Freezing Cold Northwest Cigar Smoker...

I have to admit that the longer winter continues in our region, it gets harder and harder to go outside to enjoy the leaf. With the snow and freezing temperatures, what's a guy gotta do? Until spring arrives and if you're not fortunate enough to smoke inside, there is a remedy. Lately, I've been enjoying smaller sizes like petite coronas and petite robustos that minimize your time outside, but offer maximum amounts of flavor. Here are a few that we currently have in stock at Fine Wine and Cigars:

Petite Coronas:
Ashton Cabinet Tres Corona-Mild $10.50 or $8.93 Club Price
Ashton Aged Maduro #15-Smooth, Medium Bodied $10.00 or $8.51 Club
Ashton VSG Tres Mystique-Full $11.50 or $9.78 Club

Perfecto:
Cuban Stock Joya De Havana Figurado #2 (5"x48)-Full and smooth, 6 year aged Habano wrapper $9.00 or $7.65 Club

Petite Robustos:
Kristoff Sumatra Short Run-Full $8.75, $7.44 Club
My Father Le Bijou-Medium 3/4, full of flavor $8.50 or $7.23 Club
My Father Jaime Garcia Reserva Especial-Dark expressions of earth and coffee, $8.00 or $6.80 Club
A.Turrent Triple Play Puro Maduro-Loaded with flavor, $8.50 or $7.23 Club
Nestor Miranda Special Selection Coffee Break-Blended by Don Pepin Garcia, #25 Cigar of the Year for Cigar Aficionado in 2009 $8.50 or $7.23 Club

It's amazing how much flavor, complexity and strength can be exhibited in smaller cigars that can be enjoyed in a 30-40 minute time span. Although the current trend is for larger and thicker cigars, smaller ring gauges can focus the blend onto your palate and provide a richer smoking experience. While your visiting our humidor, please let us know if we can assist you in finding the aforementioned cigars or anything else you might require.
