At the beginning of the year, Black Works Studio and Black Label Trading released several new things; the Santa Muerte into the core line, the limited S&R Barberpole, and another cigar that perhaps didn’t get the recognition it deserves. The Rorschach line had another blend added to it, the Rorschach Sumatra. The original blend features […]
Caldwell is at it again with a limited release of Blind Man’s Bluff. Remember his banger of a cigar, ‘This Is Trouble?’ He has returned with a limited offering called the Blind Man’s Bluff Deluxe Toro. Robert Caldwell has announced this is the first installment in a three-part series. Although the series has no name […]

I wanted to draw attention to the first quarter of 2023 and what the OGT Cigar Society has brought us. […]
There is a story behind this. Each month, I strive to put the spotlight on a major talent in our industry by sending out a five-pack of either custom blends or vitolas or limited runs by some of the greatest cigar makers of our time. 2023 has kicked off that way with blends like the […]
