It’s the first day of December tomorrow and guess what? Christmas is almost here!

If you are still looking for the perfect Christmas present for your cigar loving buddies, why not shop around for great deals? Many online (and offline) stores are offering Christmas promos. I plan on sniffing around for good ...
How do you like your cigar? If you are just like the average cigar smoker, then you probably smoke cigars that are anywhere from 4 to 7 inches long. You might be considered exceptional if you always smoke the 9 inchers. But take a look at this Big Daddy of cigars, recently featured at a cigar show in Bulgaria. UPI has this report:
One of the stars of a cigar-rolling demonstration Friday in the Bulgarian capital of Sofia was a cigar measuring nearly 22 inches in ...
When a manufacturer comes up with a new cigar blend, there is no doubt that packaging is taken into consideration. This actually applies to almost any other kind of product. Experts in the field of marketing know that how you package a product can affect how it is perceived by customers.
For cigars, packaging can affect the price. Cigar.com talked about this earlier this year:
Many brands have extravagant packaging, most of which are very expensive. So exactly how much does the packaging affect ...
I do! I do! It is no secret that I am a big cigar enthusiast but I think that it is such a sweet coincidence that a cigar manufacturer is giving away one of my favorite cars. Nub Cigars was launched in April of this year and has since then been aggressively promoting their brand. As part of this aggressive promotional strategy, they are giving away a BMW 2008 Mini Cooper S convertible!
The Cigar Aficionados recently ran this feature:
Since launching Nub cigars on April ...
When you buy cigars, how many do you buy at a time? I personally buy at least a bundle at a time only because I do not like having to keep going back to the shop when I need or want a cigar. I have to admit that sometimes, though, I buy only one. This is especially true when I am out of the house and I forget to bring a cigar with me. This can also happen when I am short of cash and ...

There is more to the cigar than smoking one – any self-respecting cigar enthusiast knows that. And one thing that you have to pay careful attention to when lighting your cigar is your lighter. There are lighters and there are lighters. With cigars, it is best to use butane lighters. They are not that expensive anyway but provide a good burn. But sometimes, they break down. You might think that it’s easy enough to buy one but why not make the life your ...
They say that smoking will be the death of avid smokers but more often than not, it is meant figuratively. In the case of John Henry James, however, the saying became literal when a lit cigar was left untended in his study. The study was full of papers, books, and other flammable materials – practically a tinderbox! John Henry James, 64 years of age, used to be a show jumping champion and was known to smoke 20 cigars a day. Firefighters immediately responded to ...
