"Cuban seed tobaccos grown in Nicaragua and Cuba. The wrapper would be from Cuba. The binder leaves would be from Nicaragua. For the ligero tobacco in the filler, he would use two types, one from Esteli and the other from Jalapa in Nicaragua. The other filler components, seco and viso, would come from Cuba, the former from Villa Clara, the latter from Pinar del Rio. That Cigar, he says with pride, would score 100 points." -Don Pepin Garcia

This evening I have another Arganese cigar. This one, a Maduro President Robusto is quite tasty with overtones of leather and spice. Strong enough to allow me to enjoy the flavor of the smoke, yet mild enough to allow me to blow smoke through my nose to fully appreciate the flavor of the cigar.
Thank you Gene Arganese for allowing me to try these cigars.
Doc ***** Tobacco is a filthy weed, I like it...

Hey Doc, how did you come about getting the trial samples from Gene? Or have you been sworn to secrecy?

Those of you who live in the tropics will not appreciate the following, but my fellow northeners will: I HAD MY FIRST CIGAR ON THE DECK TODAY! Hooray--the "season" has officially begun.
By the way--Hoyo de Monterrey.

"Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming--Wow--What a ride!!"
