For the 2010 rendition of this concept, click here to see Brian Hewitt’s work. Before anyone starts, I started this long before Bill Berris posted his rendition of this a few days at Cigar Snapshot. (Bill’s serves as a interesting sample of this, although there are noticeable differences beyond population size.) The concept was simple, [...]

For those of you that don’t know… Introduced at the IPCPR Show last month, the Room 101 Namakubi made a splash, not just for it’s interesting name origins (below), but also for it’s box design.

Who said April was a slow cigar news month? After the jump is a massive news post with perhaps more release announcements than any other week besides IPCPR. I’m not sure what’s going on in the middle of May, but there sure are a lot of cigars coming out then. Anyways, after the jump, Viaje, [...]
