Gellman Reviews
Sometimes quirky, but always enjoyable, reading about wonderful Cuban cigars.
I salivate everytime I read the reviews. LOL!
PS: I wish I had tried all of the cigars that he has sampled!

Why do most experienced Isom smokers consider cigars from cabinets to be better than those from boxes?
What's the difference in the actual cigar, if any?
Isn't a cabinet cigar the same as those found in the dress boxes only times two? Yes. No.
Cabinets of 50 usually cost quite a bit more...
Several past issues of Cigar Aficionado have been dedicated to Cuba. Apparently the hotels are modernizing due to the volume of business travelers and tourists from Europe. Restaurants are lagging behind. The dollar is king.
I have read about visiting the cigar factories, seen pictures in the...

I smoked my second one of these today, and darned if I'm not impressed with this brand of Fuente cigars.
Does anybody else like these as much as I seem to?
Spicy. Peppery. Smooth. Nice even burn. Solid ash. Medium strength that gradually gets stronger and spicier as the cigar progresses. The...
Another topic regarding tastes encountered during cigar evaluation/ratings made me think about this question.....
I've heard that many of the older "cigar aficionados" or long-term cigar smokers have stopped heeding reviews completely due to the reviewers' inaccuracy and unbelievable...
BOLIVAR BELICOSOS FINOS
***The cigar is actually a little bigger ring gauge and over and inch longer than it appears in the picture. They are almost the same size as a Montecristo #2.***
I had been gifted one of these last year by one of the Cigar Pass legends (thanks Mr. R) and it blew...
I bought a few 5-pack samplers of the Estevan Cruz cigars off of Cigar Bid.com, when I was going through my bidding/buying mania last year on their site. I had done a little research on this cigar prior to bidding on them. Smoke Magazine rated them very highly. I personally had never heard of...
I bought six of the Carlos Torano 1959 Exodus cigars a few months ago. Last week I came upon them hidden in the Coolerdor and decided to try one. The size was a robusto. The beautiful oily maduro wrapper was really nice tobacco leaf...almost silky in its perfection. Needless to say, these cigars...
I smoked the first, last, and only La Gloria Cubana - Habana cigar that I have ever owned today in honor of Easter. I have had some Miami produced LGC's in the past with 10 years aging which were awesome, but the ISOM version was far superior to even the well aged "domestic" version. It was a...
I ran out of Cohiba Robustos...so I have been forced to subsist on a diet of Partagas PCs and R.A.S.S.
Life is tough, but I make do some how! :sign:

Has anyone traded in their Cigar Aficionado freebie token and tried this cigar yet? I've heard and read that this cigar IS extremely potent - too strong for many full-bodied cigar smokers. Just wondering.
