Can’t See The Cigar Band – Blind Taste Test

Broadcasting LIVE from the Toscano Cigar Sound Stage in Salem, New Hampshire… Tasting a cigar brand without their cigar band on it definitely makes you think… and that is what we will do today. Plus we got some good news and bad news from Dave & Barry.

We smoke two cigars from the care package as we pit cigar band A vs cigar band B. Only one will emerge victorious and those of you smoking along with us get to vote. The details were included in your cigar bag!

We will have this and all the usual suspects including Versus, Offer of the Day, Cigar News and a peek into the Asylum.
