Wet Shaving with Stogie Dude
1
Posted on: January 05, 2012
If you haven’t noticed, its been miserably cold out on the east coast. That means I’m not smoking many cigars unless I actually go somewhere like a shop to smoke, which I generally don’t do. So to keep content fresh on Stogie Dude’s Cigar Reviews, I figured I would post some articles about Wet Shaving with a safety razor, brush, and high quality creams. I’ll post reviews of creams, blades and what works best for me. I will also be posting some tutorials and how-to shaving 101 like posts for those interested in trying wet shaving with a safety razor.

Wrapper: Connecticut Ecuador Binder: Habano Seed Nicaraguan Filler: Nicaragua, Honduras, Mexico This particular CAO Black Bengal cigar has been sitting in my humidor for a month or so now.

Removing the cedar wrap and smelling I’m getting hints of mocha or chocolate of some sort among some expected pepper and spice...

Rocky Patel Connecticut

Posted on: November 22, 2011
This is one promising looking cigar and lately Rocky Patel Cigars have been really hyped up, so I’m eager to see how the Connecticut Churchill weighs in. I’ve had the Rocky Patel Vintage 1990 and it was great so I’m looking forward to this. Origin: Honduras Wrapper: Connecticut  Pre-lit: Very strong cedar smell, feels mostly firm packed and consistent all the way through, cut very easily and un-lit draw off this cigar was perfect. The un-lit draw had a very tobacco, wood, and cedar taste. So far so good. First Third: A punch right to the face on what I was expecting as a...

Where to start with this beautiful Cohiba cigar? It’s an expensive stogie, but is it worth it?   Lets see what Cohiba has to say about it’s Toro Tubo: “The result of five intense years of research, the famous Cohiba brand is now available in limited quantities in the US market. This exquisite smoke offers a medium-bodied flavor and a strong, smooth and incredibly rich character. Handmade with a toothy Cameroon wrapper and aged mixture of Dominican-grown Piloto Cubano tobaccos.”   Starting at the top the Cohiba Toro Tubo is very modern packaged in Cohibas...
