Big Al's Cigar Blog

Here you will find honest reviews about the cigars that I bought myself and smoked myself.  I like to enjoy a fine cigar 3 to 4 times a week, late at night, sipping on some fine bourbon or tequila.  I've been smoking cigars for over 20 years and I try to be unbiased and honest in my reviews.  You can't trust most of the reviews on the internet or posted on most retailer's websites.  I don't really care if some guy tastes every flavor of the dessert buffet on some crappy cigar.  I want to know if it was an enjoyable cigar that satisfied you and you want to smoke another one.  That's what I try to give you.   <script async src="https://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-9914815924126887"      crossorigin="anonymous"></script>

 Monticristo White Series Double Corona cigar review  11/8/24 Been at least 2 years since I've smoked one of these. I think I got this one from a 3 pack that I got from a sampler. I remember it nice and smooth and very good flavor.   Hey I do like that it is all fancily wrapped and I can easily slip off the bottom band and the big ass middle band has already been slightly opened at each end to help you tear all that damn packaging off the cigar.  Alright, how does it smoke? Right away. Pretty damn good. First inch is very smooth and mellow but a good medium body. It does have aftertastes of cedar and fruity flavors.  I'm not going to lie. This is a damn good cigar.  I can pull it hard and it delivers plenty of clouds of smoke.  It's still medium. Maybe lighter flavors now but still good flavors are apparent. No wind out tonight.  It's 65 and awesome t shirt weather.  Can't get better smoking weather.   Getting close to the middle and it's smoking good and not to

 Had this one like maybe 2 years aging.  I don't even remember where I got this one but I have been saving it to age and I about forgot about it.   I'm expecting a strong smoke on this Saturday night.  I'll probably be biased if this is a mild smoke tonight.   First inch is nice and smooth.  I'd say a good medium smoke.  I was drinking some fine rum but now sipping on a Modelo Negra.  This cigar is very mellow in flavor.  Lots of cedar and very slight sweet toffee on top of a slightly dry taste.  It's pretty good so far.  If it can keep it's smoothness and strengthen that toffee and rich tobacco taste I think this can be great.  Finally flicked the ash.  Slight cone and it's pulling clouds of smoke.  Yeah it was rolled perfect.   It's definitely picking up strength not only in power but adding so straight in flavors.   Damn it smoking way too quick.  I got to take the band off before i finish my first beer.   It's definitely a good easy smoking cigar
