Tatuaje SODO!!!

This is a cigar made exclusively for J & J Cigars shop by Pete Johnson. The cigar starts off with little bit of spice and tons of coco flavors. The spice goes away after about 2 inches into the cigar, but coco and woodsy taste remain. The last third of the cigars, it changes up on you into flavors of tea, flora and honey. Another master job by our friend Pete Johnson!

Special Thanks, Tat Black and the Drac!

The Pete Johnson Cigar Event last Friday was a great success! I like to thank all who attended for making this the best event ever, since the store's inception. I like to especially thank Pete for flying up here just for one day to attend my event, for Rick at Big "E" Ales for supplying his great beers. Last but not least, Josh at Lit for being a true brother of the leaf.

The photos for this event will be posted on a later date. However, when Pete came up here, he brought some of his new cigars for us to smoke. I've smoked the new Tat Black and it was unbelievable! But what got me was the the Drac, which will be released on Halloween. I knew the new Tat Black will be phenomenal, but the the Drac is right up there!

It started off with flavors of raisins, liquorices and earthiness and then it changed on you with flavors of coco/chocolate and leather. It was Phenomenal cigar! I can not wait to get it in my store for this Halloween!!

Epernay Le Elegance review

Like I promised, here is my review of this fantastic cigar. First of all, these cigars come in four sizes and the taste profile of each cigar is very different.

The cigar that I'm reviewing today is called Le Elegance and it is 5 3/4" X 40 ring gauge. These are all Nicaraguan puros and the construction of these cigars are impeccable. The cigar starts off with taste of pepper and hint of cedar. As you smoke it through, you get floral, honey and citrus flavors. This is a very complex cigar and the smoke texture is very creamy. Like it's name, this is very ELEGANT smoke.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

Epernays are here!!

These great cigars come in four sizes and are available at my shop. I'm going to post my cigar review on this separately, but it is a medium strength cigar with full rich flavors. Overall profile is that it is creamy, smooth and very elegant smoke( more detailed review coming soon).

This is a new line of cigars from Dion Giolito, the creator of highly sought after Illusione Cigars. According to Dion, this is an off shoot of his ECCJ line. It is a Nicaraguan puro, rolled in Honduras.

After April, I cannot get them until IPCPR show in summer. COME AND GET THEM WHILE IT LAST, BECAUSE IT WILL FLY OFF THE SHELF!
