The only reason to step out into the cold of the snow and sleet is to smoke a Cigar!


The Cohiba Esplendido - top of the line Habano in my view.

Sturdy, well constructed smoke - typical of a Cuban - even burn, check out the ash - white and holds on until you delicately remove it! I've yet to see how long the ash will stay on - would be an experiment I suppose.

Smooth, medium smoke - a slight "Cuban Twang" - but doesn't leave an after taste on my palate. Earthy tones with a rich mahogany flavor, is the best I could describe it - meaning, no sweetness, rich and woody without a recognized coffee flavor. The smoke remained consistent throughout strengthening slightly at the third quarter.

I still have a couple well hidden in my humi - the tobacconists advise to age this cigar and see how it smokes after a period of time!

While out of town, I smoked up most of my collection - so letting this puppy sit for awhile won't be a problem!

All in all this is a top rated smoke - My preference as a Woman who smokes cigars, I would smoke something with the sweetness of the Cameroon - but the Cohiba Esplendido - I would recommend to the lovers of the Habanos.

Damsel - "Cigar Woman" and the debut of my first Cigar Review on Social Cigar!

Camacho Cigars has a new website! I think its up to date, modern and reflects the New Age Cigar Enthusionado(a). Everyone's very own Guru Cigar Jack gives us his wise impression on Camacho's new site.

Camacho has been very excited about their new website and have been asking me what I thought and how it stacked up against other manufacturers. So to keep Dylan off my case I thought I’d go ahead and check out their site this week.

The great thing about CJ's web site reviews is that he gives us an unbiased opinion with both the good points and his take on what improvements he thinks should be made! Once again, great review Jesse...

My suggestion is take a look yourself, and just as a good cigar is great for some, might not be the same for another!

It wouldn't be a Weekend with the Cigar Woman without checking in with my guys at StogieGuys

This is a weekend for the Cohiba! - Patrick's Quick Smoke: Cohiba Siglo I (Cuban)


Patrick A. thought it packed a "full, deceptive spice into a short format that’s perfect for mid-afternoon breaks." At $8.60 per stick, he thought the finish was a little hot for his liking and would rather take his time with a larger, smoother size from this famed Cohiba line. Patrick's Verdict, Hold this cigar!

Well, that's the Weekend with me...the Cigar Woman aka Damsel....
