Apparently, when the new and improved blends of certain cigars release date was said to be November, guess they meant Nov. of next year.

I thought the DPG event at Cigar Inn was next Saturday (the 12th).

I also enjoy text reviews more than videos.

Amen, Dave. A-fucking-men.

Watching some uncharismatic guy smoke a cigar for 20 minutes is slow torture. I know videos are big, but something like a cigar review is so much better suited to the written word.

I think the video review phenomenon (if you can call it that) is somewhat of a product of laziness. Laziness on the part of those who make them, who can’t be bothered to script anything out or put together a string of decent sentences. And laziness on the part of those who watch them, who can’t be bothered to read.

To each his own. I’m glad there’s variety when it comes to cigar websites, and I’m glad for StogieGuys.com.

I like these Friday samplers, and even more so I like the format here. Am I the only one who doesn’t appreciate this growing trend of video reviews?
