Bonita Smoke Shop Value House Blend Maduro

Posted in Cigars, My Pics with tags , , , , , , , , , on April 6, 2011 by matt

The month of April is a month that is filled with many memories for me and seeing as it is my birth month I’ve decided to set the theme for this month’s posts as “favorites”.  These posts will be filled with my “go to” cigars, they may not be glamorous but they are for one reason or another cigars that I tend to smoke often due to them being my favorite.  With the stage set in no particular order this is my first “favorite” or “go to” cigar.

Almost a year ago I made my first trip back to Florida to visit friends and family.  During this trip I made a journey to Bonita Springs with Tom and Reggie to visit Bonita Smoke Shop.  While there I took advantage of the opportunity to pick up some of cigars from their Value House Blend line, little did I know I would find what would become one of my favorite cigars, the Bonita Smoke Shop Value House Blend Maduro No. 3.

Tatuaje Avion

Posted in Cigars with tags , , , , , , , , , , , , , , on March 12, 2011 by matt

Another cigar that has popped up on the radar in trademark searches and on the internet is the Tatuaje Avion.  The Avion is meant to be a yearly limited production spin-off of the Fausto.  The Avion is slated to always be a box-pressed perfecto with the size being 5 3/4 x 48/52 this year and an additional size (5 3/4 x 48/52) added next year.  This blend is supposed to be the same as the T110 and production numbers under 30,000.

Info

Cigar: Tatuaje Avion
Wrapper: Ecuador Habano Maduro
Binder: Nicaragua
Filler: Nicaragua
Translation: The English translation of Avion is airplane.
Additional Info: Blend is the same as the T110

Yesterday Pete decided to share a mockup of the Avion band with us on twitter.
