Greetings Fellow Followers,
Don Juan Cigar Co. and Devil's Weed had three events last week in their stores to launch their exclusive size, called the NOLA. I'll post some pictures of this vitola when I can. It is a 6 by 54 candy-cane (two wrappers that intertwine) that is a blend of the Cab Selection with an additional maduro wrapper. The body is a but fuller and has more toasty sweet notes. Everyone seemed to enjoy the blend and they loved the dimensions (as you know we don't have anything over a 50 ring gauge currently). So if you are interested in the NOLA, call Don Juan Cigar Co. (504-889-2600) and they can help you out!
We also sampled a limited release called the LP-1803 (in honor of the Louisiana Purchase). I will publish another post describing this blend in more detail as well. Thanks again to Don Juan Cigar Co. for the launch event. Check out some of the event pictures:
In addition, I just came back from Houston visiting some great cigar shops including Richmond Avenue Cigar. I came across a fellow cigar enthusiast named Robert who was kind enough to do a YouTube video of his commentary on the LP-1803. Check out the video below:
I did not realize how dense Houston is with cigar shops. My brother, friend and I ended the night at Downing Street Cigar Bar/Pub with some D-Dubs and a nice small-batch whiskey from California called St. George. It was a great pairing. We hope that Houston will welcome Devil's Weed in the coming months (Cigar Cigar! in SugarLand already carries us so if you live there, you can visit them!).
Saludos,
Luis
