Stogie Guys Friday Sampler LXVI

19 Oct 2007

In our ongoing effort to make StogieGuys.com as entertaining and reader-friendly as possible, each Friday we’ll post a selection of quick cigar news and stogie-related snippets. We call ‘em Friday Samplers. Enjoy.

Arganese Sampler1) The House couldn’t muster enough votes yesterday to override SCHIP, a health insurance program for children from families who earn annual incomes at double the poverty level. The bill would have cost an additional $35 billion over the next five years, financed by hefty increases in federal tobacco taxes. Despite the fact that it would devastate much poorer children from cigar-producing countries such as Nicaragua, Honduras, and the Dominican Republic, Democrats on Capitol Hill have vowed revisions and promise to send Bush “another measure in two weeks of similar size and scope.”

2) With one remaining spot left to fill on Sunday, today is the last to submit a Quick Smoke for our five-week Cigar Giveaway Contest. Previous winners include Dustin from New Hampshire, Kevin from Florida, George from Wisconsin, and Eric from Arizona – each of whom will receive a three-pack sampler from Arganese Cigars (pictured at right).

3) Around the Blogs: Cigar Inspector inspects an Ashton Esquire. Matt smokes a Fonseca No. 1. Cigar Command fires up a Casa Toraño Maduro. Cigar Beat and Keepers of the Flame review Don Lino Africas. Stogie Review has an Arganese Ambassador. Cigar Jack enjoys 5 Vegas Series A.

4) Deal of the Week: We aren’t exactly sure why this is called the “Fall Sampler,” but we do know that with ten sticks for $19.99 this is a fantastic deal. With cigars from CAO, Camacho, H. Upmann, and Don “Pepin” Garcia, these are fantastic cigars at a fantastic price. Grab yours here.

    I think we'll be able to hold off SCHIP for now, but once Bush leaves office there's going to be problems — especially since the next president is likely a Dem.
