Caldwell Cigar Company - Yellow Cake 2025 Corona
Sawdust floor sweepings
Robert my man, I literally cut my teeth on your brands. This was a slap in face. All of em plugged. Split one open to find legit dust packed tight with bs chop filler that makes a drew estate factory smoke look good. Dude wtf

Seattle Pipe Club - Plum Pudding Robusto
I’ve seen better construction on my local highway
Well it was worth a shot. After resting for about a month and a half, I chose a fine afternoon on the back porch to relax. Only it was anything but relaxing. Upon cutting the cap, a nice cracking sound left me puzzled, as there was no visible cracks in the cigar. Yet. The test draw was akin to sucking a malt milkshake through a cocktail straw. After a careful use of my perfect draw tool, it opened up to an acceptable level. The real party began at light up. So that crack that I couldn’t find, it found me. The entire wrapper ruptured like the San Andres fault line. And that was the end of that. At this point I had to know what lurked inside. The driest what I’m assuming to be perique granules were spread through the cigar like coffee grounds. Filler leaves bunch so tightly that I would have assumed the hulk had tried his hand at rolling. Anyway, maybe I’ll try another down the road. Maybe I’ll just stick to the pipe blend. Hope yours is a better experience.

Warped - Scarecrow 2oz
Perfect right out of the tin!
Very pleasant and subtle candy “corn” flavor and aroma. Base blend is something akin to Briar Fox. Sweet bright middle Virginias rounded out by more bold burley. A slight Haunted Bookshop mustiness lingers in the background. Finish is slightly waxy and sweet. Perfect moisture right out of the tin as well. Smoked from a MM country gentleman no filter*

Iwan Ries - Three Star Blue 7oz
Ahhh relaxing
Highly recommended for a carefree no fuss smoke. Air it out for a few minutes and pack. Sit down and enjoy. This blend requires no effort. It can get a little hot just like any blend. I’ll be keeping this on hand at all times.

BriarWorks - Country Lawyer 2oz
Solid cigar leaf blend
Took a couple of bowls to get aquatinted, but by the third it was perfect. Great balance of cigar leaf in this blend. It’s just the right amount. IMO. That hint of KFC is a nice touch as well. The jar is a welcomed plus and added value.

Cornell & Diehl - Steamworks 2oz
Virginia Out On The Bayou
Virginias base the blend with their hearty flavor and robust texture. While the aged orientals add a lighter color and citrus to the mix. The perique then builds, adding depth and its own texture. Wonderfully inconsistent, this blend is. With perfect moisture right out of the tin I might add. Thick she is, oh so thick!
