A Cigar You Should Be Smoking

So here is a cigar that we have carried since the beginning. It's a little know brand, but loaded with flavor. Hand rolled in Nicaragua by the Hugo Cassar Company.


This is their Hugito, little Hugo. Only 3.75 inches by 50 ring gauge.


From Nicaragua, Ecuadorian Sumatra wrapper.
Nose: Hay, light spice


Cold draw: Hay, sweet tobacco, draw is slightly tightened


Roll: Very smooth and straight, light veins, Cuban trademark green spots.
First light: Toasted corn, bread, nicotine on the back of the tongue.


1st half: Toasted bread, white pepper, nicotine long white ash, light tannic green notes.


2nd half: Sweet tobacco, light wood and bread notes.
Very nice short smoke, LONG stable ash, very high quality roll backed by years of experience for Hugo Cassar!

Another Milestone, Over 100 Different Cigars!!

As you may or may not know, I started planning this business in August of 2013. I didn't open my door (yes, single) until October 2014. When I opened I has approximately 15 different cigars, 5 pipes, some accessories, and 3 different types of pipe tobacco. I was set up in a small 10 x 20 space at the bell county flea market, not knowing if anyone was going to stop in. And for a few weeks, they didn't.

Those are humble beginnings.





I am pleased to post this sign:


 We now have over 100 different premium cigars in our walk in humidor. I know this may not compare to alot of larger stores, but it's a significant mile stone for us.
We started out with just 15 different cigars. And in only 9 months, have expanded our cigar inventory almost 10 fold!
We sincerely thank all of our customers for your support and keeping our business alive!
