American Cigars Go International - Now Tim is SCARED!
In America, we smoke more cigars than the rest of the world combined... by A LOT. However, there's a newer trend going on in the world of cigars that will bring America's 'New World' Cigars to the whole globe. Cigar Makers from Nicaragua, Honduras, and The Dominican Republic have begun placing their cigars in shops across Europe and the rest of the world. It's great news if you live outside the US. But with cigars shops in the States constantly working to overcome vendor supply chain issues, what impact will the international distribution of cigars have on that American market?
In this video, Aganorsa Leaf's Fabian Ziegler explains why more and more cigars are headed abroad, and what that means if you live in the USA.

Fall into Flavor: Exceptional Cigars for the Halloween Season
Every year I get lots of questions about which cigars I recommend for Halloween. Sometimes I get the sense that people want me to recommend cigars with spooky names, like 'The Vampire's Viso Oscuro' (not a real cigar, but not a terrible name either) or something like that. Truthfully, this is the season where I'm most likely to recommend some cigars over others. But mostly, they're cigars that match the changing weather.
As the temperature starts to drop, and the evenings become 'perfect weather', I start looking for cigars that offer a more stout experience. In this video, I'll take you through 6 cigars that are tailored for the cooler weather. These blends offer a bolder experience with explosive flavor.

Southern Draw Cedrus Cigar Review
Southern Draw's Cedrus is a bit of a horse of a different color. Cigars today are made mostly of leaves from Nicaragua, Honduras, and the Dominican Republic. Even more exotic blends use leaves from Brazil or Costa Rica. But not the Cedrus. This cigar touts a dark leathery Indonesian Besuki wrapper over Habano 2000 and Nicaraguan binders and fillers. If the wrapper leaf offers a bulk of the cigars flavor (as it often does), this cigar should produce a unique experience with Southern Draw's patented balanced flavor profile. And the only way to find out is with a cut and a light.
