By Chris | Nicetightash.com

Nice Tight Ash video from Expo 2010A month ago Brian and I attended the Famous Smoke Cigar Expo 2010. This two day event included a VIP dinner, free craft beer, excellent food, great cigars and much more. The video below is our attempt to document the event; hoping to give those that could not attend an idea of how the festivities went down.

Looking back on the event Brian and I are still impressed with just how well it was put together. It just seemed like everything was thought of. We’re not sure on the exact number of attendees, but it was much lower than others which made talking to the manufacturers and reps much easier.

Seattle Post Intelligencer | After Dark
Kinky Friedman

Texas country singer, novelist, humorist, cigar peddler and former gubernatorial candidate Richard S. "Kinky" Friedman hasn't written a new song in at least 20 years. But such tunes as "The Ballard of Charles Whitman" (the Texas tower sniper), "Ride 'Em Jewboy" and his cover of Chinga Chavin's "A**hole from El Paso" have brought him a cult following that extends as far away as Europe.

"This European tour we did last year was really something," Friedman, 65, said by phone from his Texas ranch. "It was all sold out and we went to seven different countries. And the audiences were very young and they knew every lyric and they'd read every book. Story continues here

Good "Start Here" Cigars - Part 1
Saturday, July 24 2010

By Gary Korb

start hereIt seems that about this time every year I get a lot of requests from readers who are new to smoking premium cigars and looking for some good suggestions. It's one of the things I enjoy doing most, because there's no greater reward than helping turn someone on to a good cigar, especially if they like it enough to stick with it.

But recommendations aren't always for beginners. There are plenty of experienced cigar smokers who continue to seek out new cigars, whether they be new releases or cigars that have been around a while which, for some reason, they may have missed or overlooked.

For this article, I've compiled a list of "start here," or "try this one first" cigars. In any event, if you've ever been curious about the following brands, you may want to start with these (listed alphabetically).

 
Smoked Out
Friday, July 23 2010

by Nick Foulkes | Newsweek online

Man smoking in a COSAThey are called COSAS—an acronym for Comfortable Outdoor Smoking Area. And according to Jemma Freeman, the sixth-generation owner of the London-based Havana cigar importer Hunters & Frankau, “They are opening up in London at the rate of one a week.”

Havana may be the cradle of cigar making, but London is, arguably, the city where these golden-brown tubes of Cuban tobacco achieved their apotheosis as the gentleman’s postprandial pursuit. The bon vivant Edward VII ushered in a new era of pleasure after the death of his austere mother, Queen Victoria, with the memorable words, “Gentlemen, you may smoke.” A cigar was of course the constant companion of the greatest Englishman of the 20th century, Winston Churchill. And now it is Sir Terence Conran, the celebrated British designer, author, and restaurateur—seldom seen without a Hoyo de Monterrey Epicure No. 2—who wears the mantle of most famous living British cigar smoker.  Story continues here
