Name: My Father The Judge
Country: Nicaragua
Size: Toro (6 inches x 56)
Strength: Medium to Full
Excellent. I really enjoyed smoking My Father The Judge. Great construction, great draw, and an even burn all the way. I paired the first half with a 12-year-old Scotch and the second half with a bourbon. I was satisfied with my choices.
Name: Mosh Gorilla
Country: Dominican Republic
Shape: Parejo
Size: Toro (5 9/10 inches x 56)
Strength: Medium to Full
Affordable, undemanding, fun. I liked the Gorilla branding. But the construction wasn’t perfect.
Although I did not love this cigar, I had a fun experience smoking it. Overall, I’d say it was okay, and I wouldn’t mind smoking it again.
I paired this one with espresso and sparkling water and smoked it until there was nothing left of it.
Name: Arturo Fuente Don Carlos Belicoso
Country: Dominican Republic
Shape: Belicoso
Size: (5 3/8 inches x 52)
Strength: Medium
I burned this cigar at a cigar lounge in Yerevan. They didn’t have a wide variety of cigars, but they did have Arturo Fuente lines on display. And that’s usually enough to make a cigar lounge a good one. The place was almost empty, but it turned out to be an evening well spent with an old friend. He was new to cigars, so after catching up, I gave him a crash course: how to cut and light a cigar, how to smoke a cigar, how to pick a cigar, and so on…
The Don Carlos burned wonderfully. I paired the first third with espresso, the second third with a glass a peated whisky, and the last third with water. Everything was great.
