Happy Birthday to Me, a gift of CLE Corojo!

On November 28th, I turned 43.  Interestingly enough, I did not start smoking cigars until I was 27, and now enjoy about a cigar a day.

I was very happy to receive a 4-pack of Rocky Patel edge from light to maduro, a RP Vintage, an Illusione but the treat of the gifts came in a little known cigar called CLE Corojo!

This medium brown stick is one of the latest offerings from Christin Eiroa's new company CLE Cigars.  I visited the website and enjoyed some beautiful pics of their cigar farm in Honduras.

This all Honduran cigar may not be the most elegant thing to look at, but right from the first puff, I was thoroughly impressed.  Lots of spice and flavor, that had some sweetness as well to balance it out.  Barely 1/3rd of the way through some nice oak and cedar flavors began to step up, and stay with the smoke the rest of the way.

The draw was easy, the flavor was so good, if I hadn't just had an Italian Sweet Sausage sandwich with peppers, I'd probably be looking for a nice steak to eat.  I enjoyed it while drinking a Fosters premium ale, and felt each sip made both taste better.

Produced in limited quantities, this choice, even on Cigars International will cost you a little more than your average purchase.  A box of 25 Robusto's will cost about $133, and in my opinion, well worth the price.

On a birthday where gifts included well known Bourbon, Cigars and accessories (so glad my people know me so well!) this little CLE won top honors, and should be part of your humidor as well.

This blog will serve to promote our custom cigar band rings page.  To do so, we will blog about all things cigars, and the unmatched enjoyment of smoking premium cigars.

As an avid smoker myself, I have always enjoyed carefully peeling the cigar bands and (thanks to my slender fingers), slipping them on my finger which appears like a ring.

Many times people would comment about how good they looked, and that cigar band rings would be a great way to show off your favorite smoke.  This led me to work with a master-jeweler here in south Florida to explore this idea further.

After many attempts, and many ruined bands, we came up with a process that uses the actual paper cigar band, to create a beautiful custom ring.

As you can see, the results are amazing.  Whether you go with with gold, or in sterling silver, these rings make a dramatic statement, whenever you light up.

Now you can enjoy your favorite cigar while displaying these beautiful rings on your hand.  Visit our page at www.customcigarbandrings.com for your free quote.  We look forward to hearing from you.
