar, which is already the subject of passionate discussion, for its combination of quality and very attractive price point.

 “I am excited to finally be able to share with you, what my passion for this industry has lead me to create,” commented Danny Vazquez, Founder of Baracoa Cigar Company.  “This cigar has been a long time in the making, and I am hoping to be able to make this an everyday cigar for you.  We believe in our slogan 'Never Settle' 100% and we hope our customers do too.”

“The Voyage” will be released in a 5x50 Robusto and a 5 ½ x 54 Toro vitola, sold in boxes of 20.  It features a 2011 Dominican Corojo wrapper. Ecuadorian binder, Nicaraguan and Dominican filler and is hand rolled at the La Aurora factory in the Dominican Republic.

According to Vazquez, the name of “The Voyage” was inspired by the adventures and attitude of Christopher Columbus himself. 

Vazquez remarked, “In 1492 Christopher Columbus set out to change the world, by defying conventional thinking and believing that earth was round, and that he could find new travel routes around the globe.  Along his journey he landed on the east coast of Cuba, where the city of what is now known today as Baracoa, stands proudly today.  This cigar was created, not to acknowledge the discovery of the new world, but to celebrate the courage it took to take that Voyage and defy the odds. Which is exactly my experience in diving in to the cigar industry.  So I ask you to take 'The Voyage' and discover Baracoa Cigar Company.  Our mission is to NEVER SETTLE, especially when others claim it can't be done.”

This drive is off to a strong start with “The Voyage” receiving very enthusiastic early feedback.

Amazing Camacho Facebook Post

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
