Back to the Basics - Rosado or Sun Grown?
Women want to know - women are fascinated by the ins and outs of the cigar. We have a deep desire to know what we smoke. And contrary to what most would believe, we won't settle for being led to the "Flavored Cigarillo Section" of the B&M!
Solet's get back to the basics - we need to help a sistah out when she has a few... Read More |

Cigar Trivia - from this Woman to U! |
| 6/22/2008 9:54:36 PM |
Did U Know.....

If a Cigar Manufacturer likes some characteristics of one strain, and some from another, they will cross-pollinate them to create a new... Read More with Video |

The housekeeper is a voluptuous woman in a low-cut dress who graces the center of the ad. Images to the right and left show her pinning a flower to a man's lapel and stooping provocatively to light his cigar. The message is unmistakably sexual; the buxom housekeeper, like the cigar by that name, caters to your... Read More |

The Future of the Cigar is Bright Cigar Women! |
| 5/26/2008 8:36:10 PM |
The future according to the bible Perelman’s Pocket Cyclopedia of Cigars
Cigar sales are up, perhaps as smokers from the Cigar Boom have come back in a more mature way, or perhaps as a segment of cigarette smokers change to cigars. The future is bright, with more and better tobacco available, but difficult legislative challenges are keeping smokers from enjoying cigars... Read MoreDon Pepin Garcia Black is the newest, and most affordable blend in the Don Pepin line. The full-bodied ‘Cuban Classic’ is crafted in Pepin’s recently opened factory in Esteli, Nicaragua. His famous Corojo ’99 wrapper surrounds an all-Nicaraguan binder and filler tobaccos to create a spicy, bold smoke. Its flavor has hints of cedar and coffee with a complex, rich aroma. The Master Blender Don Pepin Garcia once again exhibits his skill in producing some of the finest quality cigars off the ‘island’  |

Vince Curatola Paperboy to the Stars?
Celebrity and cigars seem to go hand in hand, which to me, is no wonder. I've always viewed my love of the cigar to have a link with luxury. In other words, cigars are directly associated as a love for the finer things in life. I also believe the reasons attributing to the individual's taste and purpose behind their love of the cigar,...

Image of the Cigar Woman - is there middle ground? |
| 4/27/2008 11:02:25 PM |
So who is she?
I've always said the face of the Cigar Woman is diverse, and there is no one descriptive catagory in which she fits. Professional and refined; wife, mother and best friend; or vixen, saucy and sensual?
The challenge before me is how do I unite the many faces into one, or do I? Do I keep the identities separate and apart, or do I facilitate a middle ground...
